How can the moon appear "upside down" when viewed from what the rest of us call "the southern hemisphere" on a flat Earth? (media.scored.co)

But then the moon would be visible from everywhere all the time.

Made another drawing for you, showing that the further away something gets, the lower in the sky will it appear to us. This is due to how perspective works:

That doesn't change what i said. Yes some folks would see the moon directly above, others would see it off in the distance, but everyone would see it all the time.

Once the moon gets far enough away, and you watch it at, say a 0.01 degree angel, then our view of it will be blocked by literally anything between us and where the moon would appear to us in the distance.

Give me numbers then. What's the diameter of the flat earth and how far is the moon from the surface? Then we can check if it's even possible to get a 0.01 degree angle, even from edge to edge.
