Will they finally accept that the Earth is round, or will they say that it’s fake and the windows on the space stations are monitors?

They know the earth is round. It is not like the moon landing that was obviously faked.
For real. The moon never landed anywhere.
Well, according to the Giant-impact hypothesis, a planet crashed into Earth then the debris became the moon we know now, so you could say the moon did land somewhere.
“These aren’t windows, they’re just sophisticated high resolution 3D monitors. NASA has had this tech for decades, they’ve just never let the secret out. You’re not seeing the Earth, you’re seeing a video. Why can’t we go see it with our own eyes outside? Exactly. Seems very convenient we’re being asked to wear suits with image projection helmets.”
You will never win with people this fucking stupid.
They could try the airlock
Avenue 5 did it:
What I don’t understand is let’s say it is flat. Why would they go to such lengths to lie that it’s round? For what purpose.
and also the flip side: who the fuck cares if it’s flat and the government is lying about it?
This question debunks 99% of conspiracy theories, but they’ll just give some non-answer like “power” or “control.”
Don’t get me wrong. I do love a good conspiracy, but it needs to have plausible motivation and a mountain of evidence
Hell, I’ll even accept the ones without a mountain of evidence against them as possible.
The shape of the Earth was determined by evidence noticed in the ancient Greek time, if not sooner. That includes a rough calculation of the diameter of the planet.
I think they have this paranoia that the entire humanity turned against their religious belief. Like what benefit is there to changing the world’s shape for nasa, or anyone?
Literally every flat earther is outright retarded.
Oh my god they’ve blown the earth!
They combust.
Even if you could convince a flat Earther to go to space, I suspect the vast majority would not be swayed.
As you suggest, they’d instead likely say that it’s all fake trickery. Even if you gave them a space-suit, put the helmet together right in front of them showing no electronics of any kind, and let them walk outside, they’d still say it was all fake trickery.
They would never believe their own eyes, because they’ve already made up their minds. An allusion to the Earth being round is an illusion.
You don’t even need to go to space to prove the Earth is round. As @Pons_Aelius already said elsewhere in this thread, there was even a show made and funded by Flat Earther’s to try loads of different tests, and they ended up rejecting all of them because they accidentally demonstrated that the Earth had to be round.
Their mind is already made, and they’ll only accept results that conform to that belief. Anything else is either fake, trickery, or flawed.
Just shove them out of the airlock without a suit, then.
Wait wait!!! “Fake trickery”??!?? You mean… it’s real but it looks fake but it’s real?
i remember some flat earther attempted building a rocket and was successful, except it had no way to land and yeah…
My guess is they would not go in the first place.
or will they say that it’s fake and the windows on the space stations are monitors?
But if they did, this would be my guess. They have not used logic or accepted any proof that they are wrong so I doubt they would in space.
Some flat earth guys designed a great experiment to prove whether the earth is flat or round. The only problem was they when their own results showed it was round…
They rejected the results they had come up with as it did not fit their belief.
The problem, fundamentally, is that flat earthers don’t become flat earth advocates because they have a sane skepticism that what the vast majority of humanity agrees is obvious might be wrong, but because in the thin margin between coming across a “smart” flat earth argument and understanding why it’s flawed, they feel special that they “know” they’re above the vast majority of humanity.
Being able to design and run an experiment on whether the Earth is flat or not is legitimately cool, and might as well be seen as a source of self-worth, but because accepting the results means suffering the humiliation of accepting how stupidly over confident they’ve been in the first place, they can’t take the small L in order to score the big W.
Everyone knows the real shape of the Earth is a cube
Timecube!
Probably the same people that won’t wear a space suit because they don’t believe in the widely accepted science that space suits keep you alive.
Flat earthers: You don’t need swimsuits to stay alive while swimming, therefore you don’t space suits to stay alive in space.
Meanwhile builders, deepsea divers, astronauts, welders, race car drivers, crossing guards, sports players: “but our PPE keeps us safe”.
They will say they’ve been abducted by aliens of course!
My bet is they know its round and want to be part of something and this is the something they chose.
Didn’t the COVID pandemic basically clear this question up?
I haven’t heard this, how did the pandemic inform one way or another on flat earthers?
I’m assuming they meant we could watch in real time as people made their own version of the truth this time because they wanted so hard to believe they didn’t have to get a needle.
It was largely the same style of mental Olympics as flat-earthers.
No flat earther has ever gone to space, but they claim that video from space only makes it look like the earth is round due to fish-eye lenses.
They would believe you can do both.
They’ll crash into the firmament at high speed, and die. God will probably smite their corpse for doubting Him.
