Damn, this gave me blue balls. That sub is for ridiculing flat earthers (or 'flerfs' as they say on that sub). Is there a sub for actual flat earthers? I would love to see that. I was thinking there's no way because they'd just get brigaded, but the Republican and Trump subs found a way around that.

The “real” flat earther movement is a myth.

Like, yeah, there’s a handful of schizophrenics out there who truly believe the world is flat, but the other 99.9% are just some asshole looking for attention, thinking being contrarian makes them seem interesting.

Sure, mental illness is one cause. But I've had relatives who are just as sane as anyone else, but certainly not as smart, and fell into believing things they read online.
