You wouldn’t persuade a flat-earth-believer by any of the following methods:
• criminalising them with ‘thought-crime’ censorship laws;
• smearing them in all avenues of society with ad hominem epithets and accusations;
• fire-bombing their homes in order to intimidate them and destroy evidence supporting their viewpoint (as was done to Ernst Zündel);
• threatening to kill them, their spouses and their infant daughters especially if they are a highly-qualified academic who has produced a prize-winning thesis on flat-earth research (as was done to Prof Joel Hayward);
• attacking a university for awarding a PHd to students researching the topic (as was done to the universities of students Hayward and Roques);
• attacking, falsely smearing and forcing into early retirement indentured professors for encouraging open debate on the topic (as was recently done to Prof. Anthony Hall);
• for decades annually making inaccurate but emotionally manipulative film-dramatisations that misinform the people with what even intimidated academia agree are false depictions
• preventing easy access on the internet to any convincing, well-informed, reasonable, well-presented arguments for their understanding;
• misrepresenting the flat-earth position using intentionally misleading strawman misrepresentations (as CJ has recently been repeatedly doing);
• making TV ‘documentaries’ that repeat false info and consist of biased interviews with unqualified eccentrics rather than interviewing highly-qualified published authors (as the jewish-controlled BBC recently did using ignorant, biased and racist* jewish-comedian David Baddiel).
etc., etc.
The above are NOT a convincing strategy for persuading anyone that their understanding is incorrect. On the contrary, such behaviour confirms the understanding that there IS
NO LOGICAL, REASONABLE, EVIDENCE-BASED ARGUMENT against their understanding and therefore such draconian, unethical methods must be used instead.
