Water does not go down drains in a different direction in the northern and southern hemispheres, it's a fake meme it depends entirely on the original flow of the water and shape of the basin, you can make it flow different directions at your house.

You are correct here, but coriolis effect is too small in this example. Look to hurricanes spin in the hemispheres.

Are tree stands because the field is curved?

So, with a flat earth, on a giant 5000 acre plot of cleared land, just climbing 40-50’ into a tree stand, I can see further. Please PLEASE explain this one to me.

I don't know. I have yet to see the earth in its fullness.

That's why I was laughing so hard. He proved our point without him even knowing it.

The sheer number of people that would have to be aware of the conspiracy, and in on the cover-up, alone, makes the whole thing ridiculous.

Unless ... the "people" covering it up are really Reptilian shape shifters who use humans as a food source and a baby factory and occupy all levels of world leadership. BAM. Didn't think about THAT did ya?

There is not a hint of irony. You can see further in your house from heights. Is the floor curved? You can see further at a basketball game from heights.

Once again all you can do is post emoticons, belittle. You don't actually think. You have zero common sense.

I was the one that knew the lessons were bullcrap, was bored and unchallenged, slept to valedictorian status and the teachers hated me. Your assumptions are incorrect. You're crazy and brainwashed because you are scared you're stupid so you just believe the authorities, I'm intelligent and critical, I know I'm a genius the way everyone who has ever met me knows, it's not something I have to prove to the teacher. So I have the intellectual confidence to discern the truth on my own. You need to get on my level and stop worrying about what the authorities and your buddies say
I've changed my mind. You're my favorite poster now.

What do you do for a living out of curiosity?

There is near infinite proof to it does.

Why aren't there overhead shots from satellites of Antarctica on Google Earth?
There are.

But I have a better question... how do we have satellite imagery at all?

They are spliced images, like they were stretched to fit a globe model.
Uh yeah, all 2D images have to be stretched to fit our 3D reality. If you take a photo of an orange and print it out, you think you can fit that photo back onto the orange?

If the ocean is flat and there is nothing in the way, why would going up 100 feet in the air give you a broader view?

Wouldn’t you be able to see just as far at water level? After all, the ocean is completely flat.

Because you have gotten further away from the object of your vision (the field). Now it is smaller from your perspective and in your field of view. You fricking moron.

No you can’t. If I’m standing at ground level in an arena, I can see the opposite side of the arena. If I am at the top seat of the arena… I can see the exact same distance. The other side of the arena.

Because there are things like houses and fences obstructing your view.

You can see above the people in front of you. You can't see further.

Why can one see further on the open ocean from a crow's nest? With nothing to obstruct the view it shouldn't matter on a flat earth.

Ok take a picture from ground level and take a picture from the rafters and see which shows you more of the court clearly

God you morons have no conceptual ability or common sense

perfect, then I hope you can help me out understanding how the flat earth model copes with the following:

quote:

1. Why is a flight from Sydney to Johannesburg about the same time and distance as a flight from Sydney to Los Angeles?

2. How do satellites work? GPS, geostationary, Starlink, any of them.

3. Why can't we always see the sun?

4. Why don't all straight paths lead to Antarctica?

5. Why does it take so little time to sail or fly all the way around Antarctica?

6. Why are some constellations visible in the northern hemisphere but not the southern hemisphere and vice versa?

7. Why does everyone on Earth see the same face of the moon?
