I have very sensitive antennae when it comes to flat earth bullshit and also started to develop an allergy to non-science. So I beg your pardon that I asked…
I think there’s a lot of friendly and socially conscious people on here but I’m so bad at detecting tone though text, and I feel like I’ve been seeing more open vileness from bigoted and conspiratorial types recently even on a lot of the the better parts of Lemmy
Sorry captain, but I’ve heard a lot of Flat Earthers that use that exact phrase and act like its a gotcha that the Earth supposedly moves with 1675 km/h (it doesn’t, it rotates at a 15 degrees per hour drift Thanksbob) can’t be felt.
Wow, I’m surprised they even try to explain it mathematically at all. Like, if you’re going to believe something crazy, numbers clearly aren’t going to make or break your conviction.
Maybe I should’ve put this in lemmyshitpost because I didn’t expect anyone to think it was serious.

Well you aren’t the only one, so maybe I should have laid the sarcasm on more clearly. I thought most people would read the title as tongue-in-cheek.

It’s The Picard Maneuver…! This is a safe space, Mon Ami!

Oh yeah, they use loony toons maths to explain certain aspect of reality while a globe earth would explain it all at the same time.
I thought everywhere was lemmyshitpost.
Any intelligent joke requires a disclaimer because of flat earthers, Qanoners and conservatives.
