But if it shows a round earth, it’s CGI, right? I know there are pictures out the cockpit of an SR-71, I’d find some, but you’ll just claim CGI, so what’s the point? Maybe one of these days, they’ll take a large group of idiots to space, so you can all see for yourselves.


Dude Rebel doesn't seriously believe this

He's just mocking the flat earthers

There are? Have you ever seen what a SR-71 pilot wears? Kind of hard to snap off a Kodak in a full space suit.

Brian Shul claims he would sit for hours in his suit practicing taking pictures.

Even the chessboard is flat.


Coincidence? I THINK NOT!

I'm not seeing much of a curve.

See?

Flat earth seems silly until you are honest with yourself.

It amazes me people think we live on a ball that’s spinning thousand of miles per hour through space.

Call somebody in Australia and ask them if they are upside down.

Of course the earth is flat. To think otherwise is ridiculous. People aren’t upside down in New Zealand. Not that hard to figure out.

It may be a circle, but it’s a flat circle.

Really is scary how many crazy people are out there. I guess they've always been there but we just have access to them like never before now.


I dont think there are any more that are that crazy or believe in things like flat earth. I just believe there are more people who crave attention and are willing to go all in on some different view or live some alternative way just to get that attention.

If you are not smart enough, attractive enough or talented enough to obtain the attention or gratification that you desire, then just go the opposite way.


Do you really think someone wants 300 piercings in their face?

I just do not understand how people think the earth is flat.

You can quite literally sail around it. Pilots have flown around it. SR-71 blackbird pilots and U-2 pilots have talked about flying around the earth.

It really bothers me that there are adults out there that think the earth is flat

Are you a flat earther or are you just being contrarian? I really hope you’re just being contrarian here and this is not the 1% time you’re espousing you’re beliefs
