Contrast the amount of direct sunlight received by an area near the equator and a same sized area near the South Pole. They receive the same amount of direct sunlight throughout the year, it’s just divided up differently.

The area at the equator receives more direct sunlight than the area at the pole because Earth’s tilt doesn’t affect the area at the equator.

The poles receive more direct sunlight than the area around the equator because they receive 24 hours of daylight at times during the summer.
