I wonder how flat earthers explain it’s winter here in S. America and summer in Europe, at the same time.

I think it was either a Miniminuteman or a Folding Ideas video that showed what some flatties proposed: the Sun moves in a wacky repeating spiral pattern above the surface. It’s closer to the Arctic during summer and to the Antarctic during winter. Obviously that doesn’t conform to any physical laws, observed phenomena, or reasonable ideas that a person of ordinary intelligence might come up with… but that simply reinforces their belief that everything else is a lie and they figured out the real truth.

I imagine it is like moving a lamp over a table. Closer parts have summer and further away parts have winter.

Which is pretty funny because in the northern hemisphere during January, the sun is closest to us. It’s our axial tilt that drives the winter, being tilted further away in winter.
But God forbid they learn some actual fucking science 😂

I’m sure there’s both types of flat earthers.

Their worldview is heavily built around Christian magic nonsense: The sky is a dome (firmament). Gravity doesn’t exists, it’s just buoyancy. They probably assume wind currents change and blow the cold off the icewall surrounding the world edge…

The earth is flat; it’s just space that’s curved.

They think earth is flat and space is 3d
