Patchelicious Posted March 23, 2019 Share Just watched Behind the curve on Netflix. Do it.It nicely reveals the true motives behind the societies.Best part is when they conduct that gyroscope experiment to prove the earth was flat but end up proving themselves wrong.

Patchelicious Posted March 28, 2019 Share 8AA21175-BB26-4E61-9C28-56E92F6C9413.jpegThis is actually not a million miles from the logic they display on Behind the Curve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popcorn_skollie Posted March 28, 2019 Share I actually know a flat earther. Well, friend of a friend really. At first I thought he was just trolling on social media. But this guy is committed and legit. Behind the Curve dives into the social aspect of this phenomena and its something I've always wondered about. To discover, test and rationalist is a very big part of what drives us as a species. But we also have very real social needs. And these two things don't always reconcile. It could just boil down to choosing between two things.To be right, or to be happy. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and Patchelicious 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s often about social needs and a sense of belonging. It’s a strange human trait. popcorn_skollie, Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and Spoke101 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sad as in lame or whatever. Sad as in how they were shunned. Then again I suppose thats what we are doing in a sence with all these jokes.

Quite insightful.Their channel explains things much the same way the Oversimplified channel crams history lessons into easy to watch, illustrative, 5-10 minute videos. While you're at it watch Joe Rogan's podcast with Brian Cox. I suggest the 5 minute snippets or highlights from the podcast via his JRE channel.

I enjoy Brian’s way of explaining things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinarello1 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Flat Earthers plan 'big, bold' cruise to ‘edge of the world’https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/news/flat-earthers-plan-cruise-to-the--edge-of-the-world-/ Hope their brakes work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchelicious Posted March 28, 2019 Share Brian Cox is the best science communicator IMO. Much prefer him to NDT.Agreed. NDT did thrust science into the lives of many, which had to be acknowledged. But he is a little arrogant about it, BC is humble and he seems truly in awe of it. This is contagious and you have to appreciate his message.
