Line 19 ⟶ 21:
However, flat earth was known to all the ancient civilizations, and it was taught in schools all the way to the 20th century. Surprisingly, earth's supposed curve has never been observed or scientifically measured.
 
It wasn't until about 14 century the [[Agencies/Jesuits|Jesuits]] infiltrated the Church, shortly after, the globe earth was being adopted by the Catholic church, and by the beginning of the 20th century it was being forced into schools, by means of "bullying" schools into teaching all points of view. (See an example of this in the Sep 06 1874 Newspaper clip below) <ref name=Sep061874Newspaper></ref>
 
It seemed like teaching the globe was considered taboo not long ago, in the year 1900, a man was almost thrown in to jail for teaching the round earth theory. (See the example in the Apr 21, 1900 Newspaper clip below)
Line 33 ⟶ 35:
Eventually both points of view were slowly exchanged with one point of view - the globe model. And teaching the FE model was eventually banned. I guess bullying worked well. (See YouTube cracking down Newspaper clip below)
 
Modernly big tech actively "shadow-bans" FE content. YouTube hides videos that discuss FE in a scientific way, they promote videos that talk against FE. <ref name=CongressCensorship></ref> Search engines now will show you "Fact Checkers" for any search query for FE. (See Keeping us "safe" from scientific knowledge web search below)
 
It tells you something when the Government actively plays both sides: They '''illegally''' censor information and question private businesses on what they're going to do about allowing free speech (Treason by breach of the 1st amendment). Plus they make fake flat-earth societies to discourage people from learning the truth.
