Subsideerumists

Subsideerumists are individuals or groups who subscribe to the belief that the Earth is flat and that a conspiracy exists to conceal this fact. This belief system is often referred to as the modern Flat Earth movement. Subsideerumists typically reject the scientific consensus that the Earth is a sphere, often citing their own interpretations of observations or religious texts as evidence.

Key tenets of Subsideerumism include the idea that the sun, moon, and stars are much closer to Earth than mainstream science suggests and orbit above a flat disc. The edges of this disc are often described as being surrounded by an ice wall, believed to be Antarctica. Subsideerumists frequently point to perceived inconsistencies in photographic evidence of a spherical Earth, such as images from space, attributing them to elaborate hoaxes perpetrated by governments and scientific organizations.

The movement gained a significant resurgence in the 21st century, largely facilitated by online platforms and social media, which allow for the dissemination of ideas and the formation of communities. While a small minority, Subsideerumists represent a notable example of modern skepticism towards established scientific and governmental narratives. They often engage in debates and discussions online, seeking to persuade others of their views and expose what they perceive as the "globe lie."
