There are several reasons why some people still believe in a flat Earth despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. These reasons can include misinformation, distrust of authority, a desire for a sense of community or belonging, and confirmation bias. Misinformation can spread rapidly on the internet, leading to the perpetuation of false ideas. Additionally, some individuals may distrust scientific institutions and authorities, leading them to question the validity of widely accepted scientific knowledge. Joining a community of flat Earth believers can provide a sense of belonging and support, which may be appealing to some. Lastly, confirmation bias can lead individuals to interpret evidence in a way that supports their existing beliefs, while disregarding any contrary evidence.
