Is Our Earth FLAT and Motionless, Not a Spinning Globe?

Was scrolling down facebook and saw an interesting video about some guy claiming to be working in Antarctica. He was talking about “Sky Ice” blue ice that is not like regular ice, but incredibly cold that freezes anything that comes into contact with it and instead of melting it just eventually dissipates into a gas. He was also saying there is a massive wall of this, something like what the flat earthers talk about and that it takes incredibly resilient equipment to drill into the stuff, which he says eventually grows back. It sounded like some of this sky ice ice was falling from the sky. (the firmament)? It was interesting enough that even if it wasn’t true it sounded cool AF and would have been awesome in some kind of sci fi movie. But perhaps, what he was saying was true.

Dubay thinks he's controlled opposition. He avoids the strongest arguments and puts forward the preposterous notion that the earth is always rising and that explains why things fall.

Why is that notion preposterous? If we're discounting all mainstream science then isn't anything possible? Why do you think things fall? Can gravity exist on a flat earth?

Things fall because they are denser than the medium through which they are falling. There's no need for gravity as an explanation, unless you're trying to prop up a heliocentric system that has the earth as a spinning ball that sea water (curving over the ball) doesn't fly off of as it spins.

Tides are perfectly correlated with the positions of the Sun and Moon. This is only possible with gravity but flat-earthers deny that gravity exists.
