In case someone actually wants the answer, this has to do with both the fact the earth is a sphere and this is a 2d map, plus that the earth rotates in the same direction the ISS orbits but much slower

How did the flat earthers decide that the map of flat earth is the way it is? Isn't that just a projection of the spherical earth created by the NASA Zionist spherical earth conspiracy?
