well sure

i disproved their only rebuttal

they just left you to disprove them

yeah

👍

Hello

Here's my argument
Earth's not flat cause we have proof of:
1- Gravity
2- Gravity being less at the Earth's equator because of it's spin
3- images of earth from space
4- countless ground experiments to prove it's not flat
the usual shebang I encounter is "we don't know gravity exists" "the experiments to prove that weight was less at the equator were faked" "the photos were doctored" "the experiments were fake"
then I'm assaulted with youtube conspiracy theory videos and images that are either fake or actually disprove them

if you attempt to refute my points without using the "fake" argument, I'll be impressed

Well I may not be able to refute your points

Then you concede?

Well we can still discuss a bit

First

I wasn't aware of the study showing gravity less at the equator

You weigh a teeny bit less at the equator than you do at the poles

Centripetal force

So flat earthers usually say gravity effects are explained by density

And that gravity is essentially an unproven theory

Which is wrong, as in a vacuum chamber a hammer will still fall

So can you explain to me how it is that gravity is strong enough to hold the oceans down but allows a fragile butterfly to fly?

Because a butterfly has most of its surface area dedicated to resisting gravity.

Its wings flap, thrusting air downwards, and as each action must have an equal and opposite reaction, it is propelled upwards.

This is possible as it's an insect, and thus weighs very little, meaning that gravity has less of an effect on it.

So for me the most compelling evidence of flat earth is the cases where an object or building or land mass is clearly visible from a distance such that it should be concealed behind the curve

Usually accomplished from a height.

France is visible from the top of the cliffs of Dover, but not on the beach below.

Just as an example

I've seen many examples

There's no image there.

Hmm

if u have images u can send them to me and i will post them for u

Images are usually non-productive.

i'm just saying ;-;

k.

Yeah still no image

Ah, I see. The redirect link.

It links to a presentation with no sources for its claims.

You can see a YouTube video where they seem to prove the issue with the Chicago skyline

But if indeed the buildings are visible that should be well below the curve

It raises a question

Where were they looking from?
