Flat Earthers seem to come in 2 groups, true believers and trolls.

The trolls are just looking for an argument with no intention of doing anything but furthering the absurd. You can see it in their eyes. They enjoy the verbal sparing way too much.

The true believers are cult-like. No amount of evidence will change their believes. They will always have some illogical response to no matter what you show them. It’s very much like talking to a global warming cultist.

I go by how the bible description. Nothing else. Go ahead and say I’m in a cult. I care less.

I see it the other way around. They don't believe the standard models which many of them are very wrong. (examples: The claim the Sun is a gas and younger Dryas event standard models are easily proven wrong.) In other words the sciences have been lying to us intentionally.

Because the standard models are so far off from reality. It's easy to manipulate people trying to learn what reality really is.

Trolls and psyops are very good a manipulation of facts. Which the best way to do that is leaving out critical facts such as none of the flat earthers try to explain refraction.
Once you get someone to believe something is true. Deprogramming them isn't easy.

Those that fell into the deception of the flat earth. They should be easier to get them away from the deception then those that believe the sun is a gas as an example.

What Mark Twain observed applies to genuine Flat Earthers: it is easier to fool someone than to convince them that they have been fooled.
