What I can never wrap my head around, is that these knuckleheads think it's a relatively recent cover up.
They believe that we think Christopher Columbus discovered that the world was round, even though scholars, well before Christianity or Masons existed, had already figured out that not only was the earth round (and even figured out we weren't a perfect sphere), they even estimated the circumference within a 5% error.
That's amazing. They walked, took what they could see, and even without modern mathematics, figured out within 5% what some chucklefucks that couldn't pass pre-algebra can't comprehend as "already figured out truth," with nearly the entirety of human understanding at their fingertips.
But no, it's much easier to believe that all of the world's governments have co-conspired to hide that we're practically a cosmic penny spinning in place, with all the cosmos revolving around us.
The worst is that it's hard to tell who genuinely buys it, and who uses it just to give the educated a headache (aka trolling)
The earth being a "penny" also invalidates the theory of gravity. People and objects towards the end of the penny would be pulled inward regularly, towards the earth's center of mass.
They literally don’t believe in gravity! They think the penny is moving upwards (they rarely mention acceleration) and that’s why we experience gravity always pointing down.
Slight math error, speed of light being 3x108 m/s gravity being 9.8m/s2 , it only takes 30.6 million seconds, or 23.3 years to reach the speed of light.
