Flat Earth Theory / Re: Does history support the Flat Earth Theory?

That's an extreme leap of logic, and one you don't really explain. Why do you believe this is the only possible option?

German geologists didn't notice that the antartic wasn't as they thought? You people really think scientists are dumbasses, don't you? Because I don't see how there is really another option besides all governments hidding the true shape or all scientists in history being really stupid to not notice the true shape of the planet.

Flat Earth Theory / Does history support the Flat Earth Theory?

I understand that it is a claim among flat earthers that the true shape of the Earth is concealed by all governments. I have a problem with this and would like you to explain it.

In 1933 came to power a new Chancellor of Germany (I don't really know if I will be deleted for saying his name, but I think you know who I am referring to - also, this is a question for you, not a support of this figure or something). He believed that the world was run in the shadows by very rich and powerful people, and that it was his duty to "free Germany from this". My point is, he was "trying to unveil the truth" and to "combat the lies" of those who were supposed to be ruling the world, yet he never "unveiled the lie" of the Round Earth. If you know what New Swabia is, you shall know that he also sent an expedition to Antartica 20 years before the Antartic Treaty.

If we believe that the Earth is flat, the only way to explain why this man never addressed the shape of the earth (not even in his private correspondence, nor even when death was coming) would be to believe that he was, somehow, an agent of the world conspiracy himself. How are we to believe that the most powerful anti-globalist and conspiracy theorist in history was actually part of the conspiracy himself, an ally of the US, an ally of the URSS, an ally of all of those who seeked his death?

The other more reasonable option, of course, is that Earth isn't flat after all.
