Gotta give him some respect for admitting he was wrong, and doing so several times. Everyone is wrong from time to time, but barely anyone can openly admit it.
99% of doing science is being wrong and being happy about it
99% of the time, I make up statistics
You can tell their intelligence rises over the course of the series because they go from portrait to landscape videos.
Isn’t there a documentary flat earthers filmed in which they debunked their own beliefs?
It’s a really good documentary because a lot of them actually want to be scientific about it.
But instead of following the scientific process of test->observe->draw a conclusion, they start with the conclusion and look for a way to prove it. And when the prof isn’t there, they simply say the test was flawed, and move on to the next test that will prove it.
It’s sad in a way. I don’t think, most of them anyway, are con man. They’re just misguided.
I will say, starting with a conclusion/theory is fine, but the next step is to do everything you can to disprove it. The more you and other fail, the stronger it becomes
Beyond the Curve! Great doc.
I would also highly recommend folding ideas "in search of a flat earth."
It covers the actual flat earth claims in depth, but is very much about the culture, and why that culture exists.
We need more people like that in the world
Imagine what the world would be like if the con artists pulling this stuff were pushing people to build libraries and educate kids.
6 stages of denial.
