Flat Earther's, Say Hello to Your New Leader!

in flatearth •  7 years ago  (edited)

This flat earth thing won't die. What many thought was just a rediculous internet meme has actually grown legs.

Could everything we've been told about our planet actually be a lie? Maybe we don't live on a spinning globe?

Perhaps flatearthers are right, that the earth is flat and the evil powers in control have been spoon feeding us lies this whole time about the shape of our planet! For what reason I'm not sure?.. but we're not here to argue that today.

Today we're here to bow down to one man..

Meet 61 year old California resident, and limo driver, Mike Hughes. New leader of the Flat Earth Campaign.

He's been studying flat earth 'science' for 4 months and he's dead set to prove the world we live on is flat. Once and for all shutting up NASA, Elon Musk and virtually every scientist that's ever lived!

He's built himself a rocket, he painted it with rustoleum and plans to launch himself into space from inside of a modified mobile home.

Sure, most of his homemade rockets have exploded and failed miserably in the past, but he's pretty sure this time he's got it all figured out..

Mike may have only raised $350 from his $20,000 Kickstarter project, but he found the funds he needed from a group of flat earthers and their moms.

With money issues aside, he's almost ready for testing. If these Mojave desert tests go well he plans to strap himself into his handmade rocket and blast off into orbit.

The mission is simple..to take pictures of the flat earth, hopefully return, and finally shut everyone up!

What could go wrong? I'll keep you updated..

Thanks for reading,

@goldenarms

Four months of study? We should totally listen to him. Plus he has a rocket!

Just look at #steemlords... always having to go friggin East. Why??? Because going West would send you over the edge man! That's why! Lord BMJ knows this first-hand!

Lmfao, ought to be a good show 😆

Yeah I actually admire him. He's got balls and wants to find the answers himself 😁

Not sure I'd call it balls, closer to 'nuts' lol

Well played 👊😎

At least his not siting down in-front of a TV and getting bored :-)

O bah ha ha ha -- apparently Shaq is a flat earther too, lol. He says: i drive from Florida to California all the time and that shit is flat!

Goog it...

Hilarious post GA!

Yeah I heard that before. I also saw him take the one chip challenge and run off the studio set because it was too hot 😊

Good times with Giants! Barkley's no fool lol

Luckily he didn't said:
I was cruising the oceans and seas and non of them had a mountain :-)

LOLZ me and wifey watched his dumb ass earlier.
It's like the guy doesn't believe in gravity either.

Well thanks for still tuning into my post for more! 😁

you forgot to incorporate the connection between flat earthers and disc world fanatics, who basically share a similar hypothesis.

I probably forgot alot of important details. I just laughed so hard when I read an article on Live Science that said he's only believed in the flat earth theory for 4 months 😂 Perfect excuse to shoot himself into space with his homemade rocket ship 🚀 and for me to make a wacky post

When asked what's under the turtle the classic response is: oh silly dear! It's turtles all the way down

actually, it's elephants and then the turtle

Who wakes one morning and suddenly decides the earth is flat? Nobody. Research flat earth. @ironshield

Research? I can't believe all that wacko stuff I've already read from nutballs trying to say the world is flat BUT..I'm building my own rocket, that's right, @goldenarms is headed to space himself baby! 🙌

To the moon! @ironshield

Why not just put a camera on a balloon? Kids are doing that for science projects now...

Also rockets are fun lol

Amen to that! Hahaha

Because that'd be too easy to prove the curvature of the earths surface. We need to create doubt for the 0.027% of the population that want to believe in a flat earth for whatever reason

Indeed, what could possibly go wrong? 50 hours and 4 months of watching YouTube videos he's got it all figured out.

LOL it takes all types I guess

Factoid: His friends call him "Mad Mike"

Why am I not surprised

Flat earthers give me a headache. This poor guy is on a suicide mission 😥

Also loving the Canada upgoats 🙌🏼

LOL, thanks, I needed a laugh! :D

Awaiting the results of his rocket launch ;)

#rocketsandshit LMAO!!!

I'm trending 😁 Thanks for stopping by @underground!

I don't know (not sure) if US officials will let him launch a rocket...
it may be dangerous for other people around the launch area

LOL!!! Welcome to Steemit, Mr KillJoy :p

upvote for you, anyway! :D

Hope he doesn't return. Woops

Oh no u didn't? Lol

May his rocket land safely, will be waiting.

You know I never heard about his leading plans or how that takes place? Maybe he ejects and parachutes to safety idk? I may have to update this lol After his funeral 😛

You might need to🤣😂

Is that... Macgyver?

Kinda looks like him at an advanced age 😊

You write: "New leader of the Flat Earth Campaign."
What is "the Flat Earth Campaign" you speak of, and how does it follow that this guy is its "new leader"?

ROFL. Oh, my gosh! I think he misplaced a screw or two when he was building his rocket. A 4 month graduate of the nut bar school for dumb nuts. It will get him far. I see stars in his future. lol

I'll let you know when my husband has irrefutable evidence. He's decided that one day he's going to go floating off in a lawn chair attached to balloons.

Sounds like a great plan! Where do you come up with this stuff...lol.

You Crack me up Goldie... Lol 😁 this was hilarious. I would love to se him do that trip
probably a one way trip😉

I can't wait for his little 'experiment'. If I had money to waste I would tune into his pay per view stream of the launch. I actually feel sorry for these people.. their 'research' is based on incredibly simplistic and poor reasoning. They're up there with the people who think the moon is hoax.

Haha, this reminds me of that one movie with what's his name. Dated Angelina Jolie. O yeah Billy Bob Thorton, but can't think of the name of the movie.

It's sad. I'm not sure who's using who. "Mad" Mike using the Flatearthers to break his records or are the Flatearthers using him to ... um... to prove nothing - oh and get him killed at the same time.
