One fun thing about the whole flat earth thing is that people who argue online (correctly, of course), that the earth is round often will smugly do it using completely incorrect arguments or using photographic evidence that doesn't show what they think it does. And that's often generally true for people who "trust the science" about most topics. It's basically impossible to know the actual reasons for why scientists believe _everything_ that science has established, most people just "take their word for it" and don't actually make any effort to understand the justifications for almost any of their beliefs.
It's sort of useful to have people around who just believe stuff and argue for stuff completely outside the usual scientific method just to keep people on their toes.
