I think the anti-science here is an indicator of a broader malaise. So even with political ideology, if you divert.. it doesn't go down well with the echo chamberThings are bad when the chap only has his own accounts (AN2/Haven) to converse with.
What's that?
Honestly? Thinking that I'm @Haven is mega retarded, i.e. you. I would certainly at least hope that other people here don't think that (besides me and Haven)
I do? Why don't (some) people "fall out" with me?
None of those links would have claimed that a solar eclipse proves space is curved because that's nonsense. The bending of light around a massive object proved space is curved
Do you know why the flat-earthers think that a solar eclipse bends spacetime?
I'd be interested to get another person's opinion on it
lol I suppose "Why" could have had several different meanings there
A better question for you.
Maybe flat-earthers live in a two-dimensional universe ? !
You are a lying weasel. I never said I think a solar eclipse bends spacetime. The argument was about the claim that the solar eclipse prove space bends, not that the solar eclipse itself bends space. So you lied and straw-manned me knowing full well that's not what I said. I provided a bunch of links that claim the solar eclipse proved space bends. That claim was also made in the video that YOU linked earlier (23:34).Do you know why the flat-earthers think that a solar eclipse bends spacetime?

A solar eclipse is when the Moon passes directly between the Sun and Earth blocking the Sun's light in some places. Of course it doesn't prove that space is curved. That was proved by observing the light from distant stars bending around the Sun. How many times do you have be told the same thing

Baha! Notice where Hermit put the timestamp on the video, a man talking mid sentence saying - That only occurs during a total solar eclipse, rewind a bit to see what the that is..
