MrThriveAndSurvive (Richard Hopkins) - - caught deleting video comments that expose flat Earth as a delusion
Dear MrThriveAndSurvive (Richard Hopkins),
You are in denial of scientific evidence. It's very interesting that of all living creatures on the Earth, human beings are the only ones to deny their living reality.
You suffer from self-denial, which is the refusal to accept reality or fact, acting as if a painful event, thought or feeling did not exist. It is considered one of the most primitive of the defense mechanisms because it is characteristic of early childhood development.
Denial, and also abnegation is used for a psychological defense mechanism, when a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence.
This Denial is akin to Stephen Colbert’s “Truthiness,” in that these deniers adamantly refuse to accept verified scientific facts because they get in the way of their own rigid ideas.
You deleted the following comment left on his video...
Curved water found - cars surfacing from under water at Lake Pontchartrian while they drive the causeway See car lights at night popping up from underwater on Lake Pontchartrain...

That comment clearly shows our globe Earth curvature, as cars on Lake Pontchartrian (Louisiana USA) seem to emerge from below the water and continue traveling on the causeway. That effect is due to cars on the causeway being under the observable horizon, then getting close enough to be seen (now above the horizon) as car lights suddenly appearing in the middle of the lake as if out of nowhere.

When Richard was asked to explain this one....regarding how anti-crepuscular rays indicate that the Sun is BELOW the horizon, according to his prior crepuscular rays triangle logic, he could not so he just deleted our question.

In this video Richard complains about a "cover-up." What about his cover-up (deleting science fact comments)?

Update: February 2019
Richard has now setup a private blogging site for flat Earth folks who want to escape the rules imposed on YouTube by Google.
