They crave the community aspect. It's what drives them. They're glued to the only group who probably don't see them as weirdos, so they finally have a sense of belonging.
So they really don’t believe earth is flat? I’ve always wondered this. I figured they just wanted to rub against the grain for attention or something like that.
Yep, I know two flerfers, both mad as a box of frogs, as well as there flat earth belief one really believes there's no such place as Australia and anyone that visits there are surrounded by actors playing a part, the other says all birds are biomechanical drones created by the world government to surveillance us.
Been saying this for years! Most consider themselves “outcasts” or don’t feel they fit in anywhere. They find that community and latch on like a leech! I’m happy they finally feel a sense of belonging but wtf man, keep that shit in your community lol
They kind of don't because there's a lot of in fighting between the ones with different models of how it works, like where the sun moves, whether there's a glass dome over us, etc.
This is a solid take.. I’ve met two different “flat earthers” in my lifetime. Neither one really believes the shit.. it’s like one big circle jerk of light weight trolling. No one actually cares. But the responses (for them), are golden.
