Flat Earth
I’m still not truly convinced anyone actually believe this. But, as other people are increasingly eager to prove them wrong, it could possibly also be a scheme to get free space trips.

Makes sense: the corners must have broken off at early stages of the planet’s life.
Baby steps, he is at least a bit closer to the truth… I Also would be on board for the free trips to space.
It bothers me that some people say that they believe the Earth is round. I mean, everyone believes that the Earth is round, even (most) flat-Earthers! What they mean to say is that they believe that the Earth is spherical.
Spherical, like a ball. “Round” can still mean flat and round, like a pizza.
(If you’re going to argue science, at least use unambiguous terminology.)
“Spherical” has three times as many syllables as “round”. You have to go easy on flat earthers…
Some people will never be convinced despite how much evidence you will show them.
Even if you take them into orbit on a rocket ship, they will probably think they are on some kind of movie set, or to be more current; in some kind of virtual reality.
They may demand that they should be allowed to leave the rocket in order to see for themselves, without any window or screen between them and the sight of the Earth.
Ehm, perhaps we should actually let them leave the ship.
