Redirection Issues

Flat Earthers often use the term global elite as their ultimate stance to escape from the discussion when they are cornered to avoid looking embarrassing.

When unable to prove a flat Earth model, some flat-earth followers will say that the flat Earth model is still under study, and natural when imperfect. "But," there is certainly a continuation, "the most important is how we fight the global elite and save the world from a handful of bad guys."

The real fact is that this global elite is a mere article.

The global elite is merely an ad-hoc hypothesis created to patch so many inconsistencies on flat Earth models. The global elite exists only because it is not possible to explain flat Earth theory without slandering others in a conspiracy.

Let us analyze an ad-hoc hypothesis chain below:

1. Earth is flat.
2. Antarctica is the edge of the Earth, not the continent, but is the giant ice wall that surrounds the Earth.
3. We can not go there to make sure, there is a global elite banning us.

Without a conspiracy at 3, the number 2 will still be an open hypothesis, and will only be known to the truth once we send the investigating team there. But they do not want us to know the truth! So, they just specify that it's impossible to go there by creating conspiracy theories at 3. By doing so, they do not give anyone a chance to prove number 2. They assume only 2 true because there will never be any evidence to the contrary. If anyone ever gets to the South Pole, it will be accused of lying, or is part of a conspiracy. In this way, 1 cannot be proved untrue (not falsifiable) due to the conspiracy theories at 3, which is also not falsifiable.

The only way to prove the existence of a global elite is to go back to the next step and prove the true form of Earth. The earth is round, then there can be no global elite hiding the 'fact' that the Earth is flat.
