?There is no hope for this one
I’ve watched about 10 hours of flat earth documentaries. Once I hit about 50 hours worth then I’ll come to a conclusion. Level (2021) comes out tomorrow. So far I’m leaning towards a flat earth.
The Greeks postulated that the earth was a sphere, and Copernicus had the theory that the spherical earth, along with the planets orbited around the sun, and it was Galileo who proved this theory with a telescope, and who was locked up in his house for half of his life by the ‘government’ of the day for telling the truth. It’s not a government conspiracy.
If anything flat earth is a government conspiracy. It’s easier to control people if you make them believe stupid shit
Galileo wasn't locked up for telling the truth (a truth that truthfully, he could not fully prove by himself). He was locked up for insulting his would-be benefactor - the new pope Urban VIII - in his seminal work. For that, he was only placed under house arrest with fairly loose terms.
I'm pretty sure spherical earth was common knowledge long before Copernicus. See: the experiment of Eratosthenes to calculate its circumference some 1800 years before.
You cant feel the spin because you move at the same speed as the earth does, just like when you are in a car. Your body travels at the speed the car does, this is why you move forwards when you brake.
This is basic physics
Ive done the research and debated people claiming to have "done the math". Ive debunked all of them
Come on guys. Think game theory. Its possible to entertain a line of thinking without believing it.
That's not game theory?
