Hym "Doug! DOUG! DOUGLAS MURRAY! Do another munk debate! I want to see you do one on whether or not you can trust the NON-MAINSTREAM media. Do one on the Peterson-Sphere! Can we trust them? Are they using the strategies of the Chinese communist party to gain a political advantage they aren't capable of gaining on the merits of their position? Why are they condemning Biden for cooperation with China when they are literally doing the thing that China does to Taiwan? Doug!? Where's Doug? Hey! Do one about whether or not we can trust the unelected non-mainstream media that is actively using their platform to engage in economic coercion and threatening to use it again in the future! Are they trustworthy Doug? Because they decry communism but... They are doing a communism.... Doug? I... I don't thing he can hear me.... DOUG!"

Person A: I'm going to tell you why Mega-Shooters X is better than Super Platformer 9!
Person B: Okay. Why?
Person A: Err... Umm....
It just is, okay?!
Person B: If you're going to start a debate like that, at least have some good arguments.
Don't be a baseless debater.

I wish watching debates was a more prevalent pass time in our society. Most people aren't sitting around talking about the debates they watched recently. It's a shame schools don't really focus more on teaching kids how to properly formulate arguments. Of course there is debate in highschool but where I grew up that was all extracurricular.

1. An argument that starts somewhat constructive but devolves into a
dramatic display of emotional bravado.
2. An argument where no real practical difference is available at the ideological level,
so the crux of the "debate" lies solely on
how much or how little said agreed ideal needs to be applied as the percieved "disagreement".
3. An argument where there isn't any real constructive debate happening,
but rather a battle of egos, pride, and vanity.
4. An argument where attacking your opponent's character, past, family,
or friends as well as name calling or claims of not caring
take precedence over a practical view of the real issues at hand.
5. A euphemism for ranting about, disliking, or even hating something
whilst simultaneously lacking any constructive criticism.

"Mom and Dad were having a Republican Debate about proper directions on the
road trip so I knew I wasn't going to be able to sleep on the way."
"We tried talking to address our relationship problems but it just ended up
escalating into a Republican Debate every time"
"The irony was that they agreed overall but would get heated about
the particulars quite like a Republican Debate."
"He said he loved the USA more than me. I disagreed and told him I loved the USA more than him.
It was a good ol' Republican Debate."
"I argued the subtle beauty of IPAs while she preferred dark stouts
and this seemingly simple mutual love of beer yet disagreement about flavors
could quickly turn into a heated Republican Debate".
"I tried to be rational about my disapproval of her boyfriend's behavior but
ended up escalating into a Republican Debate over it."

A form of debate far inferior to policy debate, though it IS a form of debate, unlike congress. It's like policy debate but less fast and there's less shit you can run.
