People who know that Earth is approximately spherical come from all over the political spectrum, flat-earthers, when they write about politics, tend to be extremely right wing, perhaps distrustful of all political views, but I can't ever remember seeing a leftist flerf. Occasionally a comment appears blaming flat-earth on the left. This isn't the first time, so I've decided to start to document them.
It was in a thread in Flat Earth Mockery and Ridicule that began by asking
A number of suggestions were made, my favorite was "an ignorance", but then there was a comment saying just
When challenged, David replied "There’s only one side of the political aisle that denies reality with things like men can be women, men can get pregnant and that men can compete in women’s sports and it’s still fair or that the border is secure or that equity is the same as equality or education equals intelligence or that white supremacy is really a threat in America. We’re not the ones denying reality. The left has shown time and time again that they reject reality. So it only stands to reason that it would be the left (democrats) that would be the ones most likely to believe in the flat earth theory. Hell, they’ll fall for anything if CNN says it. 😆😆"
Could David have just been disagreeing with a post suggesting "a Trump rally"? Or was he serious?
I found this interesting, because generally it's flat-earthers who bring up transgender issues in discussions of the shape of the Earth. For example
The next one was posted together with the unexplained text "Shame on you, globers. Shame on you." I commented that the connection may be simply "obvious" to them and they see no need to explain it.

In Nanaimo Flat Earth, a flerf post about "a transgender star", whatever that is supposed to mean
The poster when challenged by other globers, gave a rather flerfish response: "Stop lying and accept the truth". On the other hand he has a history of posts in the group on the globe side, and in another comment said he was not a flerf. But he didn't provide any examples of flerfs on the left.
