Heres one for the people who arent trolling and believe the earth is actually flat - we cant see a horizon with a naked eye unless you are somewhere with hundreds of kilometers within your panoramic view. Even then, you still can't see a horizon standing flat footed at no altitude.
If you fly in a plane, you can see a horizon looking down toward ground, and only towards ground. Even then, your eye is not trained to see a horizon, so you'd be lucky to notice it
second, you live within the atmosphere, we are not standing on top of the earth to be able to see if its round or flat. Atmosphere contains terrain, its pressurised, there is climate, there are tides.
Third, if there earth was flat, explain how a magnet works.. It reacts to north and south magnetic poles(i.e positive and negative magnetic force), if the earth was flat, that would mean both magnetic poles within earth would be null, a magnet wouldn't stick to any surface, it would be just a piece of metal
fourth, atmospheric pressure, if the earth was not round, why the fuck do we have a core within the center of the earth which is as hot as 6000 degrees celsius(about 11800 degrees fahrenheit for the amercunts still using imperial bullshit)? Something can not maintain heat at that tempurature without some sort of pressurisation, and atmospheric pressure is proven. Not to mention the key within that word "spheric", it wouldn't be called atmo"shperic" if the earth wasnt round(i.e a sphere) lol
and obviously last, but not least, gravity, although not proven 100%, and is still a theory, if we had no gravity within our atmosphere, we'd have no ozone layer, and no one would be able to maintain a weighted step. I dont need to continue about gravity, its been a theory which has not been studied because it makes sense for hundreds of years
