Title: Front Page Response to Behind the Curve
Post by: Tom Bishop on February 27, 2019, 09:03:45 PM

We should publish a front page response to Behind the Curve like we did with the Logan Paul situation. The work depicts a poorly researched Flat Earth Theory. Netflix is bringing numerous people into the Flat Earth discussions and they are introduced with this documentary.

I would suggest writing an announcement that the Flat Earth Society was not consulted in the science of the documentary and that the topics discussed should be further researched, with some further details around that.

We should also link to the following resources:

If you have a well-researched one, then by all means tell everyone about the research that went into it.

Not a matter for S&C.

I think a response just gives the doc more credence, when i do something that doesn't look cool or make sense I never mention it again so ppl can drop it.
