Well, did you personally prove that the earth is round?
I suspect that most of round-earthers didn't prove it themselves as well.
The problem is infeasiblity; it's infeasible for a regular person to confirm most of the scientific findings.
For example, ~75% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. They already have a hard time putting food on the table.
This kind of arguments against flat-earthers needs to be retired. It doesn't make sense to dare a person to confirm any scientific finding.
Let's just call spade a spade: Round-earthers believe the earth is round because they listen to the right experts. Flat-earthers believe the earth is flat because they listen to the wrong experts.
We are just listeners. Let's stop acting like we prove these scientific findings ourselves.

- Yetanfou 8y agoUnless you're in the 'all potential evidence is faked' groupd I'd say the imagery provided by the flock of geostationary meteorological satellites is enough evidence to prove the earth is anything but flat. How else would it be possible to piece the overlapping imagery of these satellites together into a flat surface? Any flat-earthers around here who want to give it a try can get some imagery at [1] and start puzzling it all together. [1] https://en.allmetsat.com/ https://en.allmetsat.com/
- somethingle234 8y agoTo start off, I believe that those photos are not fake. But let's say someone says they don't know if the photo is a fake. How would you show that the photo is not a fake? For this question, I wonder if eventually the answer will be: well, we have to trust someone. I want to say that there's nothing wrong with saying that I trust the photo is not a fake because the person who presents it looks trustworthy.
