This is a perfect example of the Brandolini’s law. People like you are just noise generators. You’re ignorant, and instead of spending time to educate yourself, you just post nonsense opinions online, and then you expect other people to waste their time refuting them as if they had some merit.
The reason you wonder is rooted in your ignorance. Here’s something you can chew on. Russia consistently dominates programming competitions. It’s a relatively small country of around 100 million people. If education was the same everywhere then why do you think it’s able to consistently beat a billion people who got their education in western countries.
and then you expect other people to waste their time refuting them as if they had some merit.
That’s rich.
Look at your response. You expect to be able to shoot down all counter opinions with merely “this doesn’t reach my standards for reply”.
Nothing I’ve said is bullshit. Let’s take a look at it again:
it is inevitable that some tiny percentage harbor contrarian and anti-authoritarian personalities of the sort and degree that will gravitate to nonsense like this. They cannot be educated out of it, indeed, education may actually backfire as they learn just enough logic to misapply it to science and dream up absurdities like Flat Earth^TM.
What here is the bullshit? That humans number in the billions? Or that personality also follow a normal distribution, such that there will always be some people who simply refuse to exit their (delusional) belief systems?
From this it follows that no educational system, even an ideal one, could hope to dissuade such people.
The reason you wonder is rooted in your ignorance.
I’m not sure you know what “ignorance” means. Generally, the word is used to indicate that someone is unaware of a fact or set of facts established outside of their perception.
Which facts are those, exactly?

Do you know how to formulate an intelligent argument? This is a non sequitur.
Yes, Russia likely dominates those competitions (I will take your word for it). This has little to do with their education system.
Is Russia somehow focusing intensely on programming and computer science in their equivalent of k-12?
If Russia isn’t focusing on that, wouldn’t we expect them to dominate in all competitions of the academic variety?
If they do focus on those, why did you bother to pick out “programming” instead of mentioning it more generally?
Is Russia somehow immune to the “flat earther” phenomenon? If they are, why did you not mention this which is so much more relevant?
The flaws in your own argument seem to suggest answers to all of these questions, none of which support your bizarrely stupid thesis that “proper education systems can prevent the formation of flat-earther-like conspiracy mythologies”.
