Good post.
This thread is a spin-off of another flat earth threas
I answered your question there
@xCivicx , I admire the fact that you don't give up, but I have to ask, what proof do you have the earth if flat? What proof do you have that we live in a firmament? How can you prove that earth has an edge?
My own eyes and common sense
@the bold nowhere have I ever said that the earth has an edge. I've explained multiple times now that in most serious flat earth systems, antarctica is a ring around this entire plane that actually holds the oceans and landmasses where they are.
Antarctica is a heavily restricted area. The longest running most successful multi-nation treaty is the Antarctic Treaty
People who don't understand the concept of flat earth and who don't even try and research it usually jump to the "where is the edge" strawman
For example, here is my favorite proof that we are probably living in a flat earth system. It' so simple that it's easy for even a child to understand
Time is constant
On January 1st at noon, you look up at the sky and see the sun. 24 hours later you see the same thing at the same time, the sun. Every 24 hours you see the sun in the sky at noon
Fast forward 6 months later to July 1 at noon. You look up at the sky and see the sun, BUT, according to heliocentric theory, we're on the exact OPPOSITE side of the sun, so we SHOULD be facing AWAY from it, meaning it SHOULD actually be midnight on July 1, if time is constant(which it is)
Sunlight should be shifting back and forth between noon and midnight but it doesn't, which directly disproves heliocentric theory
Here's a pic to illustrate what I'm saying
Anyone please feel free to show me where I'm not making sense

Can you prove that Antarctica is just a massive ice ring that holds everything in place? Also, why do they have cruise ships that go to Antarctica if it is so heavily restricted? Have you, with your "own eyes and common sense," seen any of this?

If earth wasn't spinning, that pic would make perfect sense

The earth spins... why would it be night at 12 pm during any month(in the US)? This doesn't make any sense.
No there aren't cruise ships that go to antarctica
I'm gonna need you to actually read what that post for comprehension, because you haven't yet
Nah it makes perfect sense
You're just not actually thinking
Read that post again and actually try and understand it
Every 6 months the block of light that the earth receives should be at the opposite time that it was 6 months earlier because the earth supposedly is on the opposite side of the sun

Explain it to me in a way that's understandable for a round Earther.
I'm not seeing how it's possible. Even more so, and this wasn't a topic of the pic, but you notice how Alaska and Antarctica can both received 24 hour daylight/darkness. You can't don't that at the poles in Antarctica on a flat Earth.
