Yes, this flat earth nonsense is extremely psychologically and pseudoscientifically compelling enough for those unable or unwilling to check the half-truths and illogical thought processes they present.

It's really an incredibly sociologic experiment on what happens when the educational system has dumbed down everyone, but has made them feel special. I honestly think these guys actually believe that watching a YouTube video that says Newton's theories have been debunked make them feel smarter than Newton, despite the fact they haven't taken 2 minutes to investigate anything about it.

These people seem to believe they have discovered something that a thousand years of science has either overlooked or hidden... and that they are the 1% of the 1% of the smartest people to have ever lived.

It's actually quite horrifying to watch the contortions of logic, reason, and science these people do to justify their bizarre position.

While these whackjobs are telling everyone that the earth doesn't spin, science has invented microprocessors that are printed onto circuit boards that measure the Coriolis force, and install them into cars to prevent rollovers, and they are even in gaming controllers for more realistic gaming.

Yeah, that's how scientifically illiterate these guys are. They say that they can't 'feel' the earth moving, so therefore they've scientifically proven it with 'real science', while the rollover prevention in cars based on the force they deny exists is 'scientism'!

It's quite frightening, actually.
