So about 8 years ago I’d never heard of such a thing as flat earth and I’m out with a friend getting twisted up and he says he has a gaff we can go to and he can sell a bit of coke and we can get sniffed up there too.
We get to this shitty flat (not judging I’ve lived in shitty pads and after all we are getting fucked up so can’t judge) and there I meet quite possibly the most intellectually challenged 3 people I’ve ever met (again I’m not genius but I do like to think I have critical thought).
This one girl starts chatting to me about flat earth, not in a way just to be different, but genuinely believed it. Imagine my face when I’m like this can’t be happening, and start to question why it is flat which they can’t really articulate and I just wanted the world to end to get me out of this conversation.
Point being stupid people exist and will believe this shit. Even if the most prominent people are doing it for a grift.
Nope - I’ve known true believers - while contrarianism is a big motivator, the beliefs are sincere… and from that level of conspiracism, it’s a short walk to Nazism.
my two cents are, for what it’s worth,
that no-one really believes in a flat earth.
they just revel in creating dissension
and crave all the ensuing attention,
so let’s let it remain in that realm of mirth.
Nah.
