It could be a simulation.
The earth is flat. Einstein proved that mass is interacts with space time by curving it. The result is a universal attraction between the elements called gravity and the perception of time.
Now humans percice this curvature of space time in 3 dimensions but that is not to say it is spherical it merely appears to be so. The matter is flat, space time curves around it.
Same applies to a train going the speed of light. Is it longer or shorter than the tunnel? Well it is both depending on the point of view of the observer.
To our observation the earth is round, but to an outside observer it would be flat. To a third party observer that is viewing our 3dimensional space from higher dimensionality it would be flat just like a paper is to us.
Its funny how they took such a beautiful theory and made it into “hur dur they think the world is flat like a pankake and that waterfalls off it!!!! Hardihar har!!!!”
The point was always about one thing. Dehumanizing. That was the point of the propaganda. Nothing more. Nothing less. There are no “flat earthers”. Its like the welfare queen. A proxy to justify racial discrimination. And look how much they love it!!!
Beware the flat earthers they scream. Lmao.
by the way the whole thing was made up by russian trolls to laugh at you leftists that believe the most absurd nonsense. The joke always was on you.
