  The moon is a transparent light source.

  You might be asking yourself how does a transparent object generate it’s own light? Well let me explain: trust me bro.

    Not sure if you were aware of the meme, but I was making a portal reference, as in “the cake is a lie.” The image looks the same as the portals in the video game “portal.” The original context of “The cake is a lie” was to convey the message that a reward is being used to motivate Chell, the player character of Portal, without any intent of delivering. It was my attempt at making fun of flat earthers. I do believe the earth is round, that we orbit the sun, that the moon orbits earth, and that the moon landing was real.

      Oooo Kay.

      Not sure why you found it necessary to explain the joke.

      But like you I am also making fun of flat earthers.

        I guess I misinterpreted the intent of your comment, like you might have thought I was a flat earther. My bad.

  Can’t land on a lie.

  I wonder are there flat earthers who are also simultaneously NOT moon landing deniers? Or is that like a prerequisite.

      Yeah I played Portal.

      Was just trying to add something to the conversation.

      Also I didn’t downvote you. Not sure why whoever did that.

        People are entitled to their fact based opinions. Maybe it just didn’t add much to the conversation. Life is amazing when you give negative fucks like I do.

    When the moon is a lie and the flat earthers cry, that’s amore.

    When the sun really shines, flat earthers ask why, that’s amore.

    They are ding, ding-a-ling-a-lings

    ding-a-ling-a-lings and you’ll sing, “stupid fella”

    Brains are dead, flippy-flippy-fled, flippy-flippy-fled
