Real question: what is your solution to keep bad actors from flooding the forum with obviously ridiculous nonsense until it dies?
I struggle to give an example, given what we're talking about, but say someone puts forth the theory that "air is actually poisonous to humans and that's what's causing the recent excess deaths"? Then they spam the forum with unsourced, cherry picked examples ("people live longer at high altitudes", "100 yo man holds his breath 8 hours a day" "people live longer since deforestation started" etc). Pretty soon, anyone looking at real conspiracies (finding info and analysing it, which takes much longer than just making it up like I just did) are completely put off and go elsewhere while the forum is filled with low effort, history channel-esque memes.
I don't even mind that kind of stuff, per se, but it's not comparable to actual conspiracies that we have good evidence for but can't prove due to intentional obfuscation (like the Wuhan lab leak).
Most FE posters are selecting their stuff from repositories of nonsense created over years by a few prolific FE content creators, the ones who come up with the "proofs". What you describe above is more like someone making up an original claim that is demonstrated to be untrue quite quickly. It would not stand up to much scrutiny, and they probably would not have endless supply of back up "proofs" to spout in gish-gallop arguments like FE people do. If they keep spamming the same comment over and over again and ignoring discussion of the comment it would be reported as spam and removed.
I'm familiar with the names of 8-10 flat earthers on here and I review the content whenever I come across it. I've literally never seen anything spammed from FE. On a few occasions I will post the same link to 2 people if it's applicable to multiple convos im having. But that rarely ever happens from me.
Source? Oh right, I forgot. You don't provide sources for your claims.

I'm with him up until he brings up The Electric Rainbow Book and says that Wuhan was the first city blanketed with 5G.
I tried reading that book and stopped reading it, it seemed to make a lot of claims it was not substantiating. Some claims it made are substantiated in other places I've read, such as what he says about The Spanish Flu experiments. But the author's more original contributions about electric illness didn't seem well substantiated within the book. I will have to go back and look again, I always meant to give it another chance, but moved on.
As to the Wuhan being first city to be blanketed by 5G thing. Is it true? I don't know that it is. And if it was true - there was no big outbreak of illness in Wuhan. There were a few people who suffered from severe pneumonia in a city with poor air quality. And then there was the propaganda videos. In the end though, Wuhan never had the big spike in illness and death. Why not, if it was the first city to be blaneketd in 5G and 5G causes pneumonia?
Cowan doesn't bring up how many (all?) of the people we are told that died from "Covid" actually died from the crazy treatments they were given to try and fight a fake novel "virus". No one was given known, effective treatments because doctors were told from the start that the usual treatments for pneumonia (covid is pnemonia BTW) would not work because they only work for pneumonia casued by known viruses, not this new virus. So they were given some of the most toxic experimental cocktails of antibiotics and other strong drugs ever given, often in over dose amounts, placed on respirators that have a tiny long term survival rate etc etc.
Why doesn't Doctor Cowan mention how perhaps a vast majority of the people we are told died from covid were actually murdered by their doctors?
The point that matters is the slippery slope fallacy that if one topic (FE) is banned, which has a whole .win devoted to that topic, that other topics will follow suit in reddit power tripping Marxist mod fashion.
Don't get distracted by oh look a squirrel!
This one topic, FE, is a kookifying distraction away from the intended purpose of this .win. Removing it simply allows for its stated purpose. (At least in theory)
Please do and link it here. Before we go any further.
