As I said, I didn't say the earth is flat. I said this term would be a good way to imprint on the mind the idea that flat earth is ridiculous.

Your conception of flat earth is also a strawman that no one believes in.

You weren't clear either.

Now you are clear.

The many variables and concepts I've listed above have been used by many Flat-Earthers, and perhaps inauthentically by many trolls. I'm certainly no expert in it, but like many conspiracies, ideas, and faiths, I've tried to give it a fair shake to see what comes of it. My assessment: retarded bunk.

For some reason, they have set up false flat earth theories and even made a flat earth society and even made flat earth conferences as a front, while they censor any actual flat earthers. They also promote debunks of flat earth during searches.

These things do not prove flat earth to be true but I find it interesting, because they used the same methods to censor the alt right and race realism originally, a concept I know is true because I studied it for years trying to debunk it.

Flat earth seems to be false, at least to me, but I do not find it as "retarded bunk". It is a falsifiable hypothesis just like any scientific hypothesis.

The flat earth concepts you've listed are however retarded bunk, I'll agree with you on that :)
