Why do flat-earth conspiracy theorists believe that photos from space, including those of satellites, are fake?

OP: “Why do flat-earth conspiracy theorists believe that photos from space, including those of satellites, are fake?”

Photos of Earth from space absolutely demonstrate the Earth is a sphere.

The photos obviously exist. So in order for the Earth to be anything but a sphere, the photos must be “fake.” This is how flat earthers deal with all the evidence that proves them wrong. It must be fake. It must be a lie. The Earth HAS to be flat, so any evidence that proves that it's not flat must have been “fabricated.”

I caught my husband of 20 years looking at inappropriate pics of women on TikTok or Instagram. I'm not sure., but when I told him he got mad and made excuses of why they popped up. I then told him how I've snuck on his phone and saw what he's been looking at . We had a horrible big fight. I asked him why did he even marry me when I see the type he likes . Nothing like me, I'm petite, blonde and blue eyes. These women are dark haired dark eyed and have curvy bodies, large breasts, etc. I just don't feel the same about him after this. I can't get over this

Flat earthers reject any and all evidence that proves the Earth is not flat. That means that they have to call all the photos of Earth from space “fake.”

It's called “confirmation bias.” The way it works is you decide what ths “truth” is first, then you either accept or reject evidence based on whether or not it supports the “truth” you have accepted.
