Why wouldn't he take the free trip to Antarctica again?


buderooski89

Exactly. Prove your theory once and for all by taking the trip to Antarctica and documenting what you see. He won't do it because he knows it's all bullshit and he doesn't want to lose his revenue stream


PM-ME-YOUR-SOURCE

Hypothesis! We need to start using the correct word for what flat earth is, not a theory.


Defiant-Giraffe

"fever dream" seems needlessly exciting though. 


Mr_Epimetheus

It's the flat earth delusion. Their "hypotheses" have been tested and disproven, multiple times because what they believe is all junk "science". We need to get back to ridiculing nonsense like this and getting people the mental health treatment they need.


NavyBabySeal

I mean, technically, its not a hypothesis, but a "theory", because its different from a hypothesis. A hypothesis is related to a concrete experiment where you predict a certain outcome (your hypothesis, for example that a gyroscope won't detect drift over time, that you'd expect on a rotating earth), and by doing the experiment you either prove the H0 (null hypothesis) and support your theory, or you disprove your hypothesis and observe a 15 degree per hour drift). A theory is the final explanation you can give about what something is, and flat earth is that, a "theory". Although a completely unfounded one, with no observation or data to support it, with several failed experiments not showing the expected outcome.


PM-ME-YOUR-SOURCE

No it's not a theory, it's a hypothesis. I apologize but you're completely buking it friend. A hypothesis is a testable idea. The colloquial use of THEORY is bastardized from the original scientific terminology. It's incorrectly becoming synonymous with hypothesis. Which is why flerfs say "gravity is just a theory after all" - ridiculous. Look up the etymology of theory. A scientific theory is an established explanation of facts that is verifiable and allows for reproducible accurate predictions. Flat Earth is NOT a theory. It's a hypothesis at best and a terrible one at that.


Russc70

A Null Hypothesis at that.


SomethingMoreToSay

Or exactly the opposite.


Good_Ad_1386

Grift. Joke. Fantasy. Delusion. (according to the type of person asserting it)


Andrelliina

The null hypothesis is that the world is what it is, a globe. The null hypothesis is the default hypothesis.


Russc70

In scientific research, the null hypothesis (often denoted H0)[1] is the claim that the effect being studied does not exist.


Andrelliina

Yes and the claim of a flat earth is the hypothesis being tested.


Russc70

And it doesn’t exist, hence null. Actually, my original comment was more aimed at the world null meaning invalid, not necessarily from a statistical standpoint.


Particular_Advance84

Bullshit hypothesis you are right that’s much better, thank you.


PM-ME-YOUR-SOURCE

Count me in in that terminology.

eggtoter

Flat earth is an optical illusion.


Speciesunkn0wn

Delusion. Not hypothesis. Hypothesis are meant to be tested, flerfs don't test their hypothesises, thus they are merely delusions.


No-Process249

Say he's a grifter (I think most of them are), then he's missing a trick, imagine the exposure and hits your flerf channel would get, if you went to Antarctica and had an epiphany, you see the (quite literally) glaring issue, of Sol 24 hours spiralling overhead, by jove we are on a globe!


Hairy_Cube

Sadly none of them will ever do that since that ends the money stream, it’s a one time super fund that either ends that career or will otherwise be completely ignored and a waste of time for them.


Starshot84

I forgot all about that trip! What's stopping people from just pretending to be a flerf to get a trip to Antarctica? Is no one pining for the fjords?


nidelv

I've seen fjords, maaan....


Altea73

Why give this guy anything for free? Particularly a trip to anywhere but back to school....


El-pollo-loco-

Deluded people either avoid reasonable evidence or dismiss it with a conspiracy theory.


tvscinter

Well if he takes a free trip there and his theories are disproved he will say the world organizations took him somewhere else to try n cover it up


Fit-Boomer

Listen! Listen!!


angryitguyonreddit

There was free trips to Antartica? I wanna go! Where do you sign up?!?!?!


Defiant-Giraffe

Yeah, I feel left out too.  A youtuber is doing what he's calling "The Final Experiment." Basically, he's trying to get one of the well-known flat earth content producers to go to Antarctica to witness the 24 hour sun themselves. 


Ok-Scientist-691

Because he makes millions from dumb fucks watching him make shit up on YouTube. The longer he can keep that going the better.


Ffdmatt

Is there a free trip to Antarctica? I'm down to high five a penguin, tbh.


No-Process249

Mental illness, "LISTEEEN, get rid of your programmed mind...", I don't think he's aware of the irony there.


