Where is the evidence for this fact? Solely in your head?
Which fact? The number of people near the equator or the fact that the celestial poles are in opposite directions from each other?
If the first, I just added up the populations of Indonesia, Kenya, DRC, and Ecuador, then rounded up because I didn't feel like trying to figure out the population of just the northern part of Brazil. It's just an estimate.
If the second... honestly I don't know what else to tell you. Believing that the celestial poles don't line up is almost as bad as other flat earthers claiming that Polaris can be seen from Australia, or that the South Celestial Pole doesn't exist, or some other head-stuck-in-sand nonsense.
