Comment on Checkmate, Round Earthers đ

If it were more like a flashlight, then flat earth day and night still works. So checkmate again.

A flashlight still lights up the whole room, even if itâs just pointed at one wall. Itâs not like half the room is totally dark, while the other half is totally bright.

Only because light bounces around.
If you do so outside, the light disappears into space.
