Yup, absolutely. I merely disagree a bit on how willing they are to accept their burden of proof. I find flat earthers don't even understand the concept, which is okay because if I had time to hang out with them I could get them over that line. But I don't so I just make that the line. The Q people have a bunch of those as well but you can have a conversation with them and you can get them sometimes to consider another perspective.
It's not much but a toe over the line is fine for me. I just want them on my side when we need to move our people forward in a big way in the next little while. There is a lot that needs to be done and we need every single one of them.

It's on purpose, supporting/defending the flatearth position is kind of like trying to run a marathon in a garage; you're in an impasse from the get go and your margins of maneuver are quite limited. So you essentially need to keep turning in circle or run on some sort of treadmill, so evidently in a debate that will translate into "nice CGI", "nice state propaganda", "nice collection of fake news", "I don't believe this", "it's the fisheye" etc... You need to change course every time you're about to hit the wall basically. Of course then you have the "curved universe treadmill" ultimately, as in "earth is flat it's just that we live in a curved universe that's all" and such. It's a game of let's see how far I can go and get away with it.
Heh. I heard benny hill music reading this. By far the best description of their position.
