i dont think you have ever encountered someone who claimed the 24 hour sun in the artic is fake
Not “irl”, no - and, due to poe’s law, I could have misinterpreted them - but ostensibly yes, I did encounter them! I’d have to check my old messages to figure out who it was - but it was on this site.
You don't understand how the lack of the 24 hour sun in the Antarctic proves that the earth cannot be a sphere.
I think I understand why you think it does, but I don’t think you have considered the possibility that the world could be flat AND have a 24 hour sun in the antarctic.
One is not necessarily dependent on the other, nor would the lack of an antarctic sun prove that the world were spherical. The lights in the sky do what they do, the land is separate. In order to measure the shape of the land, we must measure the land! Not observe lights in the sky (the opposite direction) and then infer based on unvalidated assumption! Right?
