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

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

I have heard them say:

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.

Scientists create a two-dimensional carbon material eight times stronger than graphene - Earth.com

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

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

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.

Have you ever gone to a porn theater with your wife?

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

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

…and there are probably other ideas out there.

Has anyone had a romance scammer start messaging them on Quora? How do you know if the person is scamming you? What do you do?

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

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