How do the mods "know" Brent? There's a 3 bitcoin reward for one single proof of the globe waiting to be claimed. Just one proof. There should literally be dozens, if not hundreds, if not thousands of proofs.
I myself looked for that one proof for over 3 years to shut down a buddy of mine that kept nagging me about FE. Much to my surprise, I was never able to find one.
If you've got the proof but are unwilling to try and collect the 3 bitcoin (~$90K), share it with me and I'll submit it and split the prize with you.
Whadaya say?
What do flat earthers define as "flat", anyway? Perhaps they need better marketing.
As any civilian boater or ship navigator knows, looking out towards the horizon of an open, calm sea does not lend itself to the FE's use of commonly understood adjectives. They need to do better from the get go.
Well I tend to agree with your sentiment. And to wit, most legit "flat earthers" don't think the realm we live in is "flat". We just know that there's no evidence of the curvature lie anywhere we look.
But I don't understand your example? Looking out over the sea shows nothing but "flatness". You are literally at "sea LEVEL", because everything is indeed LEVEL, as water always finds its LEVEL.
So I'm not sure what you're driving at with this example?
What SHOULD BE available if we lived on a globe are pictures and videos of ginormous water BULGES due to the so-called moon's "gravity" (also fake and no proof). Based on all the establishment measurements they give us, we should have water bulges as high as 13 miles in certain parts of the ocean due to the moon's alleged gravitation pull at its peak. But we've never seen a picture or video of any water bulge of even 100 feet, let alone miles.
Everywhere you look, water always finds its level - even amidst the fictional tale of the alleged massive moon gravitation pull. Quite a head-scratcher, eh?
We've been observing the water bulges forever. They're called tides. Dummy.
Now ad-hominen attacks? What a sad state of affairs.
Where does all the water go at low tide... dummy? Shouldn't there be a mountain of water out in the ocean that has incorporated all that excess water?
This is what the great globe god Neil DeGrass Tyson tell his blindly trusting followers. Or weren't you aware of this defining feature of your globe as presented by your globe gods?
You blindly call me a dummy when you don't even know the idiotic lies your side tells. Bravo good sir, bravo.
Here's your globe god spreading his great wisdom -> https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dreHvsvXR9c
I'll just head back to dummyville now....
I think Morpheus has a point .... somewhat.
In the Med there is hardly eb and flood as tides. Maybe a couple of inches. From west to east we are talking 3000 miles or so. The interesting part is: it differs from place to place. In some places it can reach a difference of 1 meter or 3 feet.
The same goes for other places around the world having 3 or 4 tides a day instead of 2.
So, what we learned at school, that the moon is responsible for the tides (think spring-tide = storm + tide) may be somewhat questionable. The model generally works so no one thinks about it.
For instance, does it matter if a coast line is under a certain angle with the moon making the tide there more or less?
Why does the North Sea have a tide but the East-Sea, or the Baltic sea does not? What's the difference? Does it make a difference if the water is salty or sweet? How much water column do you need to get tidal effects? How about the Caspian Sea?
I dunno the answer to these questions. I looked for them somewhat, and learned quite a lot. But the questions are still valid.
Flat Earth is the ultimate in goal post moving: every time you show proof or refute their argument they move the goal posts again.
Can you provide an example or is this your way of avoiding looking into it for yourself?

1- You can see the curve from an airplane. 2- If it was flat you could see Everest from anywhere with a good enough telescope. I'll take my payment in USD.
LOL, hilarious. You get an F for effort!
The plane windows are curved. Hard to believe it's this easy to fool people. Go check out the globe king Neil The-Grass-Fed-Bison talk about Felix Baumgartner's famous Red Bull jump from like 128,000 feet (24 miles) which is basically 4x higher than commercial planes ever fly. Mr Bison had to do damage control on this one and let everyone know that everyting looks 100% FLAT even from that height, despite Baumgartner's fish-eye lens GoPro camera which made everything look curved, just like your airplane window. Turns out the balloon had a camera mounted to it as well that wasn't a GoPro fish-eye lens that captured all the action with a nice FLAT & LEVEL horizon with zero curvature to be found.
There's way too much distortion in the atmosphere for that. It's like looking through 1000 windows. You can see through 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13. 14.15.16.17 stacked windows but things get hazier and hazier the more you add. There are scratches, imperfections, clouding, etc. in the glass as well. Just like the atmosphere is full of gases, moisture, humidity, smoke, fog, rain, snow, etc. This is why you can't "see forever" and never will be able to no matter the technology.
1- Funny how you can see it from a Cessna with the doors taken off then. You know, as in, no windows. That's a bullshit excuse anyways because it would distort at all times and look like playing a video game at 120FOV even on the ground.
2- No, the reason you can't see forever is because the Earth is curved.
That guy is an idiot. Why isn’t the horizon curved when you are on the ground, why is it magically only refracting in the air? Morons
You should let Neil DeGrass Tyson he's wrong then...
There are lots of proofs, but if you offer a reward, it doesn't mean anything if you dismiss all evidence presented as fake.
You can't deny science, and as luck would have it, there's zero science backing up the globe. What a coincidence!
You can watch ships drop below the horizon, you can’t see the North Star in the southern hemisphere, water spirals counter clockwise in the north, clockwise in the south. It flows straight down on the equator, great circle paths fall southerly in the southern hemisphere- give me my 3 bitcoins.
There's a limit to the angular resolution of the lens of your eye. Get yourself a Nikon P900 camera with telescopic lens and you can zoom right back in to those ships you can no longer see with your naked eye. And to wit, there's a limit to the angular resolution of the lens of the camera too.
All observational claims are subject to the "law of perspective" which is simple and obvious to understand. You can't see everything, everywhere forever which is what this weak claim suggests. Instead, you can see what is near you but not what is far from you. Look it up if you don't understand.
No it doesn't. The "Coriolis effect" is a fallacy, a wives tale, 100% debunked. No such phenomenon occurs. The water spiral depends EXCLUSIVELY on the shape and design of the drain holding the water, and/or the momentum given to the water when the drain is opened up.
This sentence doesn't even make sense.
Sorry, you lose, as all GLOBALISTS lose. Once again, zero science, all you've provided are nothing but fully debunked arguments.
Where's the SCIENCE? Zero scientific proofs of the globe? How can that be? Things that make you go hmmmmmmm?
