LOL. you sound like my wife. I mentioned this phenomena earlier today, I said to her 'how does the ocean stick to the bottom of a ball while birds and balloons can float and glide above it?' and she goes 'birds have muscles' and i said 'so then a bird could lift the whole ocean' and she goes 'no, the ocean is too big for a bird to lift' and i said 'but it could, if it's wings are stronger than the forces of gravity that keep the water stuck to the earth, it must have more strength in its wings than all the waters have around the entire southern hemisphere' LOL
The reason you can't see this is because you're actually operating on a flat plane model. You don't even realize it. The flat model would absolutely confirm a bird can't lift an ocean. I'm actually debunking you BY USING THE GLOBE.
As soon as you put the globe into it, you have things operating upside down relative to each other. Yet you think they still do exactly the same thing on each pole? If that were true, in your mind there'd be no coriolis effect and the stars would rotate clockwise on both hemispheres.
You also insist weight and density work the same way, with no opposing conditions present, being on the OPPOSITE SIDE.
Most of this will likely go over your head. Here's a colorful picture.
