The pictures that Trump shared with the president of South Africa are from a flat earther !!🤣🤣🤣

“The account, discovered by MeidasTouch's review of high-resolution photos from the event, is run by a man named Paul Hattingh of South Africa, who spreads white nationalist narratives, hateful imagery, and promotes theological interpretations of the Bible to justify a cosmology that rejects a spinning globe Earth.”

Meidas+ · Exclusive: Trump Shared Racist, Flat-Earth Facebook Account With South African PresidentBy MeidasTouch Network

In a shocking twist worthy of a flat-earth convention, RFK Jr. has bravely decided that the cornerstone of modern health science – germ theory – is merely a figment of our collective imagination. 🦠🚫 Clearly, he's got a PhD in #Ignorance, specializing in "Things Scientists Figured Out Centuries Ago." 🧐🎓

Ars Technica · RFK Jr. rejects cornerstone of health science: Germ theoryBy Beth Mole

Earth’s moon passes again through our shadow; a moment to consider Aristotle’s logic deduced conclusion of earth’s spherical nature by its curvature.

2300 years ago, in 350 BC.

It’s good to remember, as Commander Trump is about to sail us off the edge of his #flatearth: odds are astronomical that we won’t have overlapping #climatechange revved disasters.

After destroying our means to deal with them.

Likely effect, even in his 2D space, is that he will sail onto the flip side.

At least NASA hasn't gone completely stupid when it comes to conspiratorial subjects like a "Flat Earth."

I'm not convinced that NASA won't accept a flat earth science stance in the coming months. Why? Because I am aware of what the #Trump administration has been doing to science and medicine in just the last 50 days.

If you are a flatearther, you can add another company to the list of people who "you stupidly think" are either in on the conspiracy that the earth is flat, and we that we didn't land on the moon.

Stop with the Anti-Science and stop with the conspiracy theories that have been debunked. You make the entire human race look stupid.

One thing I think about is how flat-earth types could convince themselves, without having to trust anyone, their model of the earth is wrong. I don't think the earth is flat, but it is an interesting problem in #epistemology.

A model needs to explain observations if it is to be believed.

Lately, I've been thinking about day length as seasons change, and how cycle is opposite for southern hemisphere. Can FE explain that? I don't see how. Spheroid can.
