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

I have heard them say:

…and there are probably other ideas out there.

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

Is Trump the greatest spiritual leader since Jesus?

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

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

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

State of Play Confirmed for 4th June, 40+ Minutes of PS5 Games - Push Square

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

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

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.

If you get a chance to have sex with either Kajal Agarwal or Samantha, who would you choose and why?

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

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.
