Elon Musk Destroys The ‘Flat Earth Society’ With A Single Question, And Their Reply Is The Pinnacle Of Irony
Elon Musk is known for founding automaker Tesla and Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX), but recently he has set up the Flat Earth Society for such a burn, it could be his greatest achievement yet.
The flat earth believers are either the biggest conspiracy theory, making total fun of everyone else or they are slightly cuckoo in seriously debating the shape of the earth. The Flat-Earthers supposedly believe Earth is a flat disc and everything that suggests otherwise is a conspiracy, created by NASA and other government agencies. On Tuesday, the billionaire investor, engineer, and inventor Elon Musk asked them a somewhat philosophical question on Twitter, wondering why there isn’t a Flat Mars Society. To his and everybody else’s surprise (and amusement), the official Twitter account of the Flat Earth Society responded. Scroll down to read the hilarious exchange between Musk and the flat earth conspiracy believers!

The founder of Tesla and SpaceX is working hard to make a human colony on Mars a reality, so he was interested in what the Flat-Earthers think of the Red Planet
To his and everybody else’s surprise (and amusement), the official Twitter account of the Flat Earth Society responded
Their answer, however, seems to contrast with all of their beliefs and it sparked a hilarious debate
Elon was probably as confused as the Internet
If the earth was flat, cats would have pushed everything over the edge by now.
I agree. I think the whole flat earth thing is a giant joke.

Load More Replies...The fact that there even IS a flat Earth society is....... Disheartening.
So if Mars has been observed to be a sphere, and we have observed the Sun and other planets in our solar system to all be spheres, why is Earth the only flat major object? 🤔🤓😁
I don't know a lot about flat-earthers (and want to keep it that way), but apparently they believe the earth is the center of the solar system, and everything else, including the sun, revolves around us. I have no words for how insane that theory is.
Load More Replies...I feel like flat earthers is the whole Scientology gimmick, ran by a guy who said "I bet I can...", who did and people fell for it like a Nigerian investment call.
That is beautiful! It's a "hold my beer" gimmick.
Load More Replies...I honestly thought the flat earth society was a form of science humor. I didn't realize people actually believed that.
Just search YouTube for flat earth and other conspiracy videos. It's scary people can believe things despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. One example, you can break up "chemtrails" with a handheld spray of vinegar
Load More Replies...Since Elon got the conversation started, why don't they (the Flat Earth Society) ask to attach a camera of their choosing on a rocket that gets blasted to space and watch the unedited footage once it comes back down to earth?
Any idea how expensive it is to add half a pound to your pay load when shooting a rocket into space? Here is a hint.. a lot!
