FLAT EARTH DEBATE TACTICS 3 of 10

Tactic 3: Acknowledge Ad Hominem Attacks and Press Forward

Acknowledge personal attacks and move forward. What this means is simple: when someone arguing against you is resorting to name calling it’s because they lost the debate and it’s to their advantage to end it. They do so by attempting to demoralize, distract, and turn you off of the debate by attacking your personal character. your intellect. your ideas, your looks, or whatever they can grab a hold of in order to cause you to stop presenting factual arguments before them.

Here’s a quick example:

“You’re mentally deficient so get a job,” a glober might say.

Your response:

“I agree. I am mentally deficient and unemployed, which means NASA would probably hire me. By the way, THE EARTH HAS NO CURVE.”

See what I did there? Like a Judo master, use the force of the enemy against them by sidestepping and redirecting it. Don’t let their mean comments faze you. Acknowledge it, don’t ignore it. If you ignore it they will repeat the tactic and that’s not constructive. Acknowledge and fire back with a factual argument.

These Flat Earth debate tactics are about getting these arguments to happen. We want the debate. So when someone says, you’re an ugly basement dwelling high school dropout neanderthal and that you have no right to talk about outer space because you're not an astrophysicist, you can take it all in stride knowing that outer space is a myth and that you have the truth on your side.

when they give you that argument you can say, “I am a proud basement dweller. But how does this change the fact that the Earth isn’t a ball?”

Sometimes it’s fun to go down to their level and call them brainwashed globetards and New World Order Sucklings, which is fine to do because you want to demonstrate that you’re not ashamed of your position while their own position is indeed something to be ashamed about. So long as you follow up your own jabs with statements advancing your argument you're not backsliding.

Don't fall into the trap of mutual mud flinging which often escalates into ALL CAPS or worse, ceasing the talk altogether. This can have the unintended consequence of mudding the comments section to the point where no one want to get into it. If you don’t have a thick skin yet, you haven’t done your time in the trenches. But don’t worry, since the truth is on your side, you can the personal attacks as evidence that you’re on target. If you’re taking flak then you’re making progress. Sticks and stones may break your bones but they can't stop you from asking pointed questions.

Joe Rogan, a vehement hater of Flat Earthers has often sad that if Television Pop-Astrophysicist Neil Degreasy Tyson says something true then it is true. Joe Rogan is fine with accepting information on authority and he uses is faith in the Priest of Scientism as a cudgel to attacking Flat Earthers. As an enemy agent, a Ball-Earth Stooge, de does this to put the fear in his listeners. Nobody wants a respected icon putting them down publicly and as viciously as he does. Here’s an example of Joe being a Ball-Fanatic:

“Making Youtube videos about the Earth being Flat? That shit isn't’ research! It’s just not! It is not. Your not a scientist! You're not wearing a lab coat and you don't work for a major University! Just cause your some fuckng jackoff alone in your room obsessing about nonsense, that's not research!”

This is someone who accepts revealed mystic texts, the mumbo jumbo of the NASA mind controllers, without question. He doesn’t believe that just any individual can do any legitimate research because this requires an accepted authority. This reveals a lot about his mindset. For one thing, it’s remarkably shortsighted, for in the entirety of human history, we have never had such an amazing tool for research as the Internet. The Internet is the greatest research tool ever devised, ever created, and we have it right in front of us. You can look up anything, research any topic, read any book, examine at any published scientific information, watch lectures, and exchange information with instantaneous communication with anyone around the so called world of every level of expertise.

The sharing of information and specifically of scientific knowledge is going on at levels that are exponentially greater than what they were just five or ten years ago, so for someone like Joe Rogan to say you can't do real research reveals the same elitist mentality as the priesthood of the pre-Reformation church who said, “You peasants can’t read the bible! We gotta do something about this printing press, because now all these peasants are going to read for themselves and think for themselves! We can’t have that because they aren’t approved and they aren’t wearing fancy clerical costumes! They don't have temples and incense burners! How can we allow them to think for themselves? Invalid! Make sure we burn those bibles and kill the heretics who try to read them!”

And that what people like Joe Rogan do. Joe Rogan wants to burn you--- socially. To incinerate your character in front of everybody if you have the wrong opinion. This, essentially, is what all theocratic despots do. They punish you for contradicting the official dogmas. He is very intolerant of dissent. Imagine, just for questioning the globe and doing research and discussing it and making videos about it , you're suddenly “a basement delling” loser? I mean, that's very condescending, very elitist, and evident that he is not a free thinker at all but is in fact an orthodox globalist, a stateaoloatrist, and a die-hard believer in global warming

His fundamentalist attitude and his slavish admiration for the pear-shaped Neil Degreasy Tyson is misplaced. Tyson is presented as impartial, objective, and someone who speaks scientific truth. This is absurd, of course, because there are no people more politicised these days than pop-scientists pushing Scientism.

They’re not scientists. They’re influence agents giving the sheeple the politically correct narratives of states sponsored Scientism to a targeted demographic. Notice how these pop-scientists seem to push globalism? They advance global warming hysteria along with showing the hipsters that cool people vote socialist. And socialism is how the globalists plan expropriate the middle class as they transition us to a more “sustainable
And “greener” world order.

So my point here is that when popular individuals, people like Joe Rogan or even politicians try to attack you by calling you a global warming denier, an ignorant hillbilly, a scumbag, or whatever they call you, acknowledge it gracefully and press on. “Yeah okay, I'm a scumbag Flat Earther and I think global warming is bunk. Now tell me, why there are air bubbles in space and green screens on the International Space Station.

Take a hit, advance the argument, and proceed.
