What about all of those people guarding the ice wall in Antarctica? Surely these things must be true, so how come nobody has ever seen it? I thought FEers only believed in things that they can see, but they believe in that?

Thanks!No, but if you make the claim that Antarctica is inaccessible, for your credibility it would help to show evidence that such a huge continent is guarded 24/7/365.It's expensive, but from Ushuaia you can book a vessel that goes to Antarctica. Why not crowdfund such an operation and prove your point?

It is.Absence of evidence does count as evidence of absence, with varying strength depending on the evidence that should be expected vs the evidence that is present.There are even logical proofs of this.And this is hardly the strangest thing which is technically evidence.Plenty of people have been to Antarctica, or Antarctic waters, and found no evidence of this massive army/navy guarding it.This constitutes evidence of absence.

How come whenever a question is asked to a FEer, the reply always attacking the question/asker, instead of answering the question? It's a simple question, if the ice wall is guarded, where are the guards? Are they invisible? Wild claims are made by flat-earthers, and get angry when asked to back them up? Why so defensive.

Thanks!there are evidence that there is no guards patrolling the Antarctica: see all the expeditions to the Antarctica and the southpole, no one got stopped.

You can quote logical fallacies all you want to make yourself look like a charlatan, but unfortunately, the burden of proof IS ON YOU. Your the one who MADE THE CLAIM, so you must PROVE IT"You cannot disprove 'x' therefore 'x' is true" is literally one of the dumbest logic...
