Flat earth is a mirror

If you think flat earthers are batshit, but you’re content to just let them have their weird geology in peace, you’re probably a middle of the road, life in the received wisdom lane type of person. That’s cool. Situation normal.

If you think flat earthers are wrong but you’ve done at least some research into it, you’re probably fairly intelligent and naturally curious, if not quite skeptical enough about conventional wisdom. Not bad, but you have a tendency to be over-trusting of rationalisations and excuses as a way of dodging cognitive dissonance.

If you are a flat earther, you’ve come to trust your own judgement and reasoning over the enormous pressure society heaps on you. Well done. Let’s not get cocky though, that’s how we ended up being duped in the first place.

If you decide to make snarky comments about flat earthers on tumblr, it goes to show you are the type to tread on and insult others to score a few social points from other narcissists. Making fun of marginalised, powerless groups takes no bravery whatsoever.

I know my reading comprehension is piss poor but did you just call flat earthers a marginalized group?

Flat Earth is a rejection of scientific data at a base level. The very same logical reasoning that birth such movements as anti-vaccination. A desperate, pleading call for information to the contrary while simultaneously rejecting all evidence to the contrary, only without the percieved moral dilemma involving children.

Choosing to arbitrarily dismiss evidence and science that lead to radical advances in medicine, technology, and civil rights, at least in my opinion, is spitting in the face of all of those that sacrificed their time and effort in the name of collective human achievement and calling them liars for the sake of that very same ignorance.

So no, I don’t think that level of ignorance should be so casually ignored, especially when it’s growing at such a ridiculous rate.

>calls people who don’t believe in flat Earth narcissists

>made a post where only the flat earthers are considered the ones doing things right, giving them praise for literally not listening to anyone else but themselves

hm.

    No, just making fun of people who like to be intentionally ignorant and avoid science, evidence, and reason.
