Have any of the flat earthers ever explained why the powers that be are hiding the fact that the earth is flat from the masses?
The one guy said earlier that it's a battle against God and that essentially round earthers have taken the devils bait

Start waking and let me know when you fall off the edge.

Literally anybody that's been on top of a mountain or in an airplane can see for themselves that this theory is fricking nuts, I'm not sure why we're even entertaining this guy
It's weird that I can stand on Pinnacle Mountain in central Arkansas and not see beyond about 5-7 miles, let alone downtown Little Rock or... I don't know.... CHINA.
Same with flying in an airplane. It's weird that you can actually watch the sunset 30,000 ft above ground level, isn't it? Doesn't make sense at all if earth were flat.

There's even a clip in this thread of an astrophysicist examining why you CAN'T see the curve from there. So which is it?
Are you literally just making up a curve in your head? You think it should be so it is? Because even people who believe it's curved admit they don't see it

Anyone that says that the earth is flat is straight dumb. Everyone knows it is donut shaped.

Everyone is not on the same side.
It’s like a sheet of plywood and we are suspended while the crystalline celestial structure revolves around us. There is no round earth.

Hell, I could see curvature from the top observation deck at the Burj Khalifa. Your bullshite is so easy to negate. You have to be trolling.

I went there too and didn't see it. You don't see a curve. You don't.
Look at that horizon

Flat horizon, eye level. Where is that damn curve?

The only thing I've learned in this thread is that you're retarded..
But it's an entertaining form of retardation.
Please continue.... Please tell all of us sheep what else we've been taught that is complete bullshite.
Are volcanoes real? Are the seasons real? Do penguins exist?
Did Oswald act alone? Hell..did Booth really kill Lincoln or was it a hoax?
Did the space shuttle actually blow up or was that just for show?
Inquiring minds want to know..
Tell us..please! I'm thirsty for your VAST knowledge

No my argument was the stars rotate over seasons and mark them. Which they do. Long before you entered this thread and said that was wrong. It's not wrong. You were wrong. You say they didn't. You added that they also rotate daily which is extraneous information to any of my point
The picture you posted is an illustration of how the big dipper might appear at roughly the same time of day/night (call it dusk) by season. It doesn't take 3 months for the big dipper to shift 90 degrees. What Obtuse1 is trying to explain to you is that it makes a full revolution every day, plus a little bit more. It's that little bit more that adds up to about 90 degrees over the course of 3 months. It's not "extraneous" information, it is information that is vital to understanding what's really happening.
My money is still on you being a troll, but if you aren't then you are incredibly stupid.

Not a flat earther but I keep seeing this one posted so I looked it up. Sydney to LA is 7500 miles and 13 hours 45 mins. Sydney to Johannesburg is 6860 miles and 14 hours 5 mins. What am I missing nerds of the OT?

Sure. I am right and I encourage you to have an open mind and investigate things. I'm specifically saying don't believe me, go find out for yourself. Which isn't what the narrative says, it just says you're an idiot if you don't believe.
Volcanoes and seasons and penguins are real. Oswald did not act alone and that's actually where the term "conspiracy theory" comes from. If you remove the negative connotations and understand that at one point it was just the two basic words for what they mean. Conspiracy = plan by 2 or more people to commit a crime. Theory = speculation. So obviously conspiracies happen every day and people speculate on them. But after JFK the CIA sent a memo to dismiss any people who questioned the lone gunmen theory, literally basic conspiracy theorists. For just what the term literally means. But over time you keep belittling people and it becomes a label, a meme and it arrests thought. We see this still today, anything they don't want you to know is labeled "conspiracy theory"
I haven't looked into the Challenger. I encourage people to look into things themselves.
