re: Why are "they" so obsessed with mentions of 'FLAT EARTH'? Just a silly "CT", right?

The FE model explains night and day like this:
flat earth with sun and moon
Where are Earth's magnetic poles in that model?

The same thing goes for you. You could go make those measurements as well. You seem to be an expert. After all, you said with much authority that there is no difference in Polaris' brightness between Northern Canada and Central America.
Yet you offer zero proof.
That isn't how this works. There is no difference.
Prove everyone wrong.
In fact you have the ability right now to prove the Flat Earth Model.
Take a plane and fly it to Africa. Then the Middle East. Then China. Then Hawaii. Then back home. Take as due East an approach as you can.
You should fall off the Earth at some point.
On top of that...how do compasses work?

At what distance south of the equator is Polaris obstructed from sight by the curvature of the Earth??
Edit:

A couple of years ago it was 1.23degrees South Latitude when it would begin to disappear.
I have no idea the exact coordinate in 2022 but I'm sure it could be found, and you could go check it out.

In the FE model, the sun is much smaller and much closer to the surface of the Earth than in the globe model. Therefore it is night in Afghanistan when it is day in the USA.
Ok, how does it live. Like said to side. Does it circle the flat earth?
Why does East/west matter and not north/south? And how does it get back to the East?

Yes or no?
And if you do not believe that, what do you believe is more likely, the globe model or the flat earth model? Why?
Go on record, directly.
I've read about flat earth.
I have observed things in nature that cannot be explained against what I've read in text books. I think there is much about the universe we don't know.
And as far as which model is more probable, I haven't given that much thought.
Do you believe the Earth is a sphere, an oblate spheroid, pear-shaped, geiod, an oscillating sphere? Because those are all plausible models for the shape of the Earth according to science. If there are that many models, one can assume that nobody truly knows the shape of our Earth.
But, I'm gonna need you to go on record directly.
Which do you think is most likely?
Why?

I'm reading the responses on my phone whilst trying to day trade you fricking sasquatch. My sincerest apologies for missing the answer.

That’s the thing! We can bring you all the proof in the world and you will dismiss it.
If you take the proof in yourself.. you have to believe it.
You folks place the burden of proof… this gigantic mountain of proof.. but you provide little.
So YOU need to do it. If it was a conspiracy… we would be trying to stop you. Why are we encouraging you???
Hell.. we show you photos and “ITS A FISH EYE LENS!!!!” You show us photos and it’s “SEE!!! LOOK!! ITS RIGHT HERE!!!”
And still waiting on how a 3000 mile across star can maintain fusion. I gather I’ll keep waiting on that.

It's been observed that Earth as well as other planets are oblate spheroids.

So it begins to disappear at a certain distance past the equator. Does it fade away or does it simply disappear at a certain distance??

So basically, we have all been living in a Minecraft world and didn't know it.

This is definitely not true. Because of Geodesy and a variety of other things, we know pretty exactly the shape of the earth at this point.

It will disappear below the Horizon.

No. That isn't the thing. I've dismissed no proof, because you've brought none. You say the burden of proof is on me.
You just speak as if you have some authority and in absolutes.
You've not proven that Polaris isn't brighter in Northern Canada than it is in Central America, but you've said it to be absolute truth.
Posted on 5/26/22 at 3:31 pm to Gideon Swashbuckler
When the Sun gradually sets below the horizon, which we all witness regularly, where does it go? At one point, only 50% of it is visible. Why? The FE model says it goes to far away to see any more. So the Sun should just appear smaller and smaller, but not cut in half.
You're FE buddy has left the thread. Too bad.

Yea. And I get the climate change hysteria now. If the ice ring melts, all the water runs off the edges.

Then why are there so many fricking models that are accepted by science if we KNOW.
Neil deGrasse Tyson is on camera saying that the Earth is pear shaped.
