You know I actually find it rather interesting that you can see the age of an digital image. Even though its just bits and bytes.

That is oddly relevant :)

Oldie but Goldie.

Note that flat earth society are anti flat earthers.

i went ahead and looked that up:
and no they are definitely pro flat earthers

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You are correct and wtf?

There is some confusion on this matter, and I want to clear it up.

According to the global world map, and even according to the Gleason map, London is clearly located much further north, while on my map they are at roughly the same latitude. How can both of these be possible?

First, let's diagnose the issue physically:

that’s a rabbit hole i’m definitely staying away from… well except for: https://youtu.be/qJxW-nSsRlw

I'm pretty sure they were taking the piss out of flat earthers by pretending to be one of them.

Isn't that how the flat earth movement started in the first place? Like, the guy who started it did so as a joke and then people took it seriously and it spread?

They have pixels all around the globe.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Also more watermark.

I’m really confused. The only thing that they’re pointing to is “again”. I’m not sure what that means. Anyone willing to add some more arrows to help me understand?

[–] huppakee@piefed.social 4 points 2 months ago

Sorry buddy, i ran out of red circles already so have to use my black arrows sparingly today

[–] atopi@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 months ago

the arrow is actually 3d and pointing at the word globe

[–] qualia@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

The pointer is incidental. Their comment is pointing out that globe's are necessarily 3D spheres so (assuming it's not a one-liner joke) OP's post wouldn't be consistent with "members all around" a flat circular model of Earth.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Even the reply is unnecessary, let alone the arrow in the screenshot.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

I know, I just find two sentence posts with arrow indicators more than a little unnecessary. So I playfully misunderstood

I'm in Australia, near the southern ice wall!

Wait! Unless I'm meant to be doing the 'living in a giant tube thing' again.

Sometimes reality confuses me. BRB, checking on YouTube.

Hahahahahahahahaah

[–] one5low7@lemmy.org 1 points 2 months ago

thats what "they" want you to think

[–] lordnikon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Serious question I have always wondered how do flat earther's explain the iron core of the earth. How think do they think the flat earth is?
