Here’s how the celebrity scientist addressed the issue and offered a fig leaf:
@bobatl Duude — to be clear: Being five centuries regressed in your reasoning doesn’t mean we all can’t still like your music

@bobatl Flat Earth is a problem only when people in charge think that way. No law stops you from regressively basking in it.

@bobatl Earth’s curve indeed blocks 150 (not 170) ft of Manhattan. But most buildings in midtown are waaay taller than that.
