Actually no Flat Earther that i know would say something so silly, you've just assumed how they think with your thoughts, so then thinking you can debunk it.
Classic sirawmanning although without the trolling, points for that then.
i have seen hours of flat earth videos. and if it comes to the sun circling over the world, it's always the same model the people refer to.
and this model is disproved by what leevee said or what i tried to point out here:
assume the world is flat and the sun is like 5000km above the world, circling around.
if the sun straight over you, it's certainly a 90 degree angle.
if the sun is very far away, like the on the other side of the world, it should be a 15-20 degree angle.
in every situation in every day, the angle would always be between such numbers, 15 - 90 degree.
but i am pretty sure that everyone has seen the sun in lower angles to the world. when the sun goes down it is at like 2 or 3 degree and then "goes away" or "goes under". no matter in which of those cases you believe, it's not possible to achieve a 3 degree angle in a flat world. therefore the assumption is disproved.
