Polar Heat, Equatorial Cold - Climatic Effects of Inverted Global Temperatures

How does inverting global temperatures affect climate? Here exists a fantasy world similar to earth in all important ways. Except, however, that global temperatures have been flipped; it is coldest at the equator and warmest at the [geographic] poles.

After reading Climate Modelling 101, though I understand the basics, I am very much ignorant. Would there be any unexpected consequences from inverting temperatures? Obviously, one could simply flip the logic of the aforementioned blog around. But I suspect there may be more to it, as things like the effect of sea ice on climate are not discussed.

What are the climatic effects of inverted global temperatures? Especially those which cannot be extrapolated from the blog. Please explain giving scientific context.

REGARDING SPACE: There's an unknown phenomenon beyond the planet's atmosphere, existing like a ring around the equator. This phenomenon allows some visible light to pass through, but deflects non-visible light from the equator, channelling it towards the poles. Most of the sun's energy enters the atmosphere at the poles and then behaves normally. Under the planet's atmosphere no unusual phenomenon exist.

REGARDING LIGHT: The light which reaches the equator is cold. Visible light carries 42% of solar energy to earth. The phenomenon thus bends non-visible light, and some visible light, towards the poles.

P.S. Apologies for those who have answered musing about planetary tilt; my fault for initial incompleteness. Questions are hard. I'm interested in what happens to the climate, NOT about anything that may justify how the poles are warm and equator cold. The scientific part is about unexpected climactic effects in this hypothetical.
