Explain tides

submitted by Her0n to EarthIsAFlatPlane 5 monthsNov 29, 2023 20:47:15 ago (+4/-0)     (EarthIsAFlatPlane)

If the earth is flat, what are the tides and how are they created?

tides are the great sea turtle breathing.

TIDES ARE FLAT!

The moon is flat! Can’t you see? It’s literally right there, like a big pizza pie!

Every 12 hours the Cosmic Turtle (on who's back the flat earth is mounted) does a step forward through space and so the earth tilts.

The giant mole man that holds the earth up rocks it back and forth.

Explain the pacific ocean being 12 ft higher than the Atlantic ocean

Larger ocean, more water to pull on with gravitational forces.

Uhhh I mean, more great sea turtles in the pacific, just ask @augustineofhippo2

Yeah man, more turtles! Duh, everyone knows that!

That doesn't make any sense. Larger ocean is higher?

Yes, there's literally more surface area of water in the Pacific than the Atlantic. Thus, there is more drastic an effect with tidal flux.

You also need to look at the constriction of flow from the Pacific to the Atlantic thanks to the placement of the Americas and the wind currents. The Pacific ocean is also less dense than the Atlantic, which keeps the flow halted or slowed between the oceans.

So a larger surface rises higher? Isn't the effect going to be stronger on a smaller object?

There's more to it than just the tidal pull from the sun and moon.

My previous comment to you brings up the flow constriction from Atlantic to pacific past the southern tip of South America. Add in the effect the prevailing Easterlies keeping the water from flowing faster into the pacific and it leads to the pacific being at a higher elevation than the Atlantic

Sounds like you're just full of shit, actually

[ - ] Her0n [op] 0 points 5 monthsDec 1, 2023 03:45:45 ago (+0/-0)

You could look it up for yourself.

You asked me for an explanation and then give me shit about my answer.

How about you figure it out for yourself with actual research instead of holding your hand out for truth.

Which kike website should I read?

[ - ] Her0n [op] -2 points 5 monthsDec 1, 2023 04:59:27 ago (+0/-2)

Flat earthers are kikes too.

You could look up all the information individually and think for yourself. It'll take time and effort, or you could look up a video that fits your preconceived bias.
