Being a public flat-earther teaches you stoicism better than any philosophy book ever could. The amount of emotional outbursts that get pointed your way all day every day is unparalleled by any other topic. It's not even close. You very quickly learn how to control your urge to clap back with an equally-charged reaction, and just let the haters unload the same repeating clip of spoon-fed NASA talking points as the ten people before them. I've lost track of how many messages I've received from quiet lurkers who've opened their mind to #FlatEarth simply because they were shocked by how childishly-enraged people get over their spinning ball model and Star Wars childhood being put into question. It's a sure sign of a worldview that's built on emotions and flashy pictures, not factual evidence or firsthand experience.
