Imagine believing the world is flat in 2018
Almost like 300+ years of science and astronomy went to the gutter.

Have you checked the wiki for the Flat Earth Society? It is all backed by science and logic.

Liberals have been saying we need to believe statements with no evidence forever. Of course, idiots will take that literally, and apply it to all things.

A lot more than 300. People haven't believed the earth is flat for thousands of years.

The real thing people had wrong was imagining the earth was the center of the universe, with the sun and stars revolving around it.

"Even if you believe in that, don't come out and say that stuff. That's for intimate conversations because perception and how you're received, it changes. I'm actually a smart-ass individual," he said.
"This is not even a conspiracy theory," Irving told Jefferson and Frye while recording the podcast on an airplane. "The Earth is flat. The Earth is flat. ... It's right in front of our faces. I'm telling you, it's right in front of our faces. They lie to us."

I just share Flat Earth Society links with people when I want to enlighten them to the truth of how our world works. One of the biggest eye openers is that there is no gravity in the sense that most of us learned in school. "Lift" keeps us accelerating upwards always.

(I'm also worried that I messed up by sharing this with my manager. He hasn't bought into the concept, and I think it may have lessened his respect for me.)

No its just the american education system has failed, and youtube channels get away with claiming things as fact can go unchallenged by deleting comments and only having one viewpoint.

The explosion in smartphones and general access to the Internet. And this stuff goes hand in hand with with conspiracies like QAnon where 90% of the belief process comes from simply refusing to believe what everyone around you is saying out of some misguided desire to be woke.
