A Convicted Murderer Just Sent Me A Link To A Secret Recording, And What’s In The Video Is Truly Horrifying

They also militarized the space program and, in 1959, entered into a treaty with 10 other countries that basically blocked all public and commercial access to Antarctica. That treaty still stands to this day and currently bears the signatures of over 50 countries.

Now, I can hear you asking, “Why Antarctica?”

Because, dear naïve reader, that is where the edge is.

To which you would more than likely respond, “But if the world was flat, couldn’t we still get to any other part of the edge that wasn’t located directly behind a giant blocked-off wall of ice?”

No, you’re picturing the wrong kind of flat in your head…

“What about gravity?!”

Oh, that’s real but instead of a ball going in a circle, we’re actually on a flat plane moving straight up.

“For Christ’s sake, what about like Magellan’s crew and literally every person who has circumnavigated the globe since then?”

They were all going in a circle but it wasn’t around a globe. It was on a flat plane with all of the known land-masses clustered around the center. See, the entire outer edge is ice. The North Pole, the South Pole. It’s all one big pole that encircles the known world.

“Then why wouldn’t they make the North Pole off-limits too?”

Well, the North Pole doesn’t really exist if you were paying attention and Russia had already claimed ownership of it by then and besides THAT’S NOT THE POINT OF THE STORY! Okay?! Now, can we chill on the interrogation tactics? I’m sort of trying to do a thing here.
