You think I understand absolutely nothing

In English, one negative is usually enough.

Yes, in English that tends to happen ;)

Suggest: consider --> think

In many contexts, these are interchangeable; and I read "consider" in your sentence as having the same meaning as "think."

But "think" is perfectly natural here, while "consider" is a little jarring--not something usually heard. I fed "you consider I understand" and "you think I understand" to Google's Ngram Viewer. "Think" got many hits; "consider," none.

Great , thanks for your explanation. Done.
