I’ve heard some say that they think the moon is a real, spherical body in the sky. While others disagree and think it’s either a simulation or something else entirely.
The problem with them is that they all have a different idea that goes with their view of this conspiracy theory so they all believe something different than the next. The grouping of them is so small that they never got a chance to really develop a singular idea beyond agreeing among themselves that the world is flat.
Aren’t all of those just fake images the government displays on the dome LCD covering the world inside ice walls? If they were real they would have dropped out of the sky already.
I’m definitely not a Flat Earther, but I watched a documentary about them and a lot of them seem to think the Earth is flat and the sky is like a glass dome, and the other stars and planets are presumably just projected onto the dome somehow? Kind of like this: metro.co.uk/wp-content/…/flat-earth-1.jpg
As for what’s beyond the dome or why nobody’s ever encountered the edge of it, I honestly couldn’t tell you lol.
If you’re trying to apply reason to the theory, I think you’re misunderstanding the theory.
When you dig to the roots of flat earth, it’s a “don’t trust the secret globalist government feeding you lies” kind of thing (Aka a dog whistle for antisemitism)
I don’t think flat-earthers are capable of indulging in concepts like other planets. They’re entire personalities are completely dedicated to indulging in their silly “theories” and insisting that it’s important.
For example, have you ever asked a flat earther what possible incentive could there be for “the government” to lie about the shape of the Earth? The only answer they’ve ever given me is “control”, then they get very smug as if this someone proved something and won’t really discuss it any further. I don’t think they’re capable of imagining anything beyond that.
I can’t imagine how the shape of our planet can be used to control us. I mean, if the earth was neither round nor flat, but… I don’t know, toroidal. How would that affect our behavior?
Is non-Euclidean geometry more likely to make the population docile?
And why not use the flat earth as a form of control? Since that vision is much more limited than the traditional one, since there is no space, no gravity, no planets, no stars and no cosmos. Just what you can see and nothing more.
For most of them nothing is real, neither the stars nor the planets, and any mention of those things before modern days was planted by the shadow government or something. Some even think the moon is fake too and the sun is some kind of big light bulb in the sky or whatever.
More than believers, they are deniers, of everything.
