As they are causally disconnected, this is no paradox. The ones which are causally connected are the ones who preserve the order. Use the diagram in your picture and try to find a reference system in which 2 causally connected events A $\rightarrow$ B appear as B $\rightarrow$ A. You'll find that that observer must travel at $v>c$. | |
