On one hand, when you hear the flat Earth "researchers" speak, you will feel much, much better about yourself. And, if something (anything) that would seem like a "proof" is not immediately and clearly flawed to your mind, all you have to do is search for a debunk of that "proof". In this way you can actually learn what's happening and how to see the same for yourself. So... from this point of view, it's nice: you feel good about yourself, and you can search information elsewhere to learn about some phenomenons.
On the other hand, the fact that people waist resources (like oxygen) in order to put out something like this is very worrying for the future of humanity itself. What went so badly wrong that people need to believe in something so obviously false? How can the education system fail so miserably as to have people as inept as these at math, physics and... observation? Are we heading straight for Idiocracy?? Should we worry that is the dystopian future and not 1984, or Brave New World?
