What do flat Earthers think causes the "magical downward force"?

3. Gravity doesn’t exist - it’s a form of magnetism that works on non-metals.

2. Gravity does not exist - the Earth is accelerating upwards at 9.8 m/s2 which seems like gravity.

1. Gravity is real - but the Earth’s disk is very thick so the force is very nearly vertical.

Little-known cells might be key to human brain’s massive memory - The Washington Post

They don’t know - and not all of them agree that there is a “magical downward force”.

…and there are probably other ideas out there.

If (2) was the case - then the acceleration would have to be EXACTLY the same everywhere - and it’s not.

How can the citizens of Russia accept the enormous difference between people? The richest 500 Russians own more than the poorest 99.8% of the entire Russian population combined. Why don't we see any protests?

If (1) was the case - the center of gravity of the Earth would have to be so deep down to avoid gravity pointing off at an angle when moving towards the “rim” of the flat earth that the difference in height of a mountain would be negligible and we would get very, very nearly the same gravity everywhere.

The trouble with (1), (2) and (3) is that these cannot explain why the force of gravity varies with height above sea level…less at the tops of mountains - more in valleys.

If (3) was the case - you’d have the same problems as (1) - but this weir...

Why are people so rude to debt collector’s? I am one and I am so tired of being mistreated. We are under paid and then have to deal with the most ungrateful, and disrespectful people. We aren’t customer service. Don’t get mad at us because YOU owe.

4. Gravity doesn’t exist - things are held down by air pressure.

I have heard them say:
