i don't understand the sudden influx of "I know you've been studying it your entire life, but I don't trust your literal expert opinion because all science is controlled by the left!"
like what sort of logic is that?

Confirmation Bias to the extreme...
I dread the day I actually meet people like this since while it should be fucking obvious that the idea that a flat earth sounds reasonable requires you to miss half your brain, I'm not actually well versed enough to make a completely factual and soundproof argument as to why they're fucking wrong.

There's a lot of arguments to make, but I think there's a fundamental problem in that they won't understand perspective. They'll say that ships sinking down below the horizon is just because of perspective, or that the sun setting is due to perspective, and there's no real arguing with that because it's simply nonsense.
This video is a good visualization of how a flat Earth would look like:

The fucking comments;
[quote]I already played the scientism game and did several years in indoctrination centers. I dont need a refresher course in what is supposedly fact when it comes to science. I do know how to conduct testing on my own and how to calculate using spherical trigonometry so no need to try and school me. I also know how all your science gods are freemasons or occultists so that disqualifies all their 'theories' and speculation. Not to mention the NAZI's forming NASA and employing mainly freemasons for their acting productions. Test the moonlight as opposed to sunlight in and out of shade to see if the moon is actually reflecting sunlight. Test the horizon properties on a curved surface as opposed to a flat surface. Test whether your so called space ships can create thrust in the so called vacuum. Test whether vacuums and non-vacuums can exist side by side with no barrier. Read RAS accounts of things happening in the heavens and see if it coincides with your indoctrination.•[/quote]

David Mitchel once said something along the lines of: If we don't believe people that can do what we can't do, we'd be in a lot of trouble as a species
This is why NASA keeps secrets from the public, because of people like that.
Flat earthers are among the stupidest people on earth.
The NASA employee actually posted in the comments
[quote] By now most of my family, friends/ coworkers have seen this video....along with about 380,000 others. I'm shocked at how viral this has gone. Too bad I won't get any royalties off this. But, I wanted to take a moment to share what led up to this ambush. I walked into a Starbucks in Palmdale on my way to reporting for a SOFIA night flight. As I walked in, this young man saw me in my uniform and asked me if I was really with NASA. "Cool, hey dude, can I get a pick with you?" Sure, why not? We snapped a selfie and I thanked him for the support and I handed him a NASA 'Meatball' sticker. Then he said, "you know that NASA in Hebrew means secret." I said, cool, I didn't know that. Then he asked me why NASA keeps secrets. I told him NASA is a public domain and we don't keep secrets. We will keep stuff off the net for a while to give the Primary Investigator, i.e., scientist time to publish before we release but eventually all our work is on the net. "No man, the Earth is flat and NASA is keeping it secret from everyone." As you can imagine I laughed out loud. I told him no, the Earth isn't flat. Obviously he wasn't having any of that. "I have a Facebook page of Flat Earth and I have 30,000 members. I thought, big deal. Then he switched gears and asked how it is that astronauts can drown in space. I told him with enough moisture forming in front of your nose and mouth, it won't move and you could easily drown. Even enough saliva could possibly cause a drowning. Out comes his cell phone and he said,"Oh, come on!!! Dude say that again on video!!!" At this point I was done talking to him. He ran off to his table of fellow flat-earthers, talked about how nice I was at first and now I was ignoring him. He then came up behind me to "ask" me some more questions and this is where the video picks up. I need to say, Kudos to the manager who not only tosses this clown out the door but also took care of me with a free mocha. Well done. Now you know the rest of the story. Good day!!!•[/quote]
