Flat earther = Science hater.

Why do people think Earth is flat? Are they that dumb?
4
Yes, they are that dumb.
5
Fortnite is very annoying cause SO many people talk about it and won't SHUT UP!!
2
That's why I'd put it above flat earthers on the Scale of Stupidity, people won't shut up about it! At least flat earthers are few and far between
5
Flat earthers are the stupidest people because:
A. Whatever you say to them, they have something to say back as evidence for a flat earth (except for reasonable gravity laws), which means you can't teach them something.
B. Elon musk (or some other big tech guy) once asked why there isn't a flat mars society, the answer he got back from the flat earth society: "unlike the earth, mars has been proven to be round."
Yea... That is pretty stupid if you ask me.
Fortnite is second though

Perhaps you forgot that anti-vaxxers exist.

Damn, I actually did, the think we got a shared first spot then. XD

Flat Earth vs. Fortnite.

Flat Earth does not exist whilst Fortnite does.

Yeah, I know right? Everybody knows that the Earth generates biomes randomly.

"I personally don't like this and therefore it's dumb" <- everyone voting for fortnite.
3
True! VOTE FOR FORTNITE!
1
I saw saying that you shouldn't vote for something just because you personally don't like them, since everything on the poll other than flat earthers is subjective, but ok
4
flat earthers are impossible to teach which makes em the stupidest humans on earth
4
Don't forget about anti-Vaxxers. They're equally stupid.

Might I suggest you add hytale to this list?
2
Yeah, Hytale is kind of dumb the more you think about it. Like, why would Hypixel make another Minecraft clone when you have an existing server on Minecraft, and we already have the original Minecraft to enjoy with it's wonderful quality of mod creation, texture modification, and full-on skin customization (And not just putting basic accessories on a player-selected client-sided (in my own opinion) ugly default model)? :P
2
I know right?!
2
Yeah! Although I have an open mind about Hytale (like the explosive amount of creative freedom (live script testing, an in-package collaborative resource editor, etc.) and their ability to accept community feedback in a moment's notice), I just don't see why they would put in so many years of work to try to fix something that isn't broken, especially when you can make Minecraft look exactly like it with mods. :P

The simple answer is business, which isn't always bad. (This isn't to change your opinion, just to add something that may add some clarity.)
The long answer is that if you have mods, you'd have to develop those mods, and any player that wants to play it will have to get said mods. It'd be a massive drop in players, because not everyone that wants to play will be able to run mods with custom models. You would also have to update the server and the mod, while developing both, spending more time on both, and over time that will become harder and more tedious.
The fix, or alternative, would be like what Wynncraft does, a texture pack with custom items/item models and plugins. This is, however, very much so limited, and then you'd have to (if you didn't make the plugins) wait for those plugins to update when the game updates, as well as the texture pack if you want to add more items, etc. It would, however, mean that all people need is vanilla Minecraft to play.
Shortened down, it'd be a pain to keep up, and that can make them lose players more so than is seen as necessary or reasonable. This can also mean that anyone that relies on it as a job (as some people do if developing/working on a server takes up too much time) is at risk of losing a lot of money, and that can mean losing their lifestyle.
So, theres that, or developing a new game they can control, add what they want, etc, without having to run the strain of keeping up with updates on a game you can't control much of other than what version they're on and how updated their own mods/plugins/etc are. So, it isn't necessarily fixing something that isn't broken, its more like an in depth customization to something they may be able to better work with, if that makes sense. This also means any developers using it as a job will not lose as much because "I want to play 1.15/1.14/w.e update, but [Server] isnt updated. Oh well /moves to different server, possibly never comes back"
Any of the three ways is work, and by no means do you have to like what they choose, nor am I trying to make you. Basically they're just choosing the route where they have more control over what they're trying to work with, so that they can make something that will possibly run better than Minecraft (as it gets laggy pretty quick with mods/plugins/etc after a point) and provide a more stable means of keeping their business going. Either way, they will lose following, but if its something theyre more passionate about, as they seem with Hytale, it can turn out far better than just a MC server with extensive modding or plugin/texturing work.
(this turned out longer than I expected so stuffed the majority of it into a spoiler.)

You know, I can totally respect your opinion on that part. I can understand that mods take forever for a developer to make, and coming from personal experience, it's hard to simply update a mod for another version yourself, even if it's for personal use. Heck, it's because of a particular mod that makes it hard for me to back to one of my favorite servers, even though I have the patience to rebuild everything all over again and get used to a new version. What I'm saying is that with the mods that already exist on a good amount of Minecraft versions (even the old ones), it still wouldn't make sense to remake something we already have, even though it's all included in vanilla Hytale without needing to update the game. Regardless, I still agree with most of your points.
Also, if you're really interested, I have a blog over on my channel that explains why I'm so indifferent about Hytale, despite it seeming super promising.

I've never heard of that.
Oh, wait, yes I have. But I don't know what it is.

a game that is similar to Minecraft but hasnt released yet and may blow Minecraft to hell if Mojang doesnt kick their asses into gear on features and graphics
2
Wait, it we play Minecraft does that mean we too are flat earthers? (Since Minecraft worlds are flat)
1
I mean, if you believe the actual earth is round I’m pretty sure that disqualifies you as a flat earther. Minecraft player or not.

All except cats and Game of Thrones

you dont have roblox as an option

I wish I'd thought of that before. If I edit the poll, it takes all the votes away.

Bish, don't you dare!

Uh, if you care about the excess opinion(s)
As someone who used to play League, I can't bash on Fortnite very hard. Its dumb, yeah, I agree, I don't think some features are useful, and its not my style of game in general (though i do like the cartoony artstyle, but that alone wouldn't make me play it.). But I can't bash on Fortnite because it's drawn a pretty good amount of kids away from League, which made ranked and norms so much more pleasurable to play. Even though my teams still may have sucked, I'm not looking at a chat blaming someone else for their 1-5 death ratio. Left League on a decent, not wonderful but better than terrible, term (but still a bit frustrated due to other stuff), thanks to Fortnite.
Don't like the game itself, though, I'll restate. Just means the kids are off of games I would very much so like to play without wanting to impale my face on something.
Flat-Earthers, though...They can get extreme, and are a continuous irritation. They don't bother me very much though. Then again, I'm not looking at flat earthers every five seconds so not sure how bad they're getting right now..
Going to say gas station coffee. Not because its dumb, but because I for one prefer home brewed coffee over Starbucks and gas station. <_> Everyones entitled to their own opinion though :p I hear some gas stations have pretty decent coffee.
