why do the seasons such as winter exist accordin to this model? Ive seen the vid that explains gravity n thats plausible but so many holes pop up in a flat earth argument n I never see yall actually answer them just dance around the question with 'u been fooled'

The sun orbits around the earth. It changes the diameter of its orbit to cause it to be larger, or smaller, and hence nearer or closer to the earth to cause the seasons.
Of course, you can make your own opinion of whether the earth orbits around the sun or the sun orbits around the earth. In other words, the sun "shifts gears" to change the size of its orbit, which causes the seasons.
The sun's path is not consistent throughout the year. At the equinoxs, the sun travels directly over the equator. During the northern summer, the sun orbits closer and closer to the North Pole. During the northern winter, the orbit grows bigger and the sun gets farther from the north pole. Hope this helped.
