These are three of our most recent discussions of Flat Earthers specifically. We’ve talked at length about them about 100 times over the years. Our new friend @XSIV might find these informative if they’re interested in Flat Earthing specifically rather than just the irreparably damaged relationship between their half brother and reality. And therefore between said half brother and themselves. From Dec 2022: > [@Taking Flat Earthers to space (legal question)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/taking-flat-earthers-to-space-legal-question/976660): > > Let’s say I offer take all of the major Flat Earth proponents to space and then do so with those that volunteered. Assume I have hold-harmless agreements and releases so I can video them and publish the videos and I allow them to bring any scientific equipment they want and anything else to prove that what I am doing is fake. I intend to interview them on what they observe and then put them to the ultimate test of their convictions. And they knew all of this was part of the plan before they a… From Feb 2024: > [@Are Most Flat Earthers Trolls?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/are-most-flat-earthers-trolls/997011): > > I have been getting lots of flat earth posts in my FB feed lately. It is all so crazy. I know a few people believe it, but is it mostly trolling like the Birds Aren’t Real folks? If not, god help us From Nov 2024: > [@Do flat earthers actually believe their stated beliefs? Or are they just having a laugh at taking up space in our heads?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/do-flat-earthers-actually-believe-their-stated-beliefs-or-are-they-just-having-a-laugh-at-taking-up-space-in-our-heads/1010380): > > I personally don’t know anyone that claims to be a FE believer. Granted, I don’t talk with legions of people, so the sample pool is relatively small. The reason I doubt is that it is so easy to disprove. I can go onto Amazon and buy everything I need to send a GoPro into the upper atmosphere and safely recover it for less than $500. There are plenty of YT videos doing just that. If that’s to steep for one person, surely they can come up with two or three friends to split the cost. Hell, I’… Welcome friend. Good luck with your various family and personal demons. We’re a generally friendly bunch here but we do prefer to talk about one thing per thread. A personal introduction and a flat earth CT rant don’t really go together, even though each is certainly welcome separately. I hope you’ll take some time to look around at test the waters here more thoroughly. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/flearthers/1017216)._
