It helps to go back and try to learn why people thought the earth was round in the first place, and how they measured it in ancient times.
Agreed! That’s how many of us who conclude that the earth is not spherical first realize that!
They didn’t measure or prove anything! They just assumed and then disingenuously/erroneously taught it as fact from childhood since ancient greece (at least).
One of the most interesting things i discovered in my research is that no one knows who measured and validated the assumption of the spherical world. Furthermore the people who they are taught are responsible for such validations are plainly incorrect. Common erroneous figures attributed, like eratosthenes and columbus, were taught from childhood that the world was spherical, just like we are today - and never once sought to validate or confirm that ostensible “fact”.

Fake
It is all pretty fake, but it is at least as equally misunderstood.
Like many dogmas in the religion of scientism, you are merely supposed to believe and parrot - not research or rationally criticize.
How does flat earth theory explain moon phases?
Tides?
Meteorites and shooting stars?
No one has ever reached this invisible dome in world history?
He’s not real.
It’s all astroturfed.
