What's a more relevant question is why do people believe in a flat earth? I'd really like to know. This groups existence discredits all movements that do not trust established institutions of knowledge. Crazy is a spectrum, some crazy is necessary for growth, if not no institutions of power and knowledge would have been toppled and we'd still be in the dark ages. Too much, and well, we have this worthless debate sucking millions of collective hours from humanity.

My personal opinion is that FE is a psyop that has tricked some truthers and christians into believing it.
Obama, when replying a climate change skeptic replied 'this is not a meeting of the flat earth society'.
Obama directed people to the FE Society and labelled anyone questioning climate change in with flat earthers. This reminds of CIA Memo 1035-960 where they weaponized the term 'conspiracy theory' to attack anyone questioning the JFK assassination. It is an effective that has worked for them in the past and they are using it again only know they have switched it to FE.
The FE Society looks like a psyop front to me. Their theories are easy to debunk and I believe that is by design. Nowadays, when people mention a conspiracy some people reply with 'you probably believe in flat earth as well'.
This is designed to discredit the conspiracy theory that is being discussed and associate it with FE.
