The round earth viewpoint is very boring to discuss. It is round, obviously, but anything fun about that feels like math to talk about. A myth about a flat earth feels mystical and like you’re in a secret group. There’s an appeal in believing something that skeptics have a hard time understanding. I know, I’ve been both in my life, and the struggle is real. (Never a flat earther, though)
same with vaccines. saying they just work, isn’t exciting.
claiming they cause autism and are destroying society and we’re better off without them, makes you feel special and smart. your kids won’t get them because your kids are different and healthier and better, than those lowly vaccine-riddled kids.
