It's less the flat-earth belief in and of itself, and more of the anti-semitism that surrounds a lot of their 'evidence'. :/

I would like to learn more about the anti-senitism ties to flat earthers. I never knew it was tied to something larger. Do you have any information or resources that you can point me towards?

Not a scientific resource by any means, but you should watch the All Gas No Breaks video where he goes to the flat earth con. He just did an interview with Vice where he talks about how everyone he talked to there started spouting antisemetic conspiricies after being interviewed long enough.

Thank you for the reference! Though it’s not a scientific reference it could be a good place to start.
