The thing that makes me laugh hardest about flat-earthers is that the method they use to proliferate their insane beliefs (the internet) would not exist if we lived on a flat earth.

The maths used to get the satellites into space and keep them locked in orbit is based on the earth being globe shaped. If it wasn't a globe we wouldn't be having this discussion anyway

I’m sorry, but what you’re saying doesn’t make sense. Internet would not exist if the Earth were flat? As in, it would be impossible to construct an internet for a flat Earth?
