Screw loves and their mandatory mask #### . Another 1 bites the dust.

That's fine with me. The Chinese style censorship that's going on isnt... Let the public hear from all sides about this virus not just the one they pick.

 

Don't be daft. You want it up because you agree with it and assume it's a conspiracy.

And what would be the endgame for doing this?

 

Its gone.

Why don't they post a transcript on their own site? Or at least list who the speakers are?

 

The question wasn't "is the earth round?", it was "can you sail around it without dying AND make a profit?" If 90% of your cargo space needs to be for food and water, you won't make a profit. The whole "people thought the world was flat until Columbus proved otherwise" has been thoroughly debunked.

Revised history much?

 

In 1492, Christopher Columbus was shocked when his ship made landfall in a land Europeans had never explored. Along the way, he proved that Earth isn’t flat after all. Right?

Wrong: Despite a persistent legend, neither Columbus nor his Spanish patrons thought Earth was a finite plane instead of a round planet. And you can blame one of the United States’ greatest authors for creating a myth that still surrounds one of history’s best-known figures.

When Columbus set sail in 1492, he predicted he’d make landfall in Asia. Legend has it that he defied Spanish officials to do so, sailing west instead of East because he was certain the world was round.

According to historian Jeffrey Burton Russell, “no educated person in the history of Western Civilization from the third century B.C. onward believed that the Earth was flat.”

That was thanks to scientists, philosophers and mathematicians who, as early as around 600 B.C., made observations that Earth was round. Using calculations based on the sun’s rise and fall, shadows and other physical properties of the planet, Greek scholars like Pythagoras and Aristotle determined that the planet is actually a sphere.

During Columbus’ time, educated people carefully studied knowledge passed down by the ancient Greeks. Thus, it’s nearly impossible—and completely implausible—that rich Spaniards of the late 15th century thought Columbus would fall off the edge of the map.

mistakenly believed that the circumference of Earth was very small and that by traveling west toward what he thought was China, he’d open up new trade routes. After years of negotiation and argument over the actual length of the proposed journey, he finally convinced Ferdinand II of Spain and his wife Isabella to finance the expedition.

claimed that when the explorer told Spanish geographers the earth was not actually flat, they refused to believe him, even questioning his faith and endangering his life.

Antoine-Jean Letronne, a French author—the legend took hold. Even today, it’s a commonly held belief…even though it couldn’t be further from the truth.

Though Columbus never proved Earth was round, he did manage to upset long-held dogma in another way when he ran across a continent nobody in Europe even knew was there. (Of course, his “discovery” wasn’t new either as the Americas had been known to indigenous people for thousands of years, and Vikings since the 11th century.) He didn’t think Earth was flat, but by jumpstarting the Age of Exploration, he changed the course of human history.

The last two Love's I was at most people are not wearing masks.

The manager and the employees in the Mickey D's at the Love's are not wearing masks.

No one is wearing masks.

 

I asked him to the thread so he would know full well how selfish I am, per you, that's all.

Jump to conclusions much?
