Yes. Look at the poles drifting. The earth flips (literally) on a LONG schedule. We could be at the start of a flip, it would fit the schedule. That wouldn’t be man made (but sure as hell can feel that way, and fear is the best emotion to capitalize on)…



I assume you mean the geomagnetic poles which have always drifted and do occassionally flip and not the poles of the axis of rotation which experiences axial precession.
