The cheap rhetorical tactic of comparing an opponent's complex, nuanced, or heterodox position—especially one that challenges a scientific or institutional consensus—to the belief that the Earth is flat. This fallacy is a thought-terminating cliché designed to bypass engagement by equating skepticism of a specific scientific model (e.g., string theory, certain climate projections) with a denial of basic, observable reality. It's guilt-by-association with the ultimate symbol of absurdity.
