No you’ve made multiple claims that are supposed to Dispute what I’ve posted. It’s now your responsibility to prove your claims. If you can’t prove your claims stfu and move on. 

No, he didn't the rest of the World did, and they've proven it 10's of 1000's of times over and over.

 Again I'll ask you as you never answered before, why would 1000's of people lie about it and for what purpose? You continue to make a complete fool of your self day after day.

ABSTRACT

YouTube has been influential in propagating Flat Earth Ideology, but not everyone is equally susceptible to the effects of watching these videos. In an experiment with a participant pool restricted to regular YouTube users, we found that lower science intelligence and higher conspiracy mentality increase individuals’ susceptibility to flat Earth arguments on YouTube. In fact, these two dispositional variables interact: whereas people with lower conspiracy mentality do not find the arguments compelling at any level of science intelligence, among those with higher conspiracy mentality, perception of argument strength decreases as science intelligence increases. Moreover, perceptions of argument strength varied on the thrust of the clip’s argument (science-, conspiracy-, or religious-based), with the religious appeal being perceived as weaker and inspiring more counterarguing than the science clip. 
 

 

Science intelligence

We operationalize science intelligence as a combination of analytic thinking, quantitative reasoning, and knowledge of scientific facts (e.g., Kahan, 2017), and this measure positively correlates with other proxies for knowledge (e.g., education level) and thinking styles (e.g., actively openminded thinking, Kahan, 2017). Moreover, science intelligence predicts acceptance of a variety of scientific issues – though, this acceptance is sometimes conditional on other dispositions, such as political ideology and religiosity (e.g., Kahan, 2017; Kahan, Landrum, Carpenter, Helft, & Jamieson, 2017). Additionally, this operationalization predicts acceptance of viral deception (or “fake news”) as likely to be true (Landrum & Olshansky, 2019b).

Similar measures of analytic thinking and knowledge have also been linked to the rejection of science and acceptance of pseudoscience, fake news, and conspiracies. Pennycook and Rand (2019a), for example, found that lower scores on two versions of the cognitive reflection task (which is included in Kahan’s 2017 measure of science intelligence) predicted less ability to discern between true and false news. Bronstein, Pennycook, Bear, Rand, and Cannon (2018) generalized this non-analytic or intuitive cognitive style to delusion-prone individuals based on research that associated this type of cognition with belief in conspiracies (e.g., Barron et al., 2018; Swami, Voracek, Stieger, Tran, & Furnham, 2014), paranormal activity (Pennycook, Cheyne, Seli, Koehler, & Fugelsang, 2012), and “pseudo-profound bullshit” (Pennycook, Cheyne, Barr, Koehler, & Fugelsang, 2015; Pennycook & Rand, 2019b).

Ha ha ha ha ha . They aren’t describing science they are describing scientism. Everything thing you believe about the globe is a religion. There is no scientific proof of any of it.

Why would 1000's of people lie about it, for what purpose?

Interested in your explanation of how Newton's law of universal gravitation was derived without the earth being a sphere?  And at the same time explain how the law still works if the earth is a plane?   Make sure to give details in particular on how you account for the mass of the objects and their centers.

Why would our government lie about the gulf war, the gulf of Tonkin, operation north woods? Why would our government inject black men “ Tuskegee airmen” with syphilis? Why would governments around the world work to force covid vaccinations that do not stop the spread of covid and that have killed more people than every other vaccine ever made combined? Why would our government actively work to make people think ivermectin is for live stock only? Why would the fba allow chemicals in out food that cause cancer? 
 

they told you as a child the boats sailed over the horizon. I believed that until a few years ago when modern optics proved that to be a lie. 
 

the big reason they lie is to deny a creator. I’m not a religious person but I believe in god a creator.

Gravity can’t be proven. Gravity is a theory. Stop with the gravity bullshit

Can you dispute anything I typed? 

You simply believe lie after lie about which 99.99999% of the World knows are your fake BS beliefs about the truths including those who have seen the truth first hand, you discount them as liars but your sources are 100% factual, LOL. You are the one who must prove the rest of the World wrong.

Everything I posted is documented. No weapons on mass destruction, nothing happened at the gulf of Tonkin,  operation northwoods is 100% real and declassified documents prove it, same for declassified documents on the Tuskegee airmen being injected with syphilis. 
 

here’s my question why do you care what I think?

Show me one condition where modeling said so called gravity on Earth is wrong.  

Listen for the 1000000000000% time prove gravity using the scientific method or shut the fuck up. You believe in a spinning ball because of a magical mystical force that you can’t prove using science.
