I just messaged him offering to come on and explain a lot of the stuff he's struggling with. If you want me on, leave some youtube comments telling him to invite me (I'm no longer allowed on there).

This is a good explanation for the moon rotating in perfect synchronicity with its Earth orbit:

Quote:

The rotation of the Moon is a strange situation. It takes the same amount of time for the Moon to complete a full orbit around the Earth as it takes for it to complete one rotation on its axis. In other words, the Moon rotation time is 27.3 days, just the same as its orbital time: 27.3 days.

What this means to us here on Earth is that the Moon always presents the same face to the Earth. We only see one side of the Moon, and not the other. And if you could stand on the surface of the Moon, the Earth would appear to just hang in the sky, not moving anywhere.

Astronomers say that the Moon is tidally locked to the Earth. At some point in the past, it did have a different rotation rate from its orbital period. But slight differences in the shape of the Moon caused the Moon to experience different amounts of gravity depending on its position. These differences acted as a brake, slowing the Moon rotation speed down until it matched its orbital period. There are other tidally locked moons in the Solar System. Pluto and its moon Charon are tidally locked to each other, so they always present the same face to one another.

Davis I don't remember you posting much on the Flat Earth thread, where Mercenary was dabbling into FE skepticism. Like maybe 90%-95% of Americans, Owen doesn't have a strong STEM foundation and is more vulnerable to the propaganda. Flat Earth is an elaborate psyop that was actively weaponized by the deep state under the leadership of Cass Sunstein, who was Obama's information czar (official title was head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs).

The goal of this cognitive infiltration process is to separate the normies from the truthers by smearing their brand with the poison pill of Flat Earth. All of a sudden, there was a lot of very slick content being produced and pushed up in the online algorithms by people who have put countless hours into producing videos and concocting theories pushing a notion that any reasonable skeptic enquirer could debunk with a few minutes of research.

Flat Earthers ensnare people by exploiting the huge gap between the 3D world we perceive as small beings on the surface of the earth and the planetary/space physics on a macroscopic scale, which are often counterintuitive. For instance we can't feel or perceive the rotation of the earth, or the enormous force of the atmospheric pressure acting upon us at all time, which makes the notion that we are moving at a tangential speed of 500mph in relation to the center of the earth hard to conceive from a sensory level.

For Owen, I would keep things simple and propose he asks one of his Air Force buddies who might have flown a jet fighter above 50,000', where the earth curvature becomes clearly visible, that would settle the whole issue. Another approach is to look at travel times between points on the southern hemisphere, like say Buenos Aires/Santiago to Sydney.


Owen's strength is that he is very good at deciphering propaganda and lies, having been trained into the subtle arts of rhetoric and the manipulation of mindscapes by his father, who was an academic specialist and a practitioner of the art of "wizardry" and magick/persuasion. To this training, you add his natural talent as a comedian, which involves an innate skill of high perceptiveness and manipulation of the public.

That background, in combination with a solid traditional upbringing and a fearless predisposition make him what he is now, a great fighter for truth and righteousness, warts and all.