Afoolfortheeons

Actually, um, perpetuating these sorts of crazy alternative narratives acts as a sort of dazzle camouflage for certain agencies, institutions, and networks to conduct bold operations in the open without worrying about any significant percentage of the population being conscious, aware, or concerned about it. I say this as someone who they made schizoaffective in order to produce certain propaganda and do a specific counterintelligence job here on Reddit, and if you don't believe me, I have a document pinned on my profile with all the significant propaganda that I have written for them in the almost tens years they've been controlling me through synchronicity-based inputs for you to decide if you give enough of a shit to see what we put out in the open. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've taken a handful of Benadryl and I'm preparing to masturbate for a few hours to the most depraved, unholy, and sick things that a human being can think of, and no I'm not just saying that to intentionally discredit myself, as is for my job for which I am paid. I'm just more fucked in the head as Ed Kemper’s victims.


justglassn

Lol what if? That's the whole video. What if my dick is a planet?


Defiant-Giraffe

Then its probably in orbit near Uranus. 


Igotyoubaaabe

“What if” is literally “evidence” to them. This guy is either mentally ill or a grifter, or both.

NLtbal

Good bot!


These-Acanthaceae396

Wait for the shock and awe when you realize it is.


GFerndale

My take is that he's a lying grifter. If he wasn't, he'd go to Antarctica. As he won't go all his arguments are null and void.


Thrawn89

Don't discount mental illness


licancaburk

Yeah, I think he just wants to make content in this flat earth bubble and get money from patrons.


EmperorBamboozler

I like how he opens it with a completely insane statement and everything he says afterwards just confirms he doesn't know what he's talking about. I get it, in flat earth circles NASA is the boogyman. You are going to need to explain how they work with all intelligence agencies though if you are talking to people outside of your particular community. Saying something like NASA is the head of all global intelligence agencies right at the start just tanks everything you're going to say after that. Even if you believe it to be true it's a horrible opening because the rest of the speech *needs to fucking address what you just said* not any of this stuff about Antarctica that comes afterwards. If you feel the need to say something like that with zero explanation, put it on the end as a tagline to the whole thing so that people are already onboard due to the "evidence" in the speech. Also kind of funny he said they control the KGB. Did he mean in the modern era? Cause he probably should have said SVR or FSB if he did. Small nitpick but the KGB hasn't been around for 33 years now.


elchemy

Misread NSA once, got confused. This is 30 years later.


gravitykilla

>I get it, in flat earth circles NASA is the boogyman. You are going to need to explain how they work with all intelligence agencies Not just that, there are 70 goverment space agencie around the world, and as of 2024, there are over 100 private companies globally involved in various aspects of space exploration, satellite technology, space tourism, and other space-related activities, and yet for Flerfs and in particular Dave, its always just NASA.


Mr_DrProfPatrick

Hey there's still a kgb in Belarus. Or maybe the kgb is like the illuminati and they just pretend to have ended while actually they took over the entire world even harder /s


JayTheFordMan

This is what they do, throw a bunch of statements out there as an argument without anything to back it up or connecting them together, as if the series of statements make a coherent and valid hypothesis. Only low IQ people will gobble it up without a shred of critical thought


No_Introduction8285

Elon Musk is in on it with SpaceX, making propaganda videos showing his rockets going up past the dome and docking with the made up space station.


michaelozzqld

There's an around Antarctic yacht race , there are thousands of people who travel to the Antarctic each year.... flyovers, eco tourism, all kinds of things... lol. There are no secret lands


JayTheFordMan

I believe most FEs are Americans, and most of those have never set foot outside America, so would have zero idea of anything that happens outside


Partyatmyplace13

It's virtually exclusively religious fundamentalists looking for any modicum of scientific credibility. It's why their models only have to answer a single question and they need multiple models to explain every discrepancy, none of which work together (them trying to explain the seasons, while maintaining a day/night cycle is an absolute treat). They know their intended audience isn't going to look any deeper than hot take they can parrot.


craigmont924

That everything that comes out of Dave Weiss's mouth is BS.


kat_Folland

michaelozzqld

Lol! What a crock.


Dark_Matter_Nebula

Admiral Byrd was referring to land that hadn’t YET been explored, but has already since been explored. It’s interesting that during his debate with Professor Dave, they said he was talking about the Bible and creation and that it was created for us as a flat earth, but he denied that it was him…and yet..here he is again talking about being the center of creation. #gottalietoflerf


Kriss3d

Hey Flat earth Dave.. That photo that you claimed was from Nasa from the mara rover.. The one that you claim is photoshopped ( correctly for once) but that it's taken from Devon island ( it's not) which is located in Greenland ( it's not. It's in Canada) but actually is taken from Ireland. The wiki page I belive. You still. Not admitted to be lying about that?

