For a flat earther, the deception and mockery is right in your face and you can't avoid it. The logos, cheap tricks, poorly told lies, it's so obvious you question how you were ever deceived to begin with. It's from being born into a world as a child and placing trust and confidence in the adults/authority over you. We believe in Santa Clause, Easter Bunny, the American dream,True Love(we still should, but many never find it, as children we all do though), legal justice, and a
righteous government as a child.
What do globe believers tell themselves about the photos I posted? The NASA logo is a coincidence it looks like a snake tongue? The word NASA meaning deception in hebrew is a coincidence? All the people that died in the challenger have lookalikes by coincidence?

Why do you subscribe to a model backed by entities that mock and deceive you?
Because you do not believe you are being mocked and deceived, and you think the entire world verifies their claims.
The world can't verify NASA's claims, they make claims adventuring into outer space and using high powered telescopes that are also in places we can't get to. So we do have to take much of what they say on faith, because only they have the resources to gather the data and make such claims.
The globe earth is a model that warps the creation with half-truths and lies like light years, black holes, curvature, dark matter, and universal expansion, so that you filter your senses and thoughts through these lies and see the world through the globe lens.
My faith in the flat earth is stronger than your globe beliefs, because I once believe what you did and already know what you know, when I hear you describe or make accusations about flat earth theory it's clear you do not understand the theory. It's rejected without consideration or understanding. For example, an individual of our community recently dismissed the theory because "light years" would be impossible on it.
On top of this, you are yet to be aware of the tools and deceptions in place to keep you locked into your false beliefs. If you took me up in a spaceship and showed me the globe earth, I would still reject the moon landing and ISS because I know NASA are liars and the evidence for the existence of those things are all fake. You may claim that you believe in the globe earth because of flight times, rotation, and shadows cast on Australian theaters, but your foundations are also built on NASA being honest and outer space travel being a verifiable fact.
Another problem is, we have running water, air conditioning,
and smart phones I can use to play Mortal Kombat against my friend in Vietnam. They didn't have these things when the globe was discovered, so it looks as though man realized the universe at the same time he realized the technology that built the "civilized" world with. I understand your confusion, but consider the possibility that man used the tools of the civilized world to deceive you. Literacy, mathematics, and a controlled education system to deceive you into the globe, and 2001: Space Odyssey special effects to trick you into believing we landed on the moon.
You need to be aware of the deception first, than when you see the reason you believe in the globe is because of false images and videos and the testimony of liars, you can become open to a more than equally plausible model of the world you live in.
This is kind of long and you may scroll through it or skip it entirely, I know that I do when you post long equations and facts about the globe, but give it a look.
