someone who believes in a flat earth is also more likely to believe in the geocentric order of planets rather than the heliocentric one.

If not geocentric, then egocentric.

I highly doubt they know what either of those mean, actually

But they heard the word once and it sounds sciency, so they keep repeating it.

heliocentricism → the Sun is the center of the universe and all revolves around it

geocentrism → the Earth is the center of the universe and all revolves around it, including the sun