This is so real. I had to talk to my brother in law a week ago and he was rambling on about how demon possession was real. Like, I get it. I also wish Harry Potter was real, but I just can't get there.

Chicken-Rude

so dumb. everyone knows the world used to be flat, but then the greys and the reptilians made it round with the power of the pyramids in order to enslave mankind in a spirit prison. smh, dumbasses.


theroguex

"what if what if what if what if what if" Shut up with the what ifs and give us actual testable hypotheses, along with a model that explains all of our observations at the same time.


Fnabble

"They're all in it together!" And there it is, the desperate rallying cry of the conspiracy theorist. This is the basic premise and the "logical" conclusion of their argument. It obviously makes no sense whatsoever, and has no actual evidence, but it is the core of their warped ideology. And do they ever make any attempt at proving it or finding evidence for it? Nope! And that is VERY telling.


Spicy_Ninja7

The guy was exactly right, they all have “flat earth maps” in their logo because they can’t have a globe logo and display all of the nations. But Dave just cut him off


TheEndCraft

Its pretty darn stupid would be my take

fullmoontrip

Yes, but let's not let it slide that Chris was the dipshit of his day and actually thought the earth was 75% the size that it actually is. He contested thousands year old calculations and he was indeed, dumb and stubborn as hell. Then he stole a ship despite being told how very wrong he was, set sail for where he thought India was, landed in the americas by luck more than much else, was still so stupid and stubborn he didn't realize he was in not the right place at all, looked around and said "wow look at all those Indians!". Then he started doing....worse things

TheScienceNerd100

"Who supports NASA?" *lists off random organizations people associate with bad things* *Interviewer takes it as face value without questioning for literally any shred of evidence* Obv the FBI and CIA maybe cause they are US organizations, but the CCP has their own space organization.

Great. Then provide evidence for it..

If you're so obsessed with this theory, accept the trip to Antarctica and go prove it once and for all.

Unlikely_Mine2491

Honestly, my take is that this guy doesn’t believe a word of what he is saying, but he’s a smug, tool of a person, who likes to surround himself with people dumber than he is so he won’t feel small anymore, so he spouts what he knows full well is meaningless, chopped logic, drivel, in part to draw in sheepish, gullible folk to nod, wide-eyed, while he pontificates, while simultaneously making anyone with the barest of common sense run for the hills. It’s all an intelligence filter.


LtMoonbeam

Id believe that better if NASA wasn’t struggling for funding


Tartan-Special

That Admiral Bird thing was all based on his "journal" which has been debunked for the longest time. As soon as I hear "Operation Highjump" I just switch off


Unlikely_Mine2491

My take is that if NASA can coordinate the greatest, most intricate hoax in the history of mankind, uniting known, lifelong enemy states in a half-century long lie, why can’t they just pretend they built a millennium falcon and take our immediate, undying adulation? Oh, and why can’t they have some fsb goon disappear a doofus like David Weiss while they’re at it?


Zediatech

Nobody that lives in reality needs to debate him. Just have them debate other flat earthers, because they cannot agree on anything other than their basic idea that the Earth is flat.

Gosh but wouldn’t this just be SO COOL? Other lands to explore? New civilizations beyond the ice wall… this sounds like an awesome fantasy trilogy but it would be in real life


Horror_Business_7099

I don't think it's money they desire. I think Flat Earth gets them validation they crave and can't get through typical means (successful career, family, etc ...) They pretend the earth is flat. They invented a way to be experts in something. Furthermore, they've found a way to maintain it by denying any logic, evidence, proof, etc... by steadfastly claiming massive Government coverup. I'm a way, it's genius. I mean, if you are a loser with no hope, what better way to join a huge community of people JUST LIKE YOU. Losers with no hope.

Antarctica was discovered in 1830 and was set foot upon until 1870 Edit: the logos thing came from Hammonds 1930 air age map of the world because the Northern Hemisphere is more populated than the southern Hemisphere so it makes more sense to make a map centered on the North Pole

Justthisguy_yaknow

Deep psychological delusions are a hell of a thing. Most of that was built on a single comment Admiral Byrd made in the 1950's that didn't say anything like what the flerfs rewrote for their propaganda. He was only referring to the unexplored parts of Antarctica at that time, nothing more.
