If you look at pictures of the moon landing, you'll see that the American flag planted into the ground is waving in the wind - but there's no atmosphere on the moon so those pictures were 100% fake

How is it possible that people still don't know that there was a horizontal wire along the top of the flag to hold it out?

That fact, combined with the astronauts twisting the pole into place and the Moon's low gravity easily explains why it appears to be rippling in the wind. The flags had creases in them from being folded up around the pole for four days.

People who believe the Moon landings were faked have a room temperature IQ.

Stepdad and I went fishing with a guide years back. I was 10 or 11. He kept saying how the moon landing was fake because the flag had to be held up by a wire and if it was actually real the flag would wave.

After the trip my stepdad looked at me and could tell I was confused. All he said was don't you dare ask me a question as stupid as what that guy said.

Nice try.

The American flag *was* rippling as though FLOWING AIR (as in a certain movie studio) was moving it.

I won't even get into how such a flimsy Lunar Module slapped together with duct tape, construction paper / curtain rods / gold Reynolds Wrap and magic fairy dust survived the studio prop men moving it without the contraption toppling over from the studio breeze.
