    someone who believes in a flat earth is also more likely to believe in the geocentric order of planets rather than the heliocentric one.

      I highly doubt they know what either of those mean, actually

          heliocentricism → the Sun is the center of the universe and all revolves around it

          geocentrism → the Earth is the center of the universe and all revolves around it, including the sun

    Earth is the only flat planet AND the only one to have both liquid water and life. Checkmate, round-earth whackadoodles. /s

      I mean, you obviously can’t have oceans on a round planet. The water would just flow away into space.

    This actually explains why our planet is the only one with life. The aliens keep slipping off theirs!

      Pluto is where the conspiracy gets really crazy, which is why astronomers are trying to cover up it’s existence.

    Ha! You think flat earthers believe we aren’t the center of the universe?

    Imagine believing science enough to agree with scientists that Pluto isn’t a planet, but not enough to believe Earth is round.

    Nonononononono! You got it wrong! The “sun” is just a giant heat lamp the government has been running ever since the beginning of time! The heat lamp moves while we stay stationary! /s

    This is such a misconstrued scale meant to be derisive against flat earthers. The accurate representation is a circle with cloud shrouded ice damns along the edge of the planet.

    It’s still dumb but should be accurate to what they believe.

      And the sun should be a little ball above the Earth. Exactly how high and how big is not sure.

        You also shouldn’t ask how it manages to light only half of an otherwise flat earth I suppose.

        Best explanation I saw involved light curving. At which point you’re just working with a spherical earth in a weird coordinate system.

          Explanations for lunar and solar eclipses get silly too. Mercury and Venus passing in front of the sun is just ignored as it wouldn’t fit between the Earth and the sun.

    The other planets and moons are flat too, bro. They just face us all the time. It’s convenient like that.

    We can argue about this all day but we should probably find something better to do in the short time we have left before we crash into the sun according to this diagram
