Finally! A map that disproves New Zealand.
My brother in Amerigo Vespucci, there are maps from 500 years ago that show sea serpents on them. Are those real, too?
They all froze to death from all the snow of course. Geez do you even conspiracy theory bro?
Not anymore… 😢
To be a winter child in this hot girl summer age, it wounds me!
We all know map making was far superior 500 years ago. Those satellites only messed things up.
Then what are the white sections of land on the top right and left?
You leave my cocaine alone.
I believe you mean our cocaine, comrade.
They had to build a really tall ladder to get this view. Quite the project.
what cured ass projection is this?
Sure. But don’t call me “500 year old map”. #commaSplice
“Ice? There’s never been any ice! Ice is just a myth.”
Imagine a world without cocaine, vast, continent-covering amounts …
If you’re so smart Mr. Smarty Pants then tell me this: Who invented snow, then? If you say Thomas Jefferson, then you’re wrong, he invented traffic lights, doofus.
The famous red wastes of Brazil.
There is a map showing a very detailed coastline of Antarctica including mountains and rivers from hundreds of years ago that describes it as a place that is very hot and full of snakes. The original map-maker said he had combined maps from multiple sources to create that map. You could argue that the description was false and intended to keep people away, but how did they see the coastline? It is at the very least evidence that Antarctica was not covered in ice at some point during not so distant human existence.
If you’re talking piri reis the “iceless antarctica” map theory got debunked years ago. It’s south america with period inaccuracies.
No it’s not. It’s not like people haven’t mapped, measured, and studied the ice for generations. If it had been like that any time in human history, there would be able evidence.
The Late Cenozoic Ice Age has seen extensive ice sheets in Antarctica for the last 34 million years.
I honestly thought this was a picture of a dirty dinner plate.
Okay, okay, alright, somebody, someone somewhere…
You have to tell me, how the fuck do they make money from being intentionally stupid?
How the fuck?
There’s no way they’re doing this by accident.
There’s no way they’re actually this stupid.
There has to be an angle.
What the fuck is the angle?
How the fuck are they funding their lives by saying shit like this?
what’s the angle
They want to make people suspicious of those who tell them that this year is the hottest since we started keeping records, and that is a big fucking problem that will probably cost us every low lying country and every coastal city and every beach
In Kim Stanley Robinson’s near future sci-fi people dredge up the old beaches to build new beaches
Engagement bait. Algorithm recommends them to more people. They get more money from ads.
The angle is having an ingroup. Build a community around absolutely anything and people will come, just so they can belong. Flat earth is just one of these. Flerfers are funny because it’s so absurd, but the same psychology is at play for e.g. the manosphere, local sports teams and anything else if you look hard enough.
And they pay the bills via advertising. Another win for capitalism. Yay.I’m convinced none of these people actually believe this stuff and they just think they are being funny
Selling “secret knowledge” to stupid people has always been a profitable grift
Apparently twitter has a system where they’ll pay you for posts with a lot of attention, regardless of it’s quality. Pays less than minimum wage but some do it full time anyways.
Having followers is a path to monetizing new lies against them in the future… best I’ve got.
Garbage in, garbage out
Combination of targeted oil money bribery + whipping up tribalism, some explicitly sell their souls while others tie their self-worth to a lie
