Best that you can do is show them when Hawaii became a territory.
There will always be flat earthers and deniers unfortunately. 😞

Hawaii—a U.S. territory since 1898—became the 50th state in August, 1959, following a referendum in Hawaii in which more than 93% of the voters approved the proposition that the territory should be admitted as a state.
His point though was we had ships in their territory. Presumably off the cost of Japan. Which is totally irrelevant.
We have Russian fly-bys all the time in USA territory and visa versa. Neither of us start a war over it.
This is more than just lack of history. Yet as well a lack of current events knowledge.
BTW his alternate account has me blocked. Likely the same would happen if I joined that conversation. He really doesn't want facts.
