They're the same stock as anti-vaxxers, young Earth creationists and so forth; there's a lot of cross-pollenation. You're seeing perhaps the silliest blip on the radar, the most reflective peak, and ignoring the huge iceberg of harmful ignorance and reactionary anti-science it represents.
- ssklash 7y agoThis. These people vote. If the people they want to elect share even a few of their anti-science, essentially anti-reality views, that affects us all negatively. Political party doesn't even come into it, since any politician not operating based on reality is a horrible outcome. Politics has enough theories and things reasonable people can disagree on without having to debate science from hundreds of years ago.
- catalogia 7y agoThere are no flat earth politicians getting elected. You are grossly exaggerating the harm a flat earther stuntman has caused by lumping him in with other people who believe and did other things. It's disgusting. What's next, blaming your neighborhood moon landing denialist for global warming? Get a grip.
