Okay, okay, alright, somebody, someone somewhere…
You have to tell me, how the fuck do they make money from being intentionally stupid?
How the fuck?
There’s no way they’re doing this by accident.
There’s no way they’re actually this stupid.
There has to be an angle.
What the fuck is the angle?
How the fuck are they funding their lives by saying shit like this?
Garbage in, garbage out
Combination of targeted oil money bribery + whipping up tribalism, some explicitly sell their souls while others tie their self-worth to a lie
Having followers is a path to monetizing new lies against them in the future… best I’ve got.
Selling “secret knowledge” to stupid people has always been a profitable grift
Apparently twitter has a system where they’ll pay you for posts with a lot of attention, regardless of it’s quality. Pays less than minimum wage but some do it full time anyways.
The angle is having an ingroup. Build a community around absolutely anything and people will come, just so they can belong. Flat earth is just one of these. Flerfers are funny because it’s so absurd, but the same psychology is at play for e.g. the manosphere, local sports teams and anything else if you look hard enough.
And they pay the bills via advertising. Another win for capitalism. Yay.Engagement bait. Algorithm recommends them to more people. They get more money from ads.
I’m convinced none of these people actually believe this stuff and they just think they are being funny
The best way to find answers online is not to ask a question. Instead, it’s to make a statement that is wrong and wait for someone to correct you.
Thank god for global warming fixing this! We’ll achieve normalcy soon enough
Too bad nuclear winter will cancel it out.
That would raise the sea level almost as fast, and probably more than if the polar ice caps just melted on their own. Also didn’t it come from a comet? Last I checked comet ice isn’t the cleanest ice, it’s full of fun stuff like ammonia, cyanide, and formaldehyde.
Thus solving the problem once and for all
……but what about….
“Just like daddy pits in his dwink every morning… and then he gets mad.”
My brother in Amerigo Vespucci, there are maps from 500 years ago that show sea serpents on them. Are those real, too?
They all froze to death from all the snow of course. Geez do you even conspiracy theory bro?
Not anymore… 😢
That Terra Australis going wild in there, or is it the flat earth walls?
Walls. And a few rivers before they froze over as the sun got dimmer with all the 19th century soot.
Oh yes, Eastern Brazil was a rusty red plain in the early colonial era
also this map aint 500 years old. That sure looks like north america to me
They don’t want you to know about the lost expedition of 1524. This map is the only surviving evidence of when the famous explorer from Genoa The Barone Giusseppe Palloncino took his high altitude hot air balloon over the entire northern hemisphere.
If you’re so smart Mr. Smarty Pants then tell me this: Who invented snow, then? If you say Thomas Jefferson, then you’re wrong, he invented traffic lights, doofus.
The famous red wastes of Brazil.
Finally! A map that disproves New Zealand.
To be a winter child in this hot girl summer age, it wounds me!
I honestly thought this was a picture of a dirty dinner plate.
We all know map making was far superior 500 years ago. Those satellites only messed things up.
I see four white rectangles there. If that’s not proof of snow, then I don’t know what to tell you.
Man, I cant believe someone left the Antarctic freezer on for 500 years.
Sure. But don’t call me “500 year old map”. #commaSplice
