Here to keep tabs on which conspiracy theories are prominent these days. Seriously can’t believe flat earth is still out there.

@Marc_Fournier1 @mwill340 @alexboge No, it was you asking multiple questions about how curvature is perceived along different axes, and how those axes are determined, and me answering you directly. That’s a discussion. You asked. I answered. It’s not a “lecture” simply because you don’t understand the answers.

Curvature? ✔️ Bottom first behind the horizon? ✔️ Impossible to zoom back in? ✔️ ☑️

@Marc_Fournier1 @mwill340 @alexboge There’s no contradiction. I already explained this. The electric towers pictures you are referencing are an example of the effect of curvature on the Z-axis. Curvature is NOT perceptible to the human eye along the X-axis, remember? We had this discussion.

@StupidSCOTUS @mwill340 @alexboge But yet you guys show photos of series of electric towers in line that seem to curve which would make the curve very accentuated and you claim it as proof. You guys say it’s too big to see in some answers and present those contradictory pics at the same time, which is it?

@Marc_Fournier1 @mwill340 @alexboge For example, have you ever been on a ship and sighted a distant 200ft tall lighthouse light right on the waterline? If you have, you’ve no doubt noticed that it’s below eye level when it first appears over the horizon. That is only possible on a globe, not a flat plane.

@Marc_Fournier1 @mwill340 @alexboge I’m not suggesting that the ocean doesn’t LOOK flat. It does. As does the horizon at sea level. But if you’ve ever actually tried to measure anything over long distances across the ocean you’d understand that its apparent local geometry doesn’t match its actual global geometry.

@mwill340 @Marc_Fournier1 @alexboge He needed to say something but didn’t actually have an intelligent rebuttal after I answered all of his questions directly. Flerfs often post replies like this when they are painted into a corner. Then they disappear.

@Marc_Fournier1 @StupidSCOTUS @alexboge For over 1000 years now, its been common knowledge that the earth is a sphere. Are you suggesting that some secret society fabricated this? Whats the motive? Why would they make it up? For fun?

@Keetb999k I always thought that WAS the popular belief. It’s what I’ve always understood to be reality.
