> Of course this depends on the projection you use!

But if you do not believe in a globe how do you understand projections?

Well, they wouldn't call it a "projection", but whatever drawing of the map they use.

  • Yeah, but how do they explain, that the same world looks different, e.g. having different distances and angles depending on the map "type"? This is kind of important for traveling, navigating or measuring the size of the property you own.

    • They’re flat earthers, they either have no explanation or a completely bogus explanation. Certainly don’t look for any semblance of reason. They just invent whatever to try and feel like they have some secret knowledge.
