North Korea protects the edge

I would definitely watch
Mrblump
Remember when we ignored stupid people instead of giving them platforms to spread their ignorance.
WeaponizedJerk
Yeah, more like "bunch of shit I just stole from the internet". I've seen that joke floating around already.
ijoinedtoolate
This is what they have been trying to get all along. Free travel and trips to space
JMaxGarage
That’s a series that would never end as they keep going round and round
UnluckyLunkhead
Suggested mode of transport: A short bus.
LosPer
It would just go 'round and 'round...
RElGNMAN
I would pay to see this.
DinoInBoots
This really feels like an age of inane privilege and ignorance. It's kinda painful to see.

...10/10 would watch. Title of the show "No shit"

Let them find it so they can fall off it.

Good luck with that.

Why don't people just post their shit and stop attributing it to some kids?

It's called The Gods Must Be Crazy and it's amazing

Heard of it. Why have I only heard of it and not actually watched it?
mrbadxampl
a reality show worth watching? they'd never do that...

How is that worth watching? Flat earth people spouting bullshit for a half hour, flying in a plane and then refusing to believe anything

That might be the only.reality show I'd watch. Holy shit that's hilarious!

I actually know that guy, and I'd say it probably did happen. Granted, the kid got the idea from somewhere else, but Eddie didn't know that.
MyFrontPorchInMississippi
I don't believe you
MostIndeedlySo
Why the hell do they have to pretend that the kids come up with these ideas? Is it to shield themselves if the joke doesn't land?
MyFrontPorchInMississippi
Seriously
Astha
My number one question for flat earthtards is why would every government in the entire world spend billons making sure (1/2)
Astha
(2/2) the secret that the earth is flat? Why would it have to be a secret? And why the other planets are spheres but not earth?
[deleted]
[deleted]
cousteau
OK first, why would Earth have to be a planet? "Planets" were, by definition, "celestial bodies that move weird", and "Earth doesn't move"
cousteau
(This reasoning made sense before it was found out that Earth was in fact just one more planet, round, rotating, and orbiting the Sun)
MadMupp
Wouldnt be cheaper and faster to have a scientist travel with the head people of the flat Earth society, conducting all the experiments
FistingWithJalapenoDoritoFingers
Flat earthers don't trust scientists, they think they're all paid off by nasa to keep their mouths shut and destroy any evidence
MadMupp
To show the Earth isnt flat? And after theyre struggling for excuses take them up in one of those US spy planes & show them the curve?
BlankMage
The problem then becomes "of course it's curved, it's a disc".
cousteau
Step 1: put all flat earthers on board of a spaceship. Step 2: make spaceship take off, showing round Earth. Step 3: don't get them back.
cyndarrus
ah i was reading that praying youd mention step 3 lol
krylani
Wouldn't work. "Holograms" and "fisheye windows" and crap like that.
cousteau
That's what step 3 is for.
RedClaws23
The edge, according to the official stance of the Flat Earth Society, is a 100mile tall ice wall called Antarctica. This show would serve
RedClaws23
only as a strawman against people even dumber than the Flat Earth Society
SudoCatEtcIssue
I still don't believe that flat-earthers are serious. Pretty sure one day they'll tweet "we were faking it to see how you react LOL"
Tivers
I honestly believe that’s how religion started. Some dude called Jesus and his mates were drunk and he was like “YOOOO IM WALKING ON WATER”
ThenIDefyYouStars
They'd do that once they were embarassingly proven wrong.. as a way to pretend they knew the truth all along.
Gosuamakenatek
Nah, I'm pretty sure they'd just make up more "facts" off the top of their heads to explain everything.

They aren't a single entity. Some are true believers, while others are obviously trolling.

It's not a great place to find world news, but if an organised group of FE'rs are gonna say they were trolling, Twitter would be ideal.

No sensationalism or bias from the news. You can see for yourself the opinions on Twitter. You don't HAVE to get your info second hand.
stippet
One episode. 2 miles into Antarctica, stopped by the UN military. end of show.
calldrdaley
As funny as that would be, that would only make them more paranoid. Just fly them over the South Pole and be done with it.
Felderburg
The "UN military" is made of troops from member countries, and they're not in Antarctica.
atrielienz
The UN has a military?
NotAHugeSpider
Nope. Even the UN stays away after the Miskatonic University professor William Dyer's expedition failed.

fearandloathebananas
Just to troll them?
mclewis13
He’s a flat earther. They believe that the edge is protected by the military and you will be stopped/shot if you get too close.
MarkOfTheCovenant
"Flat Earthers" "believe" "protected" "and"
kuba913
flat earthers* i jave no respect for them
Revelant
Doesn't mean he will get stopped. Unless you say hes looking to get stopped then hes not a flat earther.
mclewis13
They think the military stop people from seeing the truth (the edge) through military force. So yes they expect to be stopped by the gov’t.
Revelant
Sounds more like they want to be stopped.
BendOverAndIllShowYa
Stop talking about flat earthers. They’re not real people. Treat them like they have a disability. Don’t pander to them.
AngelGiuffriaCyborg
You think that's gonna work? Most of the people on earth are either Christian or Muslim, and they refuse to understand they're second-class
TheJudgeHasItBackwards
Anti-vaxxers too... They aren't rebellious, they're simply retarded. Give them a helmet and send them on their way.
BendOverAndIllShowYa
Exactly. That’s the danger in spreading their message because it causes damage to public psyche and discourse. Well said my man.
OlderTrackSaint
For some people it's just a bit of harmless idiocy. At best entertaining and at worst... Well idk
BendOverAndIllShowYa
See comment below about anti-vaxxers. It dangerous to give a platform to lunacy as though flat earthers have a legitimate argument.

As wrong as someone may be, dehumanizing them is a disturbingly popular strategy.
BendOverAndIllShowYa
I’m not dehumanizing. Im saying there is no basis for their belief and as such they have a disease/disorder and we should treat them as such
FatBastardVegetarian
I think we should call them "Curmudgeons". They don't believe the earth is flat. They're just argumentative misanthropes.

I thought patrol boats, but thats a fuck ton of people, so many that it wouldnt be a conspiracy after a while.
Irreal
But you assume that the boats are manned
SkiMaskThePlumpGod
isn’t there a mathematical hypothesis that conspiracies like that are impossible due to the sheer number of people to keep their mouths shut
Thecogwheel
At 16 400 miles to encircle Antarctica by sea, if you had one patrol boat every two miles that's 8 200 patrol boats 1/2
Droobilicious
I may be wrong but I think they believe Antarctica to encircle the whole world which would make the circumfrence much bigger than we know it
Thecogwheel
At 21 people per ship that's 172 200 people on the ground that know about it but have no reason to keep it a secret. Just patrol BTW not
Thecogwheel
Counting any extra fire power needed or other needs a conspiracy like this needs - like buying out the every scientist
Corona688
Last I heard flat earthers still believed in RADAR, so make that every 50 miles.
calcifear
They think Antarctica is the edge, all the way around, with a giant "wall" of ice. Not that any oceans extend to the edge.
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
Where do they think the east/west split is? Through the Pacific Ocean or Atlantic? And do they know there are flights across both?
Irreal
There is no east west split. Earth is a disk centered around the northpole

You should watch some of their videos - It's bullshit, ofc but it's fun to see how they rationalize it.
