Sun dials don't work on the globe model. Axial tilt would cause the solar noon shadow to point in drastically different directions through the 4 seasons. (media.scored.co) Discussion

Sun dials need to be adjusted throughout the year to account for axial tilt. If you do not, you will get inaccurate times (as seen in your meme). Get you own sun dial and you will see for yourself.

“Solar time and clock time line up at noon on April 15, June 15, September 1 and December 24, which is why those days are recommended for setting a sundial. If you want your sundial to be as accurate as possible, reset your dial on each of those dates.”

This is something you can test yourself with a post. Mark the shadow of the post at noon once a week for a year. You WILL see the same shadow patterns that your meme is showing, 100%.

Sun dials DO in fact “point In drastically different directions through the 4 seasons.”

Congratulations, this is probably the best argument AGAINST the flat earth model I ever saw. Why would sun dials “point In drastically different directions through the 4 seasons” on a flat earth?

None of the permanent sun dial fixtures in my city are adjustable.

But, this is a controlled opposition talking point. As Noon is not determined by angle but by daylight, as the length of the day accounts for positional changes over the time of the year. Therefore, the sunlight doesn't come from four distinct directions, but will always be facing the same direction, regardless of position on horizon. It's not noon at midnight during the winter as apposed to summer is it? No, of course not. That would be silly. The tilt is the misdirection in this ploy. As it always has been.

Now the starscape. That will face 4 distinct directions, and should be a panorama of new stars arriving on the nightly.

In short. Learn to recognize controlled opposition. A visualization of third dimensional space, and movements through time will aid you in doing so.

In addition. The light is above the equator on this model. Positioned in line with the sun dial, where as the tilt will NOT cause the shadow to change directions, as it will always be below the sun dial located in the State of Georgia.
