>> [_] Anon 3363575 yessss another youtube rip thank you forever, /pol/
>> [_] Anon 3363578 maybe he has a point however isn't "right side up" determined by gravity? hmmm confusing
>> [_] Anon 3363585 even if the world was flat, i really dont see why it would matter for the average man, woman, or child. Being inhabitants of a planet or a plane doesn't change anything for the average day to day living of the inhabitants. Now I'm not a physicist or a trial lawyer or a mathematician, but I believe his fundamental premise is wrong. Air planes don't have to fly at the same altitude all the time and they do adjust their heading rather often, that's just silly. There's also the matter of gravity and perspective. If you observe the way insects live their daily lives, they will often do seemingly impossible feats like walk upside down on trees and ceilings and the like. But from their limited perspective, they are right side up. The problem is a matter of gravity, scale, and perspective. Are the people on the opposite hemispheres upside down? From the perspective from someone on the other side of the planet, maybe. But not from their own. Their center of gravity remains the core of the earth, just like the people who are 'right side up'. It's like when you go on top of a big hill and over look the ocean. In the distance the ocean looks like it is towering above the land, but in reality it isn't. Being tricked by perspective doesn't make you a fool, it doesn't interfere with your ability to hold math degrees or win jury trials. But that doesn't mean you are always right about other things.
>> [_] Anon 3363590 i guess a lot of people he knows is wrong about him not being a fool. i guess that makes them a bunch of fools as well
>> [_] Anon 3363597 >># I agree, the whole conversation about what the Earth's shape is fundamentally pointless. I think the main discussion behind what the Earth's shape is more about whether or not what you are being told is the truth or a lie.
>> [_] Anon 3363598 question everything do not think for a second that scientists (or any group) are beyond the pull or influence of money & power that being said I don't believe the earth is flat
>> [_] Anon 3363600 his argument is wrong because he rotates the globe around the plane when he goes east to west and then rotates the plane when he goes north to south. The relation of the start position of the plane is the same in east to west compared to north to south. In other words this guy is a fool.
>> [_] Anon 3363607 this is the most retarded flash I have seen this year. If you take a ball and put your thumb on the top of it, then slowly move the ball until you reach the other side, why in the fuck should your finger be upside down? This makes no fucking sense, when will demented people be neutered?
>> [_] Anon 3363610 >># >do not think for a second that scientists (or any group) are beyond the pull or influence of money & power True, but if you have hundreds of different scientific or research groups all coming to similar conclusions, you can trust that the conclusions are gonna be accurate.
>> [_] Anon 3363612 is this an actual flat earth argument? surely this isn't serious maybe I've just been brainwashed by "scientism", but haven't any flat-earthers heard of gravity?
>> [_] Anon 3363630 >># i agree, hinduism is the one and only truth
>> [_] Anon 3363636 Brilliant, how has no one else thought of this.
>> [_] Anon 3363647 >># >if you flew in an airplane 180 degrees around the earth from the north pole to the south pole you'd start off at a certain angle (relative to I dunno, the earth's axis) and end at 180 degrees to your initial angle Yep, makes sense to me >that proves the flat earth is impossible No, that proves that spheres... are spheres. Of course you don't *feel* upside down, because upside down doesn't really have any meaning in space. I love the way he just casually dismisses flying around the equator as making sense, as you start off "sideways" and end "sideways", which makes total sense to him. Literally retarded. >># They all believe it was made up, and that the flat earth is actually accelerating upwards at 9.8 m/s^2, for no apparent reason. There's a reason why the flat earth theory isn't exactly popular in the sciences.

>> [_] Anon 3226854 Well fuck me! Call me convinced. Earth is flat!
>> [_] Anon 3226858 I can't believe I sat through the like 10 minute into before the actual *proof* just for it to be a troll
>> [_] Anon 3226860 >># >implying it was a troll or are you saying up and down don't exist in outer space?
>> [_] Anon 3226862 >># Being a symptom of gravity, there is no up or down in space. There's only "over there". Vectors are a serious bitch.
>> [_] Anon 3226885 >># The longer you spend trying to tell me you're a fool, the more foolish you're probably about to look.
>> [_] Anon 3226911 u lost me in brain wash.
>> [_] Anon 3226913 That was the dumbest thing I heard in a long while. And if a guy start out with "I'm a smart guy because..." it automatically means that his argument doesn't hold on its own, like with religious guys against evolution.
>> [_] Anon 3226919 >Degree on math >Hurr Durr science was wrong all the way
>> [_] Anon 3226920 He's not a fool, he's a retard.
>> [_] Anon 3226921 >># >like with religious guys against evolution. Are you trying to insinuate that the dinosaurs did keep their noses down when heading south? It is obvious they didn't and flew off the planet. Religion = 1 Science = 0
>> [_] Anon 3226925 >># > You would be upside down > But people are on the earth are rightside up. Your feet, while in a plane, are always pointed towards the earth. The plane would have to be turned over with the cockpit facing the earth for the plane to be truly upside down.

>> [_] Anon 3222413 The only thing it proves is you can have a degree and still be dumb as fuck
>> [_] Anon 3222414 Wait, that's the end? I thought he was going to do more with the idea. All he did is prove that he's using the word "down" to refer to an absolute direction and not relative to the earth's core, in which case, yes people on the south pool do have their heads pointing down.
>> [_] Anon 3222415 >># I bet he is a hoot at the Thanksgiving Dinners.
>> [_] Anon 3222418 >doesn't mention gravity once >disingenuous scale of plane >implying you could just fly off the earth just make sure he isn't molesting kids ig
>> [_] Anon 3222419 >># Well that was disappointing. I guess this is meant to be a parody. Else I can't explain his "degree in math".
>> [_] Anon 3222428 >># math is pure logic. Logic and common sense are totally different things
>> [_] Anon 3222430 great.. I just lost my faith in humanity a little more today, thanks.
>> [_] Anon 3222431 Fun facts: you can get a bachelors degrees worth of math/statistics by only doing basic high school shit. I suspect that's why he's being so vague, only calling it "degree in math".
>> [_] Anon 3222433 >># Jesus I had to turn it off right at the beginning because he was sucking his dick so much. "I have a degree and have been practising law for ages and I do the hard law stuff not the easy ones!!!! so yeah I'm a pretty big deal"

>> [_] Anon 3222448 >what is gravity?
>> [_] Anon 3222450 gravity doesnt exist you bluepilled motherfuckers
>> [_] Anon 3222456 The fact that he has to literally choke back laughter a couple of times, especially when he says "Scientism" at the beginning strongly implies that this man is trolling.

>> [_] Anon 3222563 >># when I took a course in religious philosophy, it was described to me that there are 3 sources of knowledge. rationalism, empiricism, and mysticism. Rationalism describes pure logic, that is, given a and be, therefore c. Empiricism describes "we have observed a and b" which can be repeated by others. Mysticism describes "the knowledge came within in such a way as can not be repeated by others" (aka god came to me in a vision). so as I understand it, rationalism is the logic that flows from any given fact, but those facts are given by either empirical experiences or mystic experiences
