"Flat Earthers" are wrong #819: water drains clockwise direction in the Northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the Southern. #itsaglobe
same for stars:
-
look south, stars spin clockwise;
-
look north, stars spin counter-clockwise;
i know flat-earthers explain this with "it's an optical illusion" - lol - which is funny because flat-earthers claim everything about their "model" can be validated with simple observation #oops #fail
but i was just curious if one of you flat-earthers would care to explain the "water drain" phenomenon.... obviously not an "illusion", so you can't use that excuse.
...waiting...
Don't stars appear to spin consistent with the procession of their daily cycle? So north of the equator, they appear to spin counterclockwise when looking north. South of the equator, they appear to spin clockwise when looking south. If that is correct, then the stars are all moving across the sky in the same direction?! One would have to be in the south of the equator looking north to observe a counter clockwise apparent motion of the stars. Is this correct/does this make sense?
yes, but the point that the flat earthers are trying to make:
the "water drain" stuff is difficult to duplicate;
the "star spin" - they say - is caused by a reflection off the dome that covers flat earth - i'm not joking.
Lol some people go a little too far. Either way, I'm not 100 % convinced flat or globe. I've been taught the regular narrative but it doesn't really resonate with me as I think critically about where we are and what we are and what we are told is fact. It's a journey and there are haters on both sides. I'm in the middle... Some things make sense for flat and some things make sense for globe in my mind.
what part "doesn't really resonate" with you ?
in your "gut" you mean... some of the science stuff doesn't "feel" right, is what you are saying? :) lol
Basically right. I can't accept it from a freemason either. And it kinda contradicts the bible. So I am torn at the moment
