UFC Fighter Who Praised Hitler Now Explains How He Knows That The Earth Is Flat

UFC featherweight Bryce Mitchell is not a very smart man. Don’t believe us? Ask UFC president Dana White, who called Mitchell “literally one of the dumbest human beings” after the Arkansas native praised Adolf Hitler on a recent podcast episode. Mitchell half walked back his comments, but clearly does not understand why they made him look so stupid.
In fact, now he’s doubling down with his ridiculous theories. On a recent episode of the very same podcast, which we will not be linking to, Mitchell explained how he “knows” that the earth is flat, calling it “basic geometry.”
“I think no one will disagree once I explain it… Keep doing your own research, because there’s no proof the Earth rotates. That’s a lie from the devil,” he said, questioning how it would be possible to fly a helicopter at 15,000 feet if the Earth were rotating at 1,000 mph.

Last year, Mitchell said he’d be home-schooling his son because he didn’t want him “to be a Communist, to worship Satan, or to be gay.” pic.twitter.com/bXm9qjn4jq

The 30-year-old then then stated that as the helicopter ascends, it would follow a larger flight path, suggesting this disproves the idea of Earth’s rotation. Mitchell, who clearly does not understand the idea of inertia, claimed that the helicopter would travel farther than the Earth’s surface beneath it due to the Earth’s rotation.
On the same episode of the show, Mitchell stated that he will be homeschooling his child because he fears that if he attends public school, it will turn his son gay.
Now, some people are saying that Mitchell is showing signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy, more commonly known as CTE. While it’s entirely possible Mitchell does suffer from CTE, especially getting brutally knocked out by Josh Emmett at UFC 296, there’s no evidence that his ridiculous views are a result of the condition. Instead, Mitchell might just be as dumb as White claims he is.
