So, I had never heard of rapper B.o.B. until I heard that astrophysicist, Neil deGrasse Tyson, was in some sort of feud with the guy because B.o.B believes the Earth is flat and we’re all sheep for not believing otherwise.
At first I thought this was hilarious. I mean, what dumbass in this day and age believes the Earth is flat, oh reality star Tila Tequila but she also thinks Hitler is one pretty cool dude so I question her legitimacy.
I went to check out Bob’s twitter page to get the DL to see what was going on for myself and my opinion of “this is hilarious” quickly changed to this guy is fucking scary! His ranting goes on and on and to an audience of 2.3 million followers, AND the scariest part of all is the amount of people who support and agree with this rapper spouting nonsense.
Neil deGrasse Tyson responded via Twitter then appeared on The Nightly Show With Larry Wilmore, serving up a case of science and fact and then literally dropping the mic to explain gravity.
I don’t know if Bob is going through a Beautiful Mind kind of a breakdown or what. If he is I truly hope he gets the help he needs, because what he’s saying isn’t the least bit funny. Like Tyson says, it’s harmful.
