I find it hilarious that they call us detached from reality. How about "Detached from the Matrix?" Where do you stand on this chart?

I have yet to see a flat earther answer this simple question:
How does the sun light up the underside of clouds during a sunrise/sunset ?
Likewise, how is it that it's daylight in some places but dark in others, at the same instant?
Their dumb response is "the sun is a lot closer to the earth than we think it is." Alright so if that is the case, it is still far up into the sky that it should still be visible across the "plane" of the earth. To account for the time differences, the sun would have to be moving like a needle on a record. Yet if that was the case, it would need to speed up more when it is summer in the southern hemisphere. This MIGHT explain how the sun is always visible during the summer in the north pole, but it cannot explain how the sun is always visible during the summer in Antarctica if it is indeed a giant ring around the perimeter. It also does not account for a magnetic North without a corresponding magnetic South. Nothing about "flat Earth" makes sense, but they claim that if you just vegetate and go brain dead long enough, it'll all come together and "make sense" for you. NOTHING about it makes sense. The spherical moon has been visible to us since the beginning of time, and spherical planets have been visible to telescopes for centuries. Yet apparently it's all an illusion because NASA was founded about 70 years ago by a Nazi. Yeah, right.

Believe it or not, I went full anon on the flat earth shit about 10 years ago. I came at it from a neutral/believing point of view (to remove my bias) and taken in isolation, a number of the hypothesis actually have some merit (and by merit I mean the results are ambiguous), it's just when you string more than two together it falls apart like an over-used tea-bag.
That's why I tried to condense all that into one question that would stump them.
To this day not a single person has ever managed to come up with a theory as to how the clouds can be lit from underneath - unsurprisingly :)
I don't care what the answer is, all I know is that my Spirit Level works on both Earths 🤣👍
Perspective from the vanishing point. The vanishing point is lower on the horizon than the clouds.
I’m always interested in how globe earthers try and explain how they don’t feel traveling at Mach 830,000. Or how they believe their own two eyes can see “light years” away.
You said it yourself, that's just a question of perspective. It's not actually lower
Nope. But it is far enough away that it’s at the horizon- which can light up the underside of clouds. This is dumb. You don’t get it.
I'm pretty sure you don't understand that light travels in straight lines.
Regardless of how far away the Sun is, it's still above the clouds.
