Flat Earth Conspiracy Love Song
« on: June 16, 2024, 04:28:11 PM »


FES was mentioned in this video description: "What do you get when a Flat Earth Society member and a Jet Propulsion Physicist fall in love? A MUSICAL, of course! Watch all the way through to see if these star crossed lovers can find common ground and put aside their massive differences."

Just a correction to your above statement: FES (Flat Earth Society) was not mentioned in the video. It wasn't about a Flat Earth Society member and a Jet Propulsion Physicist falling in love. What was mentioned and what it's about is a Flat Earther with a Conspiracy type paranoid mindset and a Jet Propulsion Physicist falling in love.

The video creator Garbage Musicals said it was a Flat Earth Society member. Do you have any evidence that the creator of the video is lying about who they intended the characters to be?

That's great. But, I'm only pointing out that the video doesn't say anything or specifically call out the FES. It only mentions and suggests a Flat Earther with Conspiracy theory type beliefs and a Jet Propulsion Physicist falling in love.

I think that you were kind of hoping that it would be kind of neat if the FES was specifically called out in the video as a nod to FES. I'm just pointing out that it was not.

The title of the video also doesn't say "FES."

Well, I'm not sure why you think the author of the video is lying about who the character is intended to be. The main character is also wearing a (unofficial) Flat Earth Society shirt that is fairly well known among the Flat Earth shirts.

It's the Flat Earth Society shirt featured on "Flat Earth: To The Edge and Back"

Tom -- the above is a very ironic post coming from you. Need I remind you of what the FES says about Photographic Evidence?

You don't, but apparently I do need to remind you that this sort of shitposting is not acceptable in the upper.
