Professor Dave Humiliates Flat Earther David Weiss (DITRH Debunked Live)

For months now, hordes of idiots have been lurking in my comments sections, aggressively insisting that I need to debate David Weiss, because he's some kind of flat earth messiah who is undebunkable, and I should cower in the face of his might. Of course I ignored them because he is a two-bit charlatan and who cares what idiots say, but then a channel with almost 700k subscribers asked if I would debate Weiss on his channel, and I figured it might be a good way to pick up a few subscribers, and also humiliate a flat earth icon irreparably in the process. And folks, that's exactly what happened. From the moment he opened his mouth to the moment we left the stream, I took every single word he said and demonstrated in real time how David Weiss is a science illiterate moron that doesn't understand basic concepts learned in elementary school, just like every other pointless flat earth grifter. Anyone who watches this exchange and still refers to him as a credible source of information is in complete denial of reality and hopelessly unreachable. Of course that describes most flat earthers, so I'll see you dummies in the comments section complaining about what a meany mean-pants I am instead of admitting to yourself that you are completely unable to address a single thing I said in this absolutely airtight, relentless destruction of a toxic influence on society. Toodles!

  • Hey you! Yes you there, the thousandth person coming down here in a hissy fit to tell me how mean and nasty and unprofessional I was to that poor, poor, ignorant flat earther. Stop. You have zero perspective on this situation. Weiss is a con man who lies for a living. He knows he's wrong, he just spews a script of lies to make money on the internet. Politeness is a window to gish gallop and spread more lies, and you can clearly see how angry he got when I pinned him on every lie in his script, pressing him to respond to things he knew he couldn't respond to. He does not deserve respect. He does not deserve decency. He deserves annihilation. He deserves public humiliation. His remaining followers are impervious to facts and logic, so the only thing that works is a demonstration of what a sniveling, lying, pathetic little toddler he is. Also, no, he was not polite. The first words out of his mouth were to slander me regarding the content on my channel, and all he did was call me a "dick" every time I proved him wrong. He's a douchebag. And guess what? Even if he wasn't a con man he still should be treated this way, because politeness toward this "issue" would give the illusion of two "opinions" with equal footing. There aren't. The earth is objectively a sphere, as we've known for thousands of years, and anyone who says otherwise is actively calling all of science a lie, and literally all scientists liars. That's insanely offensive. This is how you deal with flat earth con men. Get on board or get out of the way. Got it?

    If the Earth was really flat, Flat Earthers would think it was a globe.
  • This guys ability to handle being called stupid and a moron every 3 minutes is astounding

    Is the shaun guy secretely the Joker? He maintained that unsettling grin for 1 hour straight.

    Shaun looks like he’s very pleased that we’re distracted with flat earth, instead of focusing on lizard people wearing human skinsuits.

    Can’t believe a grown ass adult is asking “where does the sun go at night” level questions and then rejecting the answer

    I’m a retired Earth/Space Science teacher. The “they taught flat Earth in the 20s and 30s” makes me crazy. Because of my interests, I collect old science text books. I have texts from the 40s and 60s that teach, and show a spherical Earth. Oh….that’s 1840s and 1860s. So…….
  • I’m a retired professor of medieval lit and history, and the person claiming that people in the Middle Ages believed the earth is flat — NO. There are references to the earth as a globe everywhere including The Canterbury Tales and medieval manuscript illustration, which I have seen... Also, the Greeks had already proven the earth is a sphere centuries earlier. The nonsense about the medievals believing in a flat earth was never a “thing” until the 18th and 19th centuries as part of Protestant backlash against Catholicism — they made up nonsense to argue that medieval Catholics were stupid. Sadly there seem to be a few stragglers living in 2024 are now taking all of this seriously. Sad.

    It's hard to win a debate with an intelligent person. It's impossible to win a debate with a dumb person.
  • @oakkens
    "if the earth is round why doesn't this thing happen" "it does happen" "nuh uh!" -this entire debate
  • I'm about 35 minutes into this conversation and I am really glad that the Earth isn't flat because I would have rolled off the edge of it laughing by now
  • @Tofflemire5
    10 years ago, I thought flat-earthers were an intentional joke. A decade later I think there are actual people who believe this crap.
  • @floydheth1072
    I laughed so loud when dave asked him "do you want to adress this thing or do you want to move on to something else" and homie straight face just says "I want to move on to something else"

    Serious question. If the photos of the Earth are photoshopped, when was this done? According to FE we didn’t go to the Moon because we didn’t have the technology, but according to them we had amazing CGI and photoshop to make fake photos of the Earth. Which is it? Thanks.
