Comment on What happened to the flat earthers who demonstrated that the earth is round in the netfilx documentary ?

I don't remember if it was said in the doc itself or it was a video discussing the doc (I think Hbomberguy), that said "they (flat earthers) are attempting a form of science".

To me, what that says is, if they were intellectually honest with genuine curiosity, then they would've changed their views in the face of contradictory evidence. Time and time again, they showed that they weren't willing to do that even after seeing the results of their own experiments.

As you said, they've staked too much on this notion that the Earth is flat and can't afford to give up the grift now.
