Flat Earth Community / Student Researching this Discourse Community

Hello, I'm a college freshmen from USA, who is researching the Flat Earth Society as a discourse community for my English writing class. I'm not necessarily interested into Flat Earth theory, or to debate or argue, but instead would like to interview anyone on here willing to private message me and ask a few questions who have been a member of the community for a while. I would like to learn the  lingo, terminology, knowledge, and structure of the discourse community and why you believe the things you believe. Like I said earlier, I'm not here to judge, insult, debate, or argue the theory, or the science, but just want to investigate this unique discourse community. If you would be interested in a personal private and civil conversation I would appreciate it. Thank you.
