Spoiler alert: no, it is not refraction. The earth is not flat, and you suffer from cognitive dissonance because you will not believe it even if you see it with your own eyes. You waste half your life believing liars that peddle this flat earth garbage, and now your brain cannot even process what is given to you in plain sight. Brainwashed and broken. Hypnotized to reject reality.

The whole flat earth thing was amusing for like 5 minutes but get real flat fuckers, the Earth is a sphere. Not a perfect sphere, more like a deformed egg but still it's a globe.

It only looks round because of the water really.

Light side of the moon is perpendicular to the earth at all times, earth should be straight up, not at this angle.

[ - ] Her0n 3 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 14:03:42 ago (+3/-0)

Not perpendicular, nor is it parallel. They share the same light source, and since the moon revolves around the earth than means the "lines" of the light source cross every new moon approximately every 28 days.

[ - ] Prairie 0 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 16:36:11 ago (+0/-0)

You're confused; there is a side of the moon that is always facing Earth, but it's not always lit. Look up the phases of the moon. What's interesting is that this photo shows parts of the moon that we don't see from Earth.

You forget what a shadow is?

Where do you think the sun is positioned off camera in this shot? Could the sun possibly be only lighting half of the globe at a time? How mind bending!!

It's your fake image, you explain how it's supposed to work. Where are any stars for starters.

They're dim as fuck compared to being in direct sunlight.

He expects to see a sky full of stars during the day on earth as well

Well that one is easy, the stars rotate out of view during sunrise. /s

[ - ] Her0n 0 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 17:26:24 ago (+0/-0)*

Not my image bud, but I can still refute this.

You expect to see stars when the sun's light is overpowering the others?

Next you'll tell me you can see a sky full of stars during the daytime on earth!

The moon is too luminous during the day to see any stars in the sky, just like on our planet.

Every flat earther I've ever met is a christian who isn't ready to accept that the jew book is full of lies.

Meanwhile the Pagans know Yggdrasil is a metaphor for different spiritual planes, not a literal giant tree holding up other worlds.

Chronos is actually what is depicted as God, white bearded man in the sky, that's right, the magic sky daddy is actually a pagan invention. LOL.

The baby eating jews who run hollywood love their Cronus/Saturn symbolism. He's also Santa Claus which is a metaphor for communism which is jewish. So he's kinda been claimed by the jews.

Hey man, religion is a mystery. I find that the religion of my ancestors has called to me, but it's just an unjewed doorway to a deeper question. That said, you still gotta have some idea of what you think is out there, even if what you think is natural forces and evolutionary law created everything (they played their part).

If I was a flat earth retard, that photo wouldn't convince me otherwise. Photos from space, or a very high flying aircraft, like a U-2, SR-71 or Mig-31 are much better proof.

Also those photos of the bridge don't show the curve of the earth. I imagine that shape is from the engineers having to vary the elevation of the bridge to account for water depth or differences in land elevation on the 2 sides of the bridge.

But there's no point trying to convince retards to change their mind. Just look at religious people. I almost said christcucks there, but let's be real, every religious person is a retard, no matter what religion they follow, so it's not just them.

[ - ] usedoilanalysis 2 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 16:35:53 ago (+2/-0)

There's a hump in the middle so ships can pass under. That's the curve on the bridge.

[ - ] Prairie 1 point 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 16:38:14 ago (+1/-0)

Also those photos of the bridge don't show the curve of the earth. I imagine that shape is from the engineers having to vary the elevation of the bridge to account for water depth or differences in land elevation on the 2 sides of the bridge.

Or just basic structural issues: a bridge bowed up is stronger than a flat one, as weight in the center tries to push laterally. The Romans understood this with their mastery of arches.

[ - ] watts2db 0 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 14:00:45 ago (+0/-0)

exactly

[ - ] Spaceman84 -1 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 16:11:57 ago (+0/-1)

The water level does not vary significantly across a single body regardless of depth variation. Even if the elevation between one side of the bridge is different from the other side (this is rare) it would still be a straight line. The I-beams used to build the structure are not curved.

[ - ] usedoilanalysis 4 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 11:55:35 ago (+7/-3)

How far is that? Around 20 miles? There's roughly 15 degrees of curvature there. So either this is a fish eye lens, or the bridge isn't flat, or the Earth is about 3,000 miles in circumference. Well the Earth is is supposed to be ~24k miles in circumference, so that's not right. So either this is a fish eye lens or the bridge isn't flat. Nice try though.

No bridge is built like that with massive jumps in the middle.

There's a multitude of laser tests across water and land that show zero curve.

If the Earth curved that much in such a short span the Earth would be tiny as fuck. Thats an optical illusion.

At first, the flat earth stuff was amusing, for about 5 minutes, but I hope the kikes move onto something else. The level of stupidity required to believe that the earth is flat is just plain excruciating to witness. It is a convenient IQ test though.

I have driven that bridge 2000 times probably and u can't even almost see the other side when you first start driving.

[ - ] usedoilanalysis 1 point 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 16:38:51 ago (+1/-0)

There's 2 big humps and a curve to let ships pass near the middle, so yeah I can see that.

Very nice reference.

Globers doing the kvetching now.

Love to see their explanation as to why we can see the curve here but not in the pic of chicago from the shore of Lake Michigan.

The people refuting flat earth stuff just think it seems stupid, but most were only just introduced to the concept a couple days ago.

A few more days will go by and they will forget about it because it doesnt interest them.

[ - ] GetFuckedCunt 2 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 20:46:47 ago (+2/-0)

I've been at this for 7 months, after I did the research myself trying to prove curvature. There is none.

[ - ] oyveyo 1 point 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 10:37:29 ago (+4/-3)*

The legos do not appear to be in a straight line, if they were, the perspective line would be straight.
The other images are just retarded. Narrow FOV lens, angle of view and cropping unknown.

Your "evidence" is anything but. If you really are the serious flat-earther you claim to be (and not just a megatroll who gets his jollies annoying everyone on this site with this flat Earth bullshit), then post some REAL evidence that the Earth is flat.

[ - ] GetFuckedCunt 2 points 1.1 yearsApr 12, 2023 10:41:02 ago (+7/-5)

You people don't understand perspective. That is the entire point of this. Nothing to do with the lens used, that is how we view the horizon. Horizontal, not curved or it would be called "curvizon"

You lack the ability to discern evidence and you don't understand perspective at all.
