Despite experiencing the famed ' midnight sun ' and other seasonal phenomena confirming the earth's round shape, Alaskans proved to be the most curious about 'Flat Earth' theories, typing in 23,040 flat earth searches last year alone, or 314.33 searches per 10,000 residents

As many as 10 percent of Americans still believe the earth is flat, according to a 2021 survey

The present Flat Earth heresy was conjured up by obama.

Of course searches for “Russiagate” and the sort were not included since the authors believed them to be fact.

It’s interesting that the Mississippi River is a clear dividing line: The most flat-earth friendly states are west of the river; and the least are east of the river. It’s almost as if there is some correlation to magnetic north and declination (East is Least and West is Best; Least meaning less, or subtract, and Best meaning more, or add).

The author is trying to discredit conspiracy theorists.
I wonder how much the Illuminati paid him to do that.

Searches are not belief.

Lots of people go to the "flat earth" sites to see the insanity, and to mock the flat earthers.

Sure looks like being a conspiracy nut is “bi-partisan”. LOL. I’m shocked that Nevada and my home state of Arizona aren’t at the top. Heh.

Earth’s greatest minds have known our world is round since at least as far back as the day Pythagoras made his calculations in ancient Greece over 2,000 years ago.


Pythagoras learned that from math passed down from the Egyptian Archaic Period and Old Kingdom Egypt during his years living in Egypt.

The-world-is-round math is incorporated in the design of the monuments on the Giza Plateau and in the construction of the Great Pyramid.

Some very intelligent people believe in incredibly silly theories.

One of the smartest people I knew (dead now), a serious genius, believed in the "hollow earth" idea. He never took a basic physics course. He was mostly self-taught, and a genius in his field (farming).

The current, most damaging "flat earth" theory is the neo-Marxist set of "Critical" theories, such as Critical Race Theory. They form what is a secular fundamentalist religion.

No matter how many times their theories fail in the real world, no matter how much suffering and death they produce, they always believe "we just did not do enough, we need to do more".

Flat earth belief is actually a modern phenomenon. Various movements began in the early 1900’s, but today’s variety is mostly based on YouTube videos that have gained a following. The world has no shortage of gullible idiots.

If there is an annual awards ceremony in hell for “The most ridiculous lie ever sold to humans”, there is most likely a very proud demon somewhere gloating over his grand prize trophy entitled “Flat Earthers”... which to this day brings the biggest rounds of laughter whenever it is mentioned.

A more important question is to find out how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

New Jersey—hollah!!!!

We do believe, though, that the ghost of Jimmy Hoffa, burdened with heavy chains, the links of which he himself forged throughout life, comes out to terrorize the people of the Meadowlands every Christmas Eve.

Liberals can’t even define a woman without having a biology degree and believe there are hundreds of human “genders,” whatever those are.

“Flat-earthers” are the least of our problems.
