There was facepalming galore at this flat-earther’s bizarre geography lesson

Holly Cook Watson shared a screengrab of this post by a homeschooling flat-earther

And this is what they’d made.

She added this Terry Pratchett-themed correction.

“Pillars of the Earth?????

These poor kids.”

There was a lot of facepalming and head-shaking in the comments.

This is why we can’t have nice things😢

Well, if she’s homeschooling, she won’t show up at school board meetings to scream about banning books.

The screenshots were shared on Reddit by u/jhrogroff, where Redditors were just as scornful – and a little sceptical.

Calling flat earthers stupid is an insult to stupidity.

That’s awful parenting. Thats not homeschooling, that’s just straight not taking care of your kids or educating them at all.

But the funniest exchange of the thread was this –

I like how south america has an obvious curved perspective from whatever picture they traced.

Ahhh that’s what it is. Thought maybe it was flat-Earthers assuming the snapchat logo was “god”.
