This is the opposite of what a flat earther would say.
The main position of flat-earther (and the backers of conspiracy theories) is that you can't trust sources, especially official sources of course.
And if you look at things without having the official explanation you start to notice things that, in appearance, do not make sense. Like the fact that you can see farther away than the curvature of earth allows. Of course it's very easy to explain with the refractory properties of the atmosphere but can be quite difficult to demonstrate.
PS: earth is definitely round, I'm not trying the defend their theory.
