Discussion on MythVision Podcast (Flat Earth Caller Debunked Live!)

Dave appears on the MythVision podcast to discuss the flat earth phenomenon, in particular the recent devastation that was the David Weiss debate. To mix things up Derek invites a flat earther to call into the show, and comedy ensues. Only to be watched by those who are not sick of my flat earth content. You've been warned!

    Professor Dave, I hope my comment makes it to your eyes at some point. I know you’re a busy guy so reading every comment on your KZread channel is likely impossible. But I’ll leave this in the hope that you see it at some point. Mostly I want to say thank you. My daughter has some slight learning disabilities and her mother, my ex wife, is a flat earther. My daughter is 15 but with her learning issues has roughly a 2nd or 3rd grade math and science capability. Her mother had at one point attempted to “teach” my kid flat earth garbage. Basically, she was unsuccessful in part because I found your channel. The higher level debunks were a bit over her head, as physics and some other things are a bit out of reach for her still. But your videos that used zero science and only needed observation are the thing that made the switch flip in her brain. So you at bare minimum helped a LOT in saving her from the flat rabbit hole. We watched several of your other debunk videos and a lot of the more intricate science started to stick with her as well. Then, as I searched around on your channel, I found your tutorial videos. They’re absolutely amazing and are helping her with every aspect of math and science in school. They’re presented in a way that’s perfect for her. So we’ve been going through a bunch of your older videos and hitting all the stuff that’s at her level. And that level is going up very quickly! Plus, it’s given her a way to get legitimately interested in science, which had not been the case before. Your channel has become an invaluable resource for my family. I thank you so much!

    Excellent to hear. Dave probably is super busy, but this is the type of stuff anyone who loves science and teaches it like to here. It is part of why they do what they do. Flat Earth seems harmless at first glance, but it isn't harmless. Denial of reality leads to destruction. There are countless examples from the past where nonsensical ideas have lead to death and destruction. I am glad your daughter has been steered away from the Flat Earther stuff and hope she continues to learn and grow.

    Its not good reasoning because you are basically generalizing all flat earthers as being equally disparaging and giving license to treat them all with disdain, which is basically just another form of discrimination. Not all Christians are fundamentalists and not all flat earthers are as hateful to globers, and even with those that are...your approach is basically encouraging escalation. When two groups keep insulting each other and are okay with it getting worse and worse, eventually it will lead to some nutcase attacking someone. You guys basically almost arrived to that point. You can't be "too mean" to a flat earther? You're already on the road to dehumanizing your opponents, and its not hard to imagine what a group of people who by all accounts are likely poorly educated are going to do in response. We saw this when Trump encouraged a mob to form to "take back their country" after the "election was rigged". They tend to get violent if you push them over the edge. So please just think a little harder about your moral values and consider what you are pushing for. Its not "cool" to hate on people because you think its funny or because they belong to a cult. If anything they deserve sympathy and a helping hand, and if they are being antagonistic then just leave them alone. What Dan said to the flat earther in their debate was completely uncalled for. However smart he is he lacks the basic emotional intelligence to understand that when you treat people like crap, they are far less likely to understand your point and much more likely to respond with aggression. Ugh....all you guys make me so sad. No one understands what should be common sense.

    To be fair, lead by example is still a good tactic. You draw more flies with honey than vinegar. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind etc. Then consider how the human ego protects itself and remember a time when your mind was changed by an aggressive person. It creates a defensive barrier. Sometimes people are wise and take wisdom from it and can overcome that barrier. But we are dealing with people who are this deep down the rabbit hole. I'm all for standing up for yourself, but swinging down is rarely productive or helpful for anyone involved.

    That is 100% the mindset when you are at the point of "We can go see this together with our own eyes if you want?" and you get "Nope. It doesn't exist. Not real." The common sense response would be "Absolutely, lets go. You buy the tickets, I'll be there and history will be made." But the outright refusal to even take up that offer...means it's not so much that you think it's not real, but more so you are terrified of the reality of it being real and the implications it would have on your beliefs.

If the Earth was flat and just spinning, the sky would appear to rotate in a completely different manner.

The Andromeda galaxy is moving towards us. There are binary stars that are orbiting their Barrycenter. So yeah the sky, and everything you see in ut, is in fact moving. Thus is why when I am laying on the couch watching football and someone calls me a lazy bum for not moving I have to correct them because: The Earth is rotating on its axis; the Earth is also orbiting the sun which itself is rotating on its axis and is also orbiting the galactic center and pulling the earth along with it and the galaxy as a whole is dragging everything towards the Andromeda galaxy so I am technically moving in no less than 4 different ways.

    What’s deserved and what’s effective may not be the same. Nick Taleb, in his book “Anti-Fragile”, makes a good point that people tend to dig in more when their beliefs are attacked. A calm, fact-based discussion is more effective. Ridicule is unnecessary and only appeals to social pressure to change people’s minds, versus relying on facts.

It’s still a delicate balance, because many in the audience are those _duped_ by the charlatans... and seeing their “leader” attacked can give the illusion that they are “fighting the good fight.” The individual con-man might deserve the ridicule, but you’ll never reach them anyway; it’s worthwhile to consider how it’ll come across to the wider audience. To your point about respectful discourse...I don’t mind dialing back the respect-o-meter for the dishonest ones. However if someone is delusional, they could be so in an innocent way.

It's a religion, membership to which requires a pledge that your senses and discernment are entirely inadequate, and that you should outsource your mind to whoever around you controls the narrative. Essentially, you willfully demote yourself to the status of non thinking animal, because it excuses you for your degraded/childish selfish behaviour that you feel ok indulging in, because you're allegedly a random accident that came from scum whose life and decisions aren't important, regardless of the destructive impact they have on you and others over time.

    I think what people tend to ignore about these conspiracy theorists, is that this cult that they are in serves some unmet emotional need for them. They have this overwhelming desire to feel special, or contrarian, or to feel validation that they are willing to sacrifice nearly anything to satiate that void. There is no amount of evidence that they would accept that proves they are wrong, and the goal posts MUST shift necessarily to maintain their state. It's self indulgent, and narcissistic, but most of all it's incredibly sad.

    I wonder how many extremist conspiracy theorists have positive relationships with persons other than their mothers? Or with their on-line conspiracy group buddies? It's an obsession, like all others, which serves to distract the person from feelings of sadness and emptiness. All obsessions serve to mask negative feelings. Strip them away & the person previously encumbered with obsessive feelings about whatever, will suddenly feel the full weight of their real feelings and worries. Their self image will crumble if they lose the support of the others in their nutty conspiracy groups. They will lose their identity which is why they fight so hard to maintain their membership in the group. Being mavericks, free-thinkers or one of 'the few' to see the truth makes them special and brings the members closer together. Perhaps if we look at what has changed in human society that might go a long way to explain why we've entered this post-truth era and what human needs are no longer being met by society.

    People need to be taught critical thinking in school. They don't even bother teaching it in public school. When I first learned about logical fallacies in my early 30s, I thought it was the single greatest.. anything I've ever learned. But being 35 now, I realize how basic logical fallacies are. They should be the foundation of every lesson in basic schooling. But I never learned about any of it from my public school career, nor my 2 years in college. It really makes me worry for humanity socially when there are that many gullible people who don't know how to actually use their thought process to arrive at actual Truth. Instead, much like I was, most people are content to fill in the gaps of their knowledge with things they prefer to believe. Because of this, they get swindled, duped into scams, and believe just about any argument presented by a person who looks good and talks with confidence. Humanity today is a sea of people ripe for exploitation.. That honestly breaks my heart..
