This is the peak journalism that my local news station produces on the regular

why so angry? i would love to talk to a flat earther

Flat Earth believers enrage me

why?

It's ignorance to a whole other level

They don't listen to reason

thats how i feel around people who believe in government

you just have to get used to it, then it gets really funny

But this is different. This is something that can't be subjective

The Earth cannot be flat. Period

Mathematically

Numbers don't lie

and you dont see any humor in this at all?

It stops being funny after a while

After that, it just gets insulting

i think it's almost as funny as feminism

I'm passionate about astronomy, so when people ignore the hard work that has gone into proving these things, it upsets me

I guess you could say it triggers me

It is literally the only thing that does

someone wants to believe the earth is flat? Fine.
But i'm not gonna have any conversations with them, or ever take them seriously about anything

it's funny and incredibly frusstrating

it's not being wasted, the knowledge is being put to use

imagine if we had to vote on the flatness of the earth

there are enough people to go around that we dont need everyone to be on board

Yes, but people who refuse to believe it make me angry because they are willingly ignoring centuries of research

like people are willing to ignore millions of dead people in communist countries?

Exactly

that can be funny too if you master the art of dark humor

which you basically need as a coping mechanism anyway

I have very dark humor

I'm at a point in my life where i've decided i have no time for assholes or for people that deny what they can literally see with their eyes, conspiracy theories, or people who refuse to even consider what you're saying .

But this is just one of those things you know

you have no obligation to convince anyone of the truth

like i never used to block people. I've blocked at least 4 or 5 people in this discord, and quit like 3 discords

Ignorance of Truth makes me wish that medicine didn't allow stupid people to survive being stupid

They actually said that the new pictures from the Mars Rover were just close up shots of a brown bath bomb

AND THEY WEREN'T JOKING

ive spent a couple of years talking to a quite sjw dude, and my hate has transformed into acceptance and then curiosity
after we gave up on each other the conversations has gotten far more respectful and chill

if you accept people will be stuck in their ways, you can just enjoy banter without being so dramatic

They're disrespectful to people who don't agree though
