Sadly, you can reliably trust that the internet will vomit up harmful pseudoscience all over the place. Thankfully, some people out there who actually know what they're talking about are willing to explain the facts as understood by the real experts.
What makes people want to lie on the internet? Does it give them a weird sense of satisfaction? Do they think they can actually take credit for things that are easy to fact-check? Do they just want to make the world worse? Either way, what feels really nice is to see justice come to them in the form of a dutiful commenter.

This is seemingly the case with the Flat Earth Society after their answer to Elon Musk.
