LOL. If you must use ridiculous psychological tactics, that is quite likely because you have no actual argument except "it looks flat, therefore it is!!!".

So, why don't we start with you defining the word level and explain how one works. I'll wait. Plus, I already addressed that here anyway.

But WHICH of the things you see tells you it's flat? Because horizon drop tells you it's a globe. So, are you taking ALL of what you see into account? Or just what you can see that you WANT to see and confirm your bias?

Because THIS says it's not flat. In fact, that the horizon always 'rises to eye level' is a Dubay MANTRA... however it's a lie. Horizon drops at an observable and measurable rate.

As do these planes landing say that it's a globe, as well as hundreds of other simple observations people have been making for 2000 years such that few people in the civilized world have believed the earth was flat since the 4th century.

So, if you choose to IGNORE the things you can see that you don't like, sure, then your senses say it's flat... because both a flat earth and a sphere the size of the earth are consistent with the flatness. But, If you want to figure out the shape of the earth correctly, you must take ALL information about the earth into account, not just the information that confirms your bias.
