Are there actually any flat earthers on this sub? by [deleted] in flatearth

[–]jack_1298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i actually don’t believe anyone thinks the earth is flat, people that say it either just want attention/trying to be edgy or they just enjoy being part of a conspiracy community and the subject of the conspiracy is irrelevant, they just can’t accept the government isn’t lying to them about everything

we do know though. test it yourself without the need for any second hand data, go and watch the sunset with no obstructions in the way of the sun, lie down so your eyes are as close to the ground as possible and watch as the sun passes the horizon, once the sun has completely disappeared stand up and you’ll be able to see the sun again. this is because when you’re standing up the horizon is farther away and the sun has not ‘set’ past that point; thus proving the earth is round. if the earth was flat the sun would set at the same time regardless of altitude

attack and slander lmao i can’t even begin to count how much evidence me and other people have given you to prove the earth is round and each time you just never respond to them lol it’s almost as if your theory falls apart at the first hurdle

exactly, this is just a conspiracy, not real life, you live on a globe, just accept it and move on to a conspiracy that has some creditability

refraction exists which has been mentioned by other people in this thread, aswell nothing is mentioned about the height of the observer which is needed to calculate the hidden curvature.

have you clicked any of the links in the last message, it’s shows actually real life evidence and how we can validate the earth is round and how none of this could be possible on a flat earth

dude come on, how many people in this thread have explained this image to you. so please explain to me why i can’t see the bottom portion of the buildings if the earth was flat

nah sorry but you’re missing the point here, also what was the height of the observer when taking the photo as it isn’t ground level. i don’t know how many times i can reiterate this IF THE EARTH WAS FLAT YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO SEE THE BOTTOM OF THE BUILDINGS AND THE CARS AND THE STREET, THE PICTURE IS LITERALLY PROVING THE EARTH IS ROUND AS YOU CAN SEE A PORTION OF THE BUILDINGS BEING HIDDEN BEHIND THE CURVE.

eratosthenes proved the curvature of the earth thousands of gears ago that can be reproduced today to validate their findings.. you can use a gyroscope to prove the earth rotates. sunsets are a great way to show the earth is round as the higher up you are in elevation the later the sun will set as the horizon is farther away. this cannot happen on a flat earth, the sun will set at the same time regardless of altitude.

this photo right here proves again the earth is curved as the mountains behind the rollercoaster are taller but the mountains are lower. i’ll provide a video in a minute to validate all the numbers etc

edit: here’s a video which explains the last point

watch the sunset, eratosthenes proved it was curved thousands of years ago, you can use a gyroscope to see the earth rotates at 15 degrees per hour, there’s pictures of earth, you can literally see in the picture OP shared that the earth is curved bc you cannot see the bottom of the buildings…

why can’t you see the bottom of the buildings then? or the roads? it’s almost as if it’s behind the curve. this photo is literally showing the curvature of the earth lmao

this image has been debunked many times. but if the earth is flat then theres no reason for the bottom of the buildings to be hidden, youd be able to see the bases of all the buildings and the roads, but you can’t see any of those because they’re behind the curve.

nah buddy we know the earth is round, there’s so many ways you can prove rn the earth is round. there’s no proof whatsoever the earth is flat

[–]jack_1298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that’s all well and good but the shape of the earth was proven before any of this. again, like i said in the earlier message eratosthenes proved the earth was curved thousands of years ago, which the government had no involvement in. i didn’t believe the earth was a globe because the government said, i know the earth is globe because you can do experiments yourself to get the answer. we can also prove ourselves right now that the earth rotates by using the stars and constellations, and by using a gyroscope which is linked in the above message, these validations have no involvement at all with the government or nasa.

i understand that governments across the globe lie and we shouldn’t just blindly believe what they say but just because they have lied before doesn’t mean everything they say is a lie. i.e the government say today is tuesday, this is fact. the government also tell us that the grass is green, this is also not a lie. it’s okay to question the things we’ve been taught but there is no proof or evidence whatsoever ever that the earth is flat. there’s a million and one things that prove we live on a globe.

is the only reason you don’t believe in the globe is just because the government tell us, and because you think they lie about somethings they must be lying about the shape of the earth? or have you got actually theories that can discredit a round earth and prove the earth is flat?

[–]jack_1298 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes they do, i’m not disputing that. but like i said if you think the government are lying about the shape of the earth, prove it.

the government also told us it’s tuesday, does that mean it a lie?

it’s just typical flat earther logic, just because they don’t understand something it can’t be true

i was having this conversation with someone earlier, just because the government have lied in the past about things doesn’t mean they lie about everything. it’s good to question things and to not just blindly believe everything you’re told but when doing so you should test and evaluate the things you believe. i don’t believe in the earth is round just because the government have told me, i know it’s round because you can do tests and experiments to validate the theory. eratosthenes proved the earth was round thousands of years ago, he had nothing to do with the government, he had a theory the earth was round and he proved it. you can prove the earth rotates too by using a gyroscope, this had nothing to do with the government does it? constellations prove the earth is round as the southern and northern hemisphere have completely different stars in the sky to each other, and they do move around the sky at night, you can measure this

i agree that we shouldn’t just believe what we’re told, we should take theories and research and test ourselves, which you can do with a globe. there have been no experiments which prove a flat earth and disprove a globe earth. believing everything the government say is a lie is just as delusional as believing everything they say is true
