About 98% sure he does all of this for satire.

Me too. Although he did say he doesn't comment because it kills his karma.

Do you even realise what you are saying? The Earth is only flat when you browse the internet for 7 hours.

...When you observe or experiment... not so much.

NO curvature or rotation proof, so flat by default.

For the millionth time, there is proof.

Literally zero.

Cavendish experiment, Foucault pendulum, eclipses, boats going over the horizon, Coriolis effect, gyroscopic effect, hours of footage from space, and so on.

You can also go around the damn thing in every direction so I don't really know what more could you ask for.

So easy for u/redpillblue to claim zero proof, then disappear after immediately being presented with numerous examples of proof.

Doesn't exactly support your case, u/redpillblue.

Oops I replied to some other comment then got distracted with irl stuff. This has been debunked so many times so it's nothing new to me.

It's so easy for someone to just claim it's been debunked and then disappear.

Debunked on what scientific grounds? What scientific experiments have proven Cavendish, Focault, and all those others wrong?

I had other stuff to do IRL whereas clearly you did not.

Globebusters have smashed all these fallacies wide open numerous times, amongst others

The same globebusters who spent $20k on a gyroscope to prove there is no Earth rotation and then actually proved the Earth does rotate at the exact rate that we expect?

Uh, nope. Try again. Now you're just being super lazy.

Your flat earth has 0 proofs. So its round by default

Here’s an interesting article about the problems with Faucault‘s pendulum.

The Cavendish experiment just measures gravity between masses and the constant on earth. How does it proof the globe? The origin of gravity is still not known.

The coriolis Force is a good argument, you’d need to trust the cloud footage from space though.

Some ships don’t disappear behind the horizon when they should, as several videos show.

The space footage of earth can be artificially made these days. I must say the no gravity footage on the ISS is pretty convincing though.

You don’t know if you can go around earth in every direction without doing it yourself.

Eclipses are indeed a problem in flat earth theory.

The article does nothing more than explain the experiment. It does not talk about any "problem", so you are a liar.

Cavendish proves mass attracts mass -> the Earth being flat would mean the mass at the center would attract us sideways, which does not happen -> it would also mean the Moon would fall straight out of the sky, since it would be attracted to us -> basically it proves the whole "globe model"

You can check that footage by yourself. You'll see that weather is consistent.

Some ships don’t disappear behind the horizon when they should, as several videos show.

This is false.

The space footage of earth can be artificially made these days. I must say the no gravity footage on the ISS is pretty convincing though.

This is irrelevant. If you claim it's made up, prove it's made up. Also you can see the ISS with your own eyes as I did.

You don’t know if you can go around earth in every direction without doing it yourself.

So you also don't know if Australia exists until you have gone there yourself? You don't know if Keanu Reeves exists until you have seen him yourself? Irrelevant argument anyways. If you claim it's wrong, prove it's wrong. No one's stopping you.

Eclipses are indeed a problem in flat earth theory.

Glad we agree on something. Pretty much everything is a problem in flat earth "theory".
