Ive been looking into this subject for decades now but something I’ve noticed is that with the rise of social media and then the infamous 2017 NYT article, the naysayers who think all of this is fake and a grift or both are seemingly completely obsessed with voicing just that to those who are simply researching and now demanding answers.

What gives? For example I can’t stand flat earthers but what I don’t do is spend all day everyday on flat earth message boards and profiles yelling about how it’s fake nonsense. Why would I ever waste my own time doing that?

Idk it’s so weird to me and a phenomenon in and of itself. I really hope some saint out there is documenting all of this for future study of human behaviors because at the very least it’s very interesting if still terribly annoying and ridiculous.
