It would be intriguing to understand the psychology behind Turbo's beliefs.
I’m about 95% convinced he’s a troll.
Really? I'm 100% convinced he's a troll.

Depends upon how sensitive your measurement instrument is. A yardstick probably wouldn't work because the Earth's influence is so much greater, but it can be measured.

It can be detected at even smaller scales than that. With the right instruments.

But a new experiment that measured the miniscule gravitational attraction between two tiny gold spheres, each spanning just 2 millimeters across, could be the first of many to provide clues to how gravity operates at these scales.

Again..
Anyway. How can I use mass and density to move an object sideways since you insist there is no gravity. And mass and density is causing objects to move.
How does an object know to accelerate towards the center of the earth when underground in a cave, or mine shaft.
A cave offers pretty uniform air density(or an air lock can guarantee air density) and the dropped object is surrounded by earth. How does a dropped object “know” to drop down. Why can the object not be “tricked” into falling up? It’s surround by uniform density.

You could completely ruin his day by suggesting any sort of flying in a vaccuum
We couldn't put a bird in one, they'd just suffocate... but a drone could be placed in a vaccuum... and without any way to get lift... flight wouldn't be possible...
Theres goes his "gravity doesn't exist because birds fly" nonsense

If there is no gravity. Then there is no weight to an object. No downward force. If there is no weight to an object. If things merely sort out by density with no gravity in your false world, then why do bridges have weight limits. In your false world of no gravity and no downward force, bridges shouldn’t have weight limits.
With no gravity. Why do objects only fall down towards the center of the earth? Why do objects fall at all? In your false works you should be able to use density to trick things to fall up like dead birds.

Um there is no air in a vacuume in fact we remove almost everything in Nasas vacuum chamber for example you have 1000 protons per cubic meter. (notice i didnt say atoms like oxygen 1 oxygen atom is about the equivalent of 16 protons. ) This means density cant possibly work in a vacuum. Oh and this isnt even the best one we can create by the way. In fact it so sensitive they have to avoid leaving finger prints because the vacuum will lift the oil from fingerprints. The LHC creates an ultra high vacuum through a 3 pump process that rivals the vacuum of space about 6 protons per cubic meter. Needless to say they cant have extra material in the tubes of the accelerator it would mess up the experiment by having collisions in the wrong places.
They have repeatedly told us, taught since we were small, impressionable children, and since then, over and over again, as a great mantra, that among all the many, many things we will all learn about, in schools, in books, etc. -
We must all learn, first of all, about the Earth being a ball, about Earth flying through space, an endless area beyond Earth, which has no end, but it is also 'expanding' more and more all the time, too!
These things are taught to us, as children, and afterwards, too. Nobody knows why it's taught to children, but who cares about it, anyway! No big deal.
It's called imprinting, suggestion, brainwashing, and so on - and that's why they teach it to us as children, and afterwards, to not even THINK about it, as any other issue would be, or most issues, anyway, React to any who doubt it, or question it, by attacking them, laughing at them , insulting and mocking them, as stupid, as uneducated on the issue, at once, and attack them again and again.
You MUST believe there is a force, within Earth, because you believe Earth is a ball flying through space, and if you accept that as absolute fact, you'll make up any excuses for it, because it must fit your belief that Earth is a ball flying through space, nothing else is even considered possible, to you.
I've explained why 'gravity' is nonsense, because actual forces work consistently, not contradictory, as 'gravity' is, so blatantly, that anyone can see it.
