Water Doesn’t Lie, Only the Globe Does

He leaves off where idiots like Aristotle and Pythagoras only failed miserably. This cartoon portrays a staunch flat-earther passionately debunking centuries of science with his own “experiment.” Using an orange and a bottle of water, he confidently argues that if Earth were round, water would run off, just as it does from the orange. His disdain for gravity is evident, dismissing it as a hoax perpetuated by a global conspiracy spanning centuries.

Behind him, crude diagrams illustrate his theories, including claims that satellites don’t exist, gravity is a lie, and people at the “bottom” of a spherical Earth would fall off. Adding to his beliefs, he points to the Bible, which he interprets as stating that there is a dome over the flat Earth, with stars serving as holes where heaven shines through. He dismisses satellite images as part of the grand deception.

His frustration is palpable as he wonders why others can’t grasp what he considers to be the “obvious truth.”

This satire highlights the absurdity of modern pseudoscience and the stubbornness of those who reject overwhelming evidence, presenting a humorous yet critical take on the persistence of conspiracy theories.
