MODERATORS
I’ve heard some say that they think the moon is a real, spherical body in the sky. While others disagree and think it’s either a simulation or something else entirely.
The problem with them is that they all have a different idea that goes with their view of this conspiracy theory so they all believe something different than the next. The grouping of them is so small that they never got a chance to really develop a singular idea beyond agreeing among themselves that the world is flat.
My favorites are The ones who think that the Earth is kind has kind of a rim around the edge and the moon rolls across that like a ball lol
But I've seen plenty of them that are perfectly fine believing that all of the other planets are spheres.
It doesn't really matter, I always just tell them to lower a GoPro over the edge and let us know what they find down there. I mean if there's an edge there's got to be something under it right? Well they better get going, that award-winning documentary isn't going to make itself.
That's fascinating. Why do they think Earth is Not Like The Other Planets?
Having worked with several conspiracy theorists I can tell you with confidence that the reasons are always a disappointment.
The only thing they have to agree on is that they know better than the normies.
