why don't you guys go and research flat earth for yourselves? why are you so scared to do it? I feel that maybe you won't be able to handle the truth when you come to learn it
you just keep trolling card and make your own insecurities stand out in your attacks at him.
We are watching all these videos card is posting, that's research right there.
It's just all too laughable. Everything is handwaved away with magic and buzzwords that the flat-earthers can't explain and don't understand. How many times has card used the word "perspective" on this forum? He still has no idea what perspective actually is. He has no clue why railroad tracks appear to converge, to him it's just "laws of perspective" with no explanation, no numbers, nothing you can actually measure or work with. If you asked him to calculate anything related to it, he would be at a complete loss because he has no quantifiable knowledge.
So no, I'm not scared that suddenly all my understanding of geometry will vanish and I will somehow get confused by angles and distances. I'm not worried that garbage like "vibrational density" will suddenly mean something that you can actually measure and quantify. I'm not concerned that "magic" will suddenly become a better explanation for observable phenomena than hard science and math. What you don't realize is that we are fully aware of flat earth and we see how stupid it is. It's not something we actually avoid, there's no knowledge there that could affect us in any significant way. We simply have a better understanding of the how the world around us works, so we see the massive errors in all of these flat earth arguments.
It would be like trying to convince us that rain is produced by pissing flying unicorns, rather than condensation of water vapour into clouds. Nobody would be afraid that they would suddenly start believing in flying unicorns with immense bladders, the idea can be simply dismissed as childish fantasy until some actual, real, extraordinary proof is presented. The flat earth theory is no different, and nobody has yet presented any proof. If anything, everything card has presented so far has only convinced everyone else that flat-earthers are by and large imbeciles. Things that they consider unsolvable are easily solved at a glance by an average person. Things that they consider eye-opening and mind-blowing are mundane and obvious. With every bit of research into flat earther, it becomes harder and harder to treat people who believe in it with any shred of respect. The only thing I've learned from flat-earthers is that they are not my intellectual peers and their thoughts and ideas can be quickly and easily dismissed as childish and naive.
