'''"Weaponizing the Flat Earth Movement"''' is an article by [[David de Hilster]] published on 14 February 2020 on ''Beyond Mainstream'', also released on his ''Dissident Science'' YouTube channel.

De Hilster's argument is not a defence of flat-earth claims but an examination of how they are used. He compares the movement to the crop circles of the 1970s, eventually revealed as a hoax, and contends that mainstream science's attention to flat-earth belief serves a broader purpose — discrediting dissent by association — which he regards as considerably more damaging than the movement itself.
