They say gravity is a pulling force and holds the planets together in orbit, as well as the Moon and the Sun. When I was learning this in school I was like 'huh'.. no a pulling force would pull everything together.
My normie teacher and all the normies in the class were arguing no when something is orbiting it will balance out with the pulling. Then literal physicists professors and astronomy professors are arguing this. Noooo it won't. If something is in an orbit, it will still get pulled in just the same. Only instead of a straight line it will look like a spiral.
Therefore gravity between the planet and Moon and Sun and other planets has to be more than just a pulling force, there has to be pushing force in there too.
Anyway these fucking idiots STILL are arguing that no, its just a pulling force, balanced by orbital velocity. I tried explaining later in physics that no a velocity isn't a force.. a force is an acceleration. Their hypothesis of a pulling only force is an acceleration. A velocity doesn't counteract an acceleration.
Now imagine if they are this dead wrong on something this simple, how wrong they are on more complex things.
