I mean yeah, for a more formal assignment like the actual paper I'm writing, I will bit be so direct and address more evidence that suggests the earth is round or whatever. It's just that when he told us to write our reactions, I didn't feel like that meant I should be providing a bunch if evidence as to why the earth isn't flat.
Joe Rogan is great and he does represent both sides. Representing both sides is usually a good thing to do, but sorry, but with flat earthers. They are too fucking dumb to get that attention.
You're doing it again. That's YOUR opinion. You're sounding like one of those lefty people that dont listen to facts and just say something like "Trump supporters are dumb" and then I could go on and tell them how Trumps policies could actually help people, and why he was the better candidate, and why smart people voted for him, I could make good points and then when they respond they say something like "I cant believe anyone would vote for him and his supporters are dumb". Its like talking to a brick wall. And it's really a bad problem now days especially with young people.
Its like they get mad because someone is challenging their opinions.
The earth being round is not an opinion. That's the disconnect here. Everything you said is true and I agree with as it applies to opinions.
If the shape of the earth can be an opinion, what else can? If something is that objective you can't get pissed at people for not stating it as just their opinion.
Is my professor being ridiculous?

Oh. Well I didn't swear in my summary, and he literally told is to share our reaction which to me means to share my opinion.
