Abstract

Calls for censorship have been made in response to the proliferation of flat Earth videos on YouTube, but these videos are likely convincing to very few. Instead, people are worried about these videos affecting others. This study examines third-person perceptions related to Flat Earth videos on YouTube. We found that participants’ religiosity and political party were most important for predicting third-person perceptions across the different group types.
