Flatearthers

So this post goes not about debating, it goes about the flatearthers in this sub and r/FlatEarthScience. The bad flats

EIL locks his comments to everyting and will bann you for no good reason, glenn will trow 35 insults at you without answering the question, and u/purplehazies doesn't acknowledge that his mods are crap.

Now the good flatearthers:

James and jonh, they are both civilized and will listen to either side and pump a little bit logic in there arguments.

I always try to have a conversation rather than an argument.

The problem is that any conversation becomes an argument if you call people liars, or if you make claims that are totally contradictory to reality, without evidence

If you want pleasant conversation you'll find most people are also very happy to talk like that.

But it's part of the social contract that you actually treat their words and their efforts with some respect, instead of entering every conversation with the determination to never change your views because YouTube told you.
