They think the sun works like a spot light. I’m not kidding. It’s the dumbest shit
In their own gif they need to make the light the sun puts out oblong which makes no fucking sense and there’s no explanation as to why you can’t always see the moon.
It’s so stupid it’s embarrassing to even debunk them.
The Earth is constantly accelerating up at a rate of 32 feet per second squared (or 9.8 meters per second squared). This constant acceleration causes what you think of as gravity.
HOOO BOY,
that is so stupid, Hexbear might actually try to convince itself that it is true.
I almost left Lemmy because of the crap I always had in my feed.
Then I realized all the bottom of the barrel content and takes were all from the hexbear instance. I started blocking any community from that server. It’s like a whole new world
We at sh.ijust.works can proudly claim that we out-hexbeared the hexbears. They defederated from us before we did from them.
Not just that. In order for the sun to be visible 24/7 from Antarctica during its summer, the light from the sun would have to morph from a circle into a right going around the whole earth. I have no idea what could cause that.
Why did we ever put lead in gasoline? Now I have to live in this reality.
But why lead? The creator even knew it was toxic and still allowed it to be used.
So the world is flat so we can’t fall off, walls of ice keep the water from falling off its edges. Okidoki.
But the sun, moon, stars and planets don’t fall out of the sky? They are kept up there magically?
It’s great to read, as is most fantasy.
I’m trying to figure out how they think the sun can ever pass below the horizon in that model and it seems like their explanation is… magnets???
Fucking magnets, how do they work?
Idk.
They’re magic, they can do anything.
shouldn’t have clicked that link on my normal browser. now my “personal” ads are going to flood me with far right conspiracy bs, adult diapers, “oWnEd tHe LiBs” content, lifted trucks for sale, truck nuts, “silver nitrate”, and trump hat bs.
Hell yeah, siphon that money out of them
Every time you see one of those ads is one time that someone else won’t see it
Have they explained why pictures of the moon taken from Sydney Australia are upsidedown from pictures of the moon taken in NYC?
Wouldn’t you sort of expect that in a spotlight-style moon?
I say sort of, because what you’d actually expect, at least if I’m picturing it correctly, is that the moon would be rotated by about 130°. To be fully upside down you’d want to be off the coast of South America. And even then it’d be a rotation of 180°, which is not the same as a reflection.

It would be trivially easy to disprove it if it were worth the money to load them onto a plane and circumnavigate the globe in multiple directions, showing that there is no “wall of ice” and you always end up back where you started eventually. But it’s not, so they can continue to be idiots.
One of them spent $20k on a fancy gyroscope which proves the rotation of the earth and they ignore the shit out of stuff like that.
Visible curvature? Fish eye lens or “refraction”. Images from space? CGI.
At one point a flat earther launched himself into “space” with his homebuilt rocket to prove there was no curve, sadly it failed and the guy lost his life in the process.
How do they think eclipses work? I couldn’t see any mention of that on the page.
But wouldn’t that mean for the weeks approaching an eclipse you’d not have a moon at night because it was so close to the sun that it was up during the day?
