idk dude, what does this secret society get out of confusing the mass that the earth is round and not flat? Some sort of ancient chinese joke?

i have heard of a similar joke where an older brother taught his little sister that the color orange is yellow and the color yellow is orange, which still to this day has her hesitate every time he asks her what color is this lemon?

if you ask me, we live in an age where we have discovered so much and have science to thank for explaining the nearly impossible that some folks who want to seem edgy and rebellious, question age old theories and facts just for attention seeking... whats next rethinking that the oceans aren't made of water, but millions of tiny crystals???
