I think the conspiracy this exposes is Someone or group is trying to convince people the earth is flat.
By saying silly things that are trivially demonstrated wrong?!
The true purpose of the flat earth psyop is the opposite!
It is to ensure that no one seriously examines or discusses the subject because it is valuable to do so. It is labeled a "conspiracy" (when it plainly isn't one) for all the same reasons other legitimate things are - to slander, suppress, and disable general knowledge (and expression!) of them.
Tell us nobody ever explained to you why Latitude and Longitude are the only way to predict surface point-locations on Earth,
without telling us nobody ever explained to you why Latitude and Longitude are the only way to predict surface point-locations on Earth.
This isn't about prediction, it's about measurement. A flat map works better than a globe shaped one - which is why our maps are flat.
Assuming the world is flat, the latitude lines are circles and the longitude lines are axial lines from the north pole. The arbitrary coordinate system we use has absolutely no bearing on the shape of the world. This is an encouraged erroneous conflation.
Wrong answer hillbilly.
The coordinates system for CORRECT SURFACE AREA and surface point LOCATION prediction is NOT arbitrary.
You're just an illiterate, innumerate hick who nobody ever taught how Longitude and Latitude operate to successfully predict on the surface of the planet.
