Trying to say that earlier...how big does a skyscraper look at 3k miles away... But on with the downvotes


What are you trying to say?

What camera can zoom 20+ miles with any kind of resolution?

I mean...

How does someone fly or sail west, keep flying or sailing, and then end up back where they started? Did they go to the underside of the Earth?

Like any of these wackjobs could do it if they wanted to. Go take a series of "short" flights. Fly from Los Angeles to Hawaii to Tokyo to Dubai to Paris to Atlanta to Los Angeles. Did you go on the underside of the Earth? No? Hmmmmmm.

Many arguments are irrelevant or just wrong.

You couldn't see a skyscraper 3000 miles away anyway.

I just watched this video and holy shite, it really is as simple as these flat earth people aren't considering topography.

You are just absolutely bamboozled by refraction (and possibly a bit of camera trickery) aren't you?

If the Earth was flat, and there were no obstructions in your way, you could easily do so with telescopes that are readily available, assuming a flat earth.

And yet no one ever has.

Yes, but fricktards like this "believe" that its all a conspiracy and that it is faked by THEM.

I was talking about something he could literally do. Today.

You don't know what refraction is. How is a perfect flat non mirror straight ahead image somehow just a refraction from below a curve?

I thought refraction was bad when I talked about it. You guys switch back and forth conveniently over whether refraction/atmosphere exists and is real or is a laughable concept

You couldn't...the sky scraper would be smaller than grass on the horizon and the atmosphere covers them at less than 100 miles...then there's refraction.

It's a bad argument

Topography? It's a plane or salt flat. The crust of the earth is supposedly curving down. The topography is a flat plane. There are not hills of dirt piled on the crust curving back up on the other end. It's just as thin and flat there too.

Wow. Ok yes the plane is flat, but there are multiple rock formation changes underneath it to make it flat past the curvature. Now I know this is a troll job.

Do flat earthers believe in plate tectonics?

Yes I have. I've been an expert in everything while everyone else has asked dumb questions and skipped main points.

You haven't addressed that the main argument of disappearing over the curve is wrong. That's the round earth argument. But you can see past whatever curve.

You haven't addressed that your topography point was wrong just now. You just keep on going. Earth must be round even though you can see it's not, because I can't explain why your dick doesn't get hard. I'm not your God. Look at the problems with the round earth arguments. Look at the problems with geometry. Stop moving past them. They are important.

How about an island? Could you see Easter Island (1663 feet highest elevation) from a beach in South America or Hawaii with a telescope?

I don't know which video you're talking about. One had several different examples. What about the laser video? What about all the other points?

If one flat earther is an idiot and wrong that doesn't make it wrong. Otherwise no one would believe round earth.
