I’m aware that in the past people believed the earth was flat. I’m saying that recently…like within the last 5 years or so it made a comeback for whatever reason.

People in the distant past also knew the earth was spinning. It doesn’t even require any mathematical skill to realize that the way the sun appears to rise and fall in an arc at your given location probably indicates you are on the relatively moving object. Sure, maybe some of them thought it was a flat disc, perhaps, but i bet they mostly thought earth was spinning.
