There is plenty of fun conspiracy theories relating to things like where the hell is Jimmy Hoffa or https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Gareth_Williams or literally hundreds of corporate and government fuckups doing blatantly illegal poo poo over the years imo. But people who scratch their heads over whether the Moon is real or Hollow Earth or reptilians just baffle me, I can't help but assume that 99% are badly trolling and the rest are schizophrenic. Edit: if you assume that at least some of these people are for real, then I really wouldn't want to even try to simulate their mentality. Absolute failure of education is pretty obvious but it's some kind of a weird epistemology problem at the core imo. I get questioning what the government tells you, but when you are dismissing pretty basic scientific knowledge that is corroborated by multiple people and factions through history, where do you stop?

Murray Mantoinette posted:No joke talking to people or asking them questions requires IRB approval. And not questions about their medical history or whatever but just, like, “does this sentence sound grammatical to you?” or whatever. This is the case in a lot of places. Put in the application and get ethics clearance.

What do they think happens when you fly around the world? Like, the plane just gets halfway there and then secretly changes direction to fly back? Are all airline pilots secretly in on the hoax? Like, I take off from California and fly east to London, then east again to Kuala Lumpur and then keep going east to land in California again. Like, how is this reconciled with a flat Earth? It boggles the mind

Earth is just material plane and airplanes remain stationary while trained wizards cast the teleport spell. Everything you see like flying up in the sky is an illusion spell.

Like 6 years ago I had a coworker who would claim that the Earth is flat. We also had quite a few coworkers from the other side of the planet. How embarrassing. I got drunk with her at a bar one night and yelled at her about it. No regrets.

Thundercracker posted:Have you pointed out to him if we go by that shoe curvature than the earth would be the size of one of those oversized inflatable beachballs? they will say it’s a joke and shift goalposts to water curvature on oceans or lakes or w/e. it doesn’t matter though cause they don’t actually understand scale, or they wouldn’t forward these arguments. it makes sense that they are overwhelmingly religious, the sort of people who think the earth is the centre of the universe, only a couple thousand years old, with the sun a few thousand km away. they are unable to grasp the very large and old, the complexity of everything. Most subscribe to other conspiracy theories as well, not just flat earth

Robokomodo posted:What is people’s reasoning that the earth is flat, as in if it were, why would people in power need to hide it? Do they believe there is a mastermind behind it? I can’t imagine who would benefit from keeping it hidden. Shipping companies? Airlines? Who has to gain from a round earth as opposed to a flat earth? the Jews, op

Robokomodo posted:Can you ask your co-worker what his justification for the secrecy is? Hollow-Earthers have something to do with Naziism, Moon Landing Hoaxers have something about military superiority, what the gently caress is it with Flat-earthers? The flat-earther I know IRL believes that NASA and the government are agents of Satan, because the Bible describes the Earth as resting on pillars with a firmament or some such poo poo so that means it's flat. Basically it boils down to Satan is trying to convince the world that the Earth is actually round to disprove the Bible and make people lose faith in God

Tell them to come to northwest Ohio, where it’s so flat you can see the curvature of the earth from a second-story window. The surrounding landscape, not the earth. (Regarding flatness)

You should buy a chemical sterilizer and slip it into his drink when he's not looking. You'll have to do this multiple times over a period of weeks to make sure it takes.
