Explain
How do Flerfs explain the tides, is there some weird reason? or is it the same as everyone else.

Flerfs don't try to explain anything, all they want to do is prove others are wrong, so they can think they know a special secret that others don't. They won't say what causes tides, they just say its not what those of us that live in reality say it is.

They're like criminal defense attorneys--their goal isn't to prove innocence/flat earth, it's simply to create a reasonable doubt of guilt/globe. Except flerfs can't get to the "reasonable" part.

Eric Dubay said it was simply the ‘rise and fall of the bosom of the mighty deep’.
Duh

How dare you bring a logical question to a group of people with illogical beliefs?!

It even takes me awhile to explain tides to physics students. There are some annoying explanations out there can be very difficult to get past (not flat earth related, however).

No sé, pero las Nikon P900 y P1000 las usan para grabar barcos perdiéndose en lontananza; lo de estudiar las mareas, sabiendo lo que les disgusta la gravedad, pues como que suelen esquivarlo.

Everyone knows tides are caused by
Chris Farley doing cannonballs into the oceans from heaven, tsunamis too.

As my wife answers everything she can’t explain, “God can do whatever he wants whenever he wants.” Ugh!

Water always finds its level... Eventually.
That's what tides are, water looking for its level. Until it does, it has the ability to freely move about.

It's water finding its level, and then finding its other level, and so on...

the Rupes Nigra (North pole) is surrounded by four large channels or indrawing seas. These four rivers separated four polar landmasses and converged into a singular, massive central whirlpool (or vortex) surrounding the rock. That's why there are no tides in large bodies of water, because they're not connected to any ocean.

It’s the penguins that guard the ice wall hitting the water with their flippers.

Water finds its level, but tides is some not level buldge of water travelling around the world

Tide goes in, tide goes out; you can't explain that
