Probably the thing I miss most about reddit is being able to easily find and laugh at these kinds of exchanges.
Too much sanity on lemmy... I miss the conspiracy subs.

Too much sanity
Uhh I don't know what subs you've been visiting, but there's just as many stupid people on here as well.
I'm pretty sure once you reach a certain threshold of individuals, a minimum percentage will always be this dumb. I'm not sure about the exact numbers, but the phenomenon seems real
Go to most of the political subs on lemmy and you'll find plenty of brain dead takes
The !flatearth@lemmy.ml community has some unironic (I think) posts in there if you scroll a few posts down.

One of my kids calls water fountains water mountains.. I assume from just mishearing the word. The first time he said it I went to correct him and then I'm like it does look like a water mountain so fuck it we'll go with that. Now the whole family only refers to them us water mountains.
And oddly there is another misheard word another of my kids used that we've all adopted, this kid said his tshirt was skin side out instead of inside out. Again I went to correct him and thought no he is right too, so now clothes are skin side out or skin side in.
I also have a few of these. My favourite daughter when she was a toddler she used to call road trains "Big DIE!".
My favourite daughter
Busted
Oops, I really messed up that sentence. Well, she is my favourite anyway 😁
My family has one of those. Our oldest would say hanitizer instead of hand sanitizer. We started correcting him but eventually realized that it's more efficient and everyone knows what he's talking about. I actually use it outside the family too. No issues, only chuckles when I explain the story.
Hah, skin side out is good !!

You mean a wave?
They're talking about the horizon.
have you people never seen an ocean? when you see ships go far enough out you see them disappear behind the curvature of the earth, you'll see masts of sailboats sticking up and the like.

When a ship gets far away and you only see the top half, it's behind a flat Earth water mountain.
What's he not getting?
No silly waves are on land. Have you ever heard of earth's largest wave? Wave Everest. A lot of people climb it every year. Sometimes they call them land waves to distinguish them further from water mountains.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
Just run to the edge then.
They'd just hit the ice wall, idiot. And if they made it through that they would hit the ocean of the second flat world beyond our own. If they got through that they would hit either the scorched wastes, the frozen wastes, the abyssal ocean, or the walls of asgard..
Seriously, do you even do your own research?
You mean if he ever gets past security.
America doesn't have the resources to watch effectively the border with Mexico, but they can guard the full earth "circumference"... AAAAND keep everyone quiet about it.

These people are so dumb, they aren’t “water mountains”, they are Lands with the subtypes Island and Mountain, meaning they can tap for blue or red mana.
the existence of water mountains implies the existence of forest, fire, shadow and spirit mountains
aren't the four elements water, fire, earth and air?
Actually they are mountain, island, forest, plains, and swamp

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A SHIP DISAPPEAR ?
WATER MOUNTAINS
....waves?
I think it's their counter-argument to:
"If earth is really flat, why do ships disappear behind the oceans horizon?"
"Water mountains"
Earth curvature
Ok i'm convinced
Water mountains sound so fun that I'll choose to believe in them. Also ball eath but in combination with water mountains
We do have water volcanoes at least. Someone just named them geysers. Tho I'm fairly sure that vulcanic activity disproves flat earth.

This is an image of power towers gradually getting shorter and shorter because they have to squeeze into the water tunnel that runs through the water mountain.
