What's with the resurgence of people arguing that the earth is flat?
@guerrillarain they can uphold their whack beliefs because smart people make the world work for them
@guerrillarain my guess is the global rise in antisemitism, because flat earthers believe science is a Jewish conspiracy, and antisemitic conspiracy theories are gaining followers
@metapianycist @guerrillarain ah yeah, idk if it's 100% this but I'd be surprised if it wasn't at least part of it
@guerrillarain I have a specific idea that it's a counterreaction to the cult of space that you get from shallow science popularizers like Neil Tyson
@guerrillarain it's the simplest possible distillation of "question authority". Which is pretty popular rn.
@guerrillarain They don't want to face the consequences of their actions. Instead of talking about the very real issues going on they are talking bullshit.
