In this episode we pick up where we left off in the last episode, ‘New Flat World Order 1 Flimflammers Charlatans and Snake Oil’ with Flat Earth Theory’s introduction to the interwebs in the naughties through Daniel Shenton.
Unlike 19th century pseudoscience quack Samuel Rowbotham, actual research and experimentation or at least the illusion of it seem to be of no interest to Shenton and his followers.
We will also deep dive into the most egregious and objectionable of the current flat earth peddlers, YouTube Yoga instructor Eric Dubay, head of the International Flat Earth Research Society and his, ‘200 Proofs Earth is Not a Spinning Ball.’
I will focus on his blatant dishonesty and the attitude he has towards his reader. You won’t be surprised by his complete and utter lack of even the most basic scientific knowledge. You will be surprised by just how much he thinks he can hide that ignorance from his intellectually limited audience.
From making ridiculous claims like he can see right through the ‘transparent’ moon to fraudulently misrepresenting scientific papers he didn’t understand. With a straight face and no shame he proudly announces he does not know the difference between a rocket and a jet or how they work and yet he’s the one to expose the Flat Earth truth!
But Dubay is not the only science denying history whitewashing reprobate we investigate. There’s also Tila Tequila. Remember her? No, didn’t think so.
Or what about Noel Hadley who believes Lucille Ball was a witch who’s ancestry can be traced back to the Salem Witch Trials?
He also believes the atomic bomb is a hoax. The great American pastime of Baseball is actually a Freemason ritual. The 1893 Chicago World Fair was a hoax to re-write the true history of Chicago actually being a city that was established hundreds of years before European settlement. Aids, malaria, polio and Covid 19 are all hoaxes. The Manson family, Nancy Kerrigan and Lorena Bobbitt cases were all hoaxes. Being a Flerfer is just the tip of the iceberg that sunk the Titanic with this guy, which he also believes is a hoax.
When you hear about these outrageous pundits of Flat Earth Theory you’ll think you’re being Punk’d. Speaking of which we’ll also talk about former cast member of that MTV show, Owen Benjamin.
We learn about the dubious relationship daredevil Mad Mike Hughes had with the community and what the young Earth creationists over at Answers in Genesis think of the whole thing.
And of course we can’t forget star of the Netflix Documentary, Behind the Curve, Mark Sargent in this Dunning Kruger effect on steroids filled episode.
