For me, it’s largely about the lack of curvature as seen across the stretch of water, as explained above
Radius 3959 miles, surface must curve at a certain rate, and we observe that it doesn’t
I had seen many videos of others doing the same online and I was open to the idea so i went to see for myself and confirmed that yep the math doesn’t check out
Also, in these years since I started following the topic, the moon missions we’ve seen and any other space project has only confirmed my suspicion that nasa and the rest of them are one hundred percent lying about what they’re doing
I’d go off further but I’m short on time and really they’re not the smoking gun
If you do live near a large body of water, keep it in mind and go test it for yourself
The earth is smoother than a cue ball, relatively speaking
We’re observing across a span of water so your mountains and valleys doesn’t factor anyways
perspective and ocular resolution to answer your comment above about the sun disappearing
I just don’t care anymore to take the time for people who don’t take the time themselves
I’ve had many a discussion on the various dot win communities about it, and elsewhere
Your question was boring and uninformed
Eric Dubay has more than enough material on the subject if you care to earnestly explore someday
@Witsitgetsit is doing a flat earth debate on infowars in two days, maybe check that out or see his “Maskeraid tour” video which is a quick crash course and warm up to the subject
To answer your question about rate of curvature, it’s 8 inches per mile, squared
Square the mile not the 8, so it’s 8 inches of drop for the first mile then 32, 72, 128, 200, 288, 392, 512, 648, then 800 inches of drop at ten miles
We can do long distance observations across a span of water that far exceed ten miles they show zero drop
Distant buildings that should be fully obscured by the earth itself due to supposed curvature, in view, whether it be a hot summer day or a frozen winter day
If you live near a large body of water, I always recommend that one go see this for themselves
I can send you videos of others doing the same but it really hammers it home if you go see and test for yourself
Be well

Haven't watched more than a 3 min clip when he talks about Baphomet and rituals and the dress wearing
Heard he also talks about pyramids being built on hot springs and harnessing energy
Also that he said ancient Egypt had electricity and wifi
Idk if I'll do this long listen, but came to the dot wins to check if we have any threads about it
(((Twitter))) poll asking the question
Nah, this place is a fed honeypot, obviously
Just been banging out on Twitter lately but it’s missing the small community feel that the dot win communities bring
This still feels more like home
I check in on gab too but idk
I already have the info I need
Don’t need to keep beating the JQ and flat earth horses
Earth spins in one direction only
Hot air balloons, helicopters, birds, insects
All fly any and all directions during the same flights
You think that’s inertia? Read your linked definition again
Or don’t, because you’re a shill
Savman the globe shill shows up on every flat earth mention and drops some double digit iq shit with condescending tone and ad hom sprinkled on top
Be better, savman

Okay so basic trig and spatial recognition
We agree on the formula to calculate the rate at which the surface should curve; there’s no disagreement there, as there’s plenty of calculators online available to do exactly that
So my big issue with it is I can go see for myself with my own eyes that I can see distant objects that are too far
I’ve seen the videos of the refraction due to temperature and it does distort the image to the observer, matching up with my decades of lived experience, but despite the minor refractions it isn’t remotely close enough to explain the observed evidence
Lines of perspective on a planar surface
Inverse square law
We use “their own math” to disprove the existence of surface curvature and this is where I’m struggling to figure out how this part is difficult
People say “check the math” and so we did, and that made us flat earthers
I hope it's at least clear that I'm earnestly looking for the truth and that maintaining the integrity of our communities is important to me, and I wouldn't want to deter people with well poisoning nonsense on purpose
Normally a piece of evidence comes along with this
As far as I’m concerned, we’ve falsified the radius and have shown that our surface does not curve at the rate it must for a globe with a 3959 mile radius
Not only that, we aren’t observing ANY surface curve
Haven’t been around much at all lately but just saw the pinned FE ban post, so I assume you only have the one particular mod in mind or are there others?
I’m not yet convinced that removing u/clemaneuvers based off one screw up is warranted, but also not completely off the table, as it’s quite a major red flag and sort of a deal breaker for the position of community moderator, but you have to keep in mind, 925, that as strongly as you and I are certain that this world is the planar non rotating world we know it to be, they believe the spinning globe and can only conclude that people like you and I know it’s a globe and are trying to negatively effect the integrity of the community
u/clemaneuvers made a pinned post about it, described in great detail their position, and left it up to the community to decide
That still sounds to me like someone who has the best interests of our dot win communities in mind, taking the above into consideration
Be well, fren
❤️
You’ve been the biggest disappointment, TS
it’s disappointing when I see anyone defend the spinning globe because I’m so set in my planar earth belief, but it’s just different when you defend it the way you do because I don’t think you’re a shill and that you must genuinely think it’s still the Big Bang spinning globe after having earnestly considered all sides of the argument
I know you’ve been around for years like I have and I guess I just want to say, if you can prove the surface is curving as described on a ball with a radius of 3959 miles which is approximately 8 inches per mile squared (accurate enough for at least a few hundred miles; more than enough for the purposes of this discussion) then I’d really appreciate the breakdown
It’s been a couple years now for me living with flat earth and my research and experience since first going down this particular rabbit hole has only further confirmed my planar and non rotating beliefs
Anytime flat earth comes up in our communities it’s met with the same old character attacks, distractions, and invalid rebuttals passed off as proofs
If flat earth is that dumb, then why is it so hard to prove the spinning globe?
I don’t expect you’ll have interest in re-examining what the globe skeptics have to say, but I wish you and your loved ones well no matter what shape our world is
Be well, fren
❤️
They say planes would have to travel across thousands of miles of harsh Antarctic lands and if there was an emergency there would be nowhere to land
It’s equally surprising, disappointing, and pathetic that people anywhere let alone here ON A CONSPIRACY forum, don’t question this
Zero polar circumnavigationa completed and when you point that out, they’ll say “it’s been done tons of times… a five second google search could have answered that for you… is this how stupid all flat earthers are?!!”
And it’ll be a link to a 2 hour “documentary” that hardly has any flight footage whatsoever and what little is there isn’t unique to Antarctica
Also, the production company’s website is 404d and anyone who takes a critical look at this should only come to the same conclusion that it doesn’t remotely come close to passing the sniff test
Yet flat earthers are the ones who believe in nonsense
Sorry for asking for any evidence of a globe whatsoever that can stand up to the slightest scrutiny
Nothing gets shilled like flat earth
It’s pretty obvious when you talk flat earth on Twitter, as I can see who these shills follow, etc
Weird how the same accounts pop up and cruising through their history they only seem to care to interact with flat earth topic posts, shilling for the spinning globe fairy tale
Wonder why that could be…
The same faggots come out here on the dot wins, too
That's just one of those things that both true on a ball and a plane
The floor/ground/water appears to rise up as you look more distant while the top comes down until they meet at the vanishing line of the horizon
Place a camera on the ground of a football field then record yourself walking away in a straight line
You'll disappear bottom first
We know the football field is level
