Mick West | TFTRH #15: Brad – Mathematics vs. Conspiracy Theories @MickWest | Uploaded July 2019 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
Brad is an electrical engineer and an expert in mathematics. He also likes to consider that an idea might be true before rejecting it, no matter how extreme. This led him very briefly down the rabbit hole of checking to see if the earth was actually round like a ball, or might it possibly be flat. His strong grounding in mathematics very quickly put an end to that – but what about the people who don’t really understand the math? Is there hope for “flat earthers” who don’t really understand geometry?
