something you aren't smart enough to understand.

This isn’t really about “smarts”. The smartest amongst us can be fooled. In any case, try to direct your responses to the content, and not engage in vapid ad-hominem.

When are you going to start?

Whenever you want! I’ve already shared plenty of facts - perhaps you would like to discuss the science that underpins them? The best way to understand and get specific answer, is to ask specific questions!

is be condescending and arrogant while offering no evidence for anything

It is not my intent to be condescending or arrogant - quite the opposite. My apologies if i have come across that way to you. I also have lots of evidence to offer - just ask!

How can you talk about "facts and science" if you blatantly disregard all the places where that information is stored and presented?

No one is advocating to “blatant disregard” anything but belief! The burden to thoroughly validate all claims (including “facts”, merely one type of claim) before accepting them always falls on the student. That’s all i’m saying.

One of the most wonderful things about science is that it requires no belief and is, in fact, hindered by it. So it is with all knowledge.

You are being dishonest by claiming that doing so makes that knowledge illegitimate

That would be dishonest, i agree. You are misunderstanding me.

It makes you a consoomerist sheep.

I largely agree with you. Research takes many forms (including discussion with others, and watching/evaluating videos/media) - but my particular approach focuses on science and the history thereof. You have likely not encountered earnest flat earth researchers such as myself before. Your criticisms are for and of “flat earthers” of the heavily advertised (i.e. funded) flat earth psyop.

Like the shape of every other heavenly body that we can see with a cheap telescope?

If i say, “gee, that cloud looks like a bunny” and then point at the cloud - you are quite likely to see the bunny resemblance. If i merely point at the cloud and say “gee, that cloud really looks like something”, you are very unlikely to see the bunny.

Expectation has a profound impact on interpretation. In science, it is known as “bias” and it is a four letter word.

What we see in the sky are certainly circular. Spherical is an assumption - a bias introduced through astronomy.

In any case, even assuming they were all spherical (a pathetically common and encouraged assumption/bias) it would have no necessary relevance to the shape of the world. Looking in the sky (the literal opposite direction) for the shape of the earth is both unscientific and powerful stupid.

The Earth is not a sphere. No one ever said that it was

Of course they did, but this semantic non-sequitur is irrelevant anyway. Spheroid, ellipsoid - whatever you like. I say a grape is spherical; it’s not a perfect sphere either, don’t get bogged down in needless pedantry if you can help it!

Ok, so in the cold war both sides agreed to trick everyone into thinking we went to the moon?

The truth is stranger than fiction because fiction is obliged to possibility. I know full well, and understand, why the things i say seem so absurd to you. If you want to understand what i am saying, how i have concluded them, and why - you should ask questions! Otherwise, continue to believe the fictional state sanctioned narrative you currently do. I won’t stop you!

They left things on the moon which can be seen from Earth.

Lol. Why do you think this? Who do you think has seen such things from the earth?

I have told you that you are wrong and you cry about it

Clearly you have misunderstood me. Could you cite/quote what i said that you interpreted as “crying”?

You are too dumb to understand basic physics

This is a silly and vain assumption on your part. However, it is understandable. How could someone that understands (and even likes!) physics ever say such things?!

If you want to know and understand the answer to that question, you will have to earnestly discuss it with me. It takes little more than some time and your earnest interest. Or you can keep being blinded by prejudice/bias and incredulity as a means to prevent and avoid civil rational discussion at all costs.... Up to you!

The pride and arrogance are yours, brother or sister. I am not better than you simply because i am more knowledgeable.

So instead of addressing ANY of the many points I made - you

Then when i address the points you make ...

Blah, blah, blah. [i’m ignoring you] - also you

:(

You can stick your fingers in your ears and yell “i can’t hear you” like a child if you wish. I can’t stop you, but don’t be surprised when you don’t learn anything new.

Why are you trying so hard to convince me

I’m not. I would never seek to convince [manipulate] you of anything.

I was just answering your questions and providing the evidence you requested.

You seem to have trouble following conversation :(
