Because they don't have the money for it.
Because matter attracts matter. The same law governs the movement of astronomical bodies..
Because the earth moves the air which carries the plane with it. Imagine spinning a pot of water on a wheel. At first you might see the water resist the movement of the pot around it, but after a moment it will spin along with the pot no problem, bulging slightly outward due to the centrifugal force. It you place a little boat in the water will rotate along just as if it laid on top of the wheel directly. The same holds for the earth and its atmosphere.
That's the shape it should be. Imagine standing in a hoop, picking it up, raising it to your eye level, and then rotating your head to inspect its shape. It will seem entirely flat, right? But it's really a circle. The same applies for the horizon, except instead of being raised to your eye level, it obtains the same visual angle by being really far away.

If you jump in an airplane you come down on the same spot.
Sage because not sure if serious
Plenty of people have the money, but travel is restricted. There’s something there. Sure, some boats will visit the shores to take pictures of penguins, but they never let them inland. If they went far enough they’d encounter the great barrier and the lie would be shattered beyond belief.
Wow nice vague wordings, I don’t think you understand what you’re regurgitating yourself.
Read better brainlet, airplanes were only used as a speed comparison
None of this explains why if I jump even an inch or two off the ground why I don’t end up hundreds or thousands of feet in a different direction due to the rotation of the Earth.
Lol no
If I wanted to learn about those topics I would just learn about those topics, I don't need to research the Flat Earther movement in excruciating detail. Tell me exactly why a Materialist should spend so much effort on such a thing as opposed to anything more productive whatsoever?
Climate science is real.
Socialism will win.
The Earth is flat.
Get over it.
Because you'll learn about ideology in the process.
Travel to every place on earth is restricted to some degree, but it seems easy enough to get to antarctica, and then if you want, you can run from the tour guie to go freeze to death.
Gravity.
If the earth suddenly stopped spinning, you would be thrown miles in the direction the world was spinning.
You talked about proles. Proles generally don't have the money.
The most basic model for this stuff is Newton's law of gravitation. f_g = G . (m_1 . m_2)/(d^2) f_g is the gravitational force. m_1 and m_2 are the two objects. d is the distance between them. And G is the gravitational constant. This is the most basic physics you can get.
Sorry. I can't read your broken English.
It does though. The surface of the earth is like the boundary of the pot. The water in the pot is like the atmosphere.
The air around you is rotating at exactly the same speed as the earth beneath it. When you jump in the air, you have the exact same momentum as the surface at that moment. For this reason you'll rotate along with the earth just as well as if you're standing on the surface.
To someone who's too stupid to just use their eyes and observe, it won't, no. They'll just continue to follow their dumb assumption that a hoop is round and will therefore always appear round. They're dogmatists who cannot see with their own eyes. Similarly you could imagine someone refusing to see an optical illusion because they're simply too autistic to acknowledge perceiving something they "know" to be incorrect. It's a sign of undialectical thinking of the highest degree, inability the appreciate how a moment that's "false" to higher Understanding nevertheless is "true" in as far as it is part of the unfolding of Reason.
To help you understand my explanation a bit better, here's some more mathematical rigor: Your field of view forms a sphere. Light enters into your from all kinds of angles, and it is this angle of entry that gets registered and passes into your brain as a visual image.
Now, a known fact about spherical geometry is that a flat line is a circle. To be more precise, it is one that passes through two opposite points on that sphere.
Thus, by asserting that the horizon is "flat", you have simultaneously asserted that it is a circle. This is mathematical law. Disputing this means disputing basic mathematical deduction.

> f_g = G . (m_1 . m_2)/(d^2). f_g is the gravitational force.
placed a dot in between the formula and the next sentence, to avoid confusion.
their masses, obviously
please don't use this argument if you want FE to be taken seriously - I mean you can't really believe it has merit, can you?
