Because photons are a wave, not a ball going in a straight line. Light bounces off the ball to the mirror and then into your eyes.

the phenomenon is people thinking mirrors exist as agents that see.

If you were smart you'd realize that I already answered by insulting you: the answer isn't the mirror. It's you. The image in the mirror is a projection, it does not invert anything. Just like you're projecting your own imbecility unto others.

It's a funny social phenomenon.
If this got posted on 4chan, you would instantly assume it's bait.
But if it's posted on [other site] in this case TikTok, you assume that they are actually retarded and don't understand how mirrors work

the question is why does it not invert also up and down.

This isnt a real explanation, its just a trick that lust "mirrors" anything in front of the mirror. Of course it makes sense but WITHOUT THE PAPER!
Care to explain why the mirror would mirror any light from the egg when its blocked by a paper? No, you cant, so all you do is act smug as if you know better

>> No.15527105

that's not all mirrors. when i look at my reflection in a silver spoon, i am upside down. therefore, it has something to do with the curvature of the reflective surface.

There is nothing to explain

i don't know anything about optics but i guess that objects have a reflective property driven from photons projection that are "captured" during the reflection process, so it doesn't matter if you place an object behind another solid object they both release photons that are interpret in our eye/brain.
i barley learned physics so this explanation is purely intuitive and probably wrong but it makes sense to me
