You're more concerned with the objective of waking people up vs. explaining how flat earth actually works. "cognitive dissonance" is your go-to phrase which describes the discomfort experienced when two cognitions are incompatible with each other. Yet, from my perspective, everything in that globe video makes perfect sense. Everything about gravity makes perfect sense. There is 0 conflict with the globe model. Yet with FE, there is a HUGE amount of things that make no sense. #1 - no one has ANY photographic evidence of the edge or what's under the earth. ---Hell, some flat earthers believe there is some dome above us which means the height of the atmosphere when you at at the edge - I guess you're 'ice wall' would be looking up at a curving arc and only the people at the north pole would have the greatest height of atmosphere above, which makes zero sense. If there is any cognitive dissonance, it is the FEs. They can't explain why you can't see more and more of the flat plane as you increase your altitude instead of more and more of the horizon (because the ball curves away), or why ships disappear - they say perspective yet don't understand how that even works. I could go on. Claim after claim after claim is simply unprovable and silly, yet they keep trying. If that is not cognitive dissonance, I don't know what is.
