Your origional post was an obviously stupid premise,

it was ill-phrased ... just trying to understand what part is "science" you think is fake. not the geometry, part - apparently ?

If we live on a sphere with a circumference of 24,901 miles then the geometry is inarguable and this curve should be observable on land and water over a given distance.

according to a quick google search...

Visual daytime observations show that the minimum altitude at which curvature of the horizon can be detected is at or slightly below 35,000 ft, providing that the field of view is wide (60 degrees ) and nearly cloud free.

you say "bullshit!"

you say:

should be observable on land

no , not at all. standing on a perfectly smooth ball as large as the Earth... you would see zero curvature - technically there will be a 0.12 degree arc, but you won't be able to see that with your eyes.

and water over a given distance

no bro... standing on a huge ball as big as the earth... the arc is so small you won't see it.

you would have better luck to see the curvature of the Earth ...as it drops-out over the horizon....

/Hope that helps.

edit/ps.

let me rephrase:

https://www.indy100.com/viral/flat-earth-lake-michigan-proves-curvature-8388096

technically, the horizon will bend - by a 0.12 degree arc, if you can see it.

but when you stand on a ball as big as the earth, you will need some kind of instrument to detect the any arching of the horizon.

for all intents and purposes... the horizon is going to appear "flat".

you say:

no , not at all. standing on a perfectly smooth ball as large as the Earth... you would see zero curvature - 360 degrees of perfectly level horizon. the horizon doesn't ever curve or "bend".

your premise is false.

you have a false understanding of science.

and water over a given distance

no bro... standing on a huge ball... perfectly smooth... you will only see a 360 degrees of a "flat" horizon.

the horizon will not appear to "bend".

https://twitter.com/more_shower/status/1567612247760838661

You will always be the center of the horizon - i.e., 360 degrees of "flat" horizon.

And yes... you CAN see the curvature of the Earth ...as it drops-out over the horizon....

#curvature != #horizon

imagine standing on a boulder. the horizon of the boulders bends very rapidly.

but when you stand on a ball as big as the earth, you will need some kind of instrument to detect the any bending of the horizon.

for all intents and purposes... it's going to appear "flat".

(technically bending by a 0.12 degree arc, if you can se it)

no bro... that's now how it works. the HORIZON never "bends".

not ever.

wait... i just got it....

you guys think the horizon should bend!!!
