"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...

Well aren't we taught that the earth is tilted on its axis?

yes

So in the globe earth model wouldn't one hemisphere have more sunlight and heat than the other regardless of the equator?

yes, i believe it does

Also if the earth is an oblate spheroid, wouldn't the part of the globe that jets out further be closest to the sun?

yes, i believe it does

One last thing: wouldn't the sun rays heat be kinda negligible between the northern and southern hemisphere since we are so far away and apparently receive the rays at a similar angle and intensity?

which is why there is relatively little temperature difference - even between the poles vs the equator.

this seems pretty complete:
