What's up with all the flat earth/satellites are a lie stuff lately? Used to, you had to go out of your way to find that kind of stuff and now it's like every 3rd video on YouTube.

It's disinformation. Flat Earth theories tie in a bunch of things like the moon landing, electric/holofractal universes, and other theories which may actually have some truth to them. By associating them with Flat Earthers and flooding YouTube and the like with videos about it they can discredit anyone talking about valid theories because now they're just as crazy as those people who think the earth is flat.

Is the holofractal universe related to the holographic universe hypothesis?

Because conspiracy theories are all the rage and places like twitter, tumblr and youtube give people who believe this stuff a platform to spread their disinformation.

I think it's just that the Flat Earth theory has entered the mainstream because a somewhat famous rapper came out as a Flat Earther earlier this year. As a result, there's a bigger audience for videos about it because more people are curious about what they have to say.
