Manipulating the format, rules, or flow of a debate to guarantee a tactical advantage or predetermined outcome. This includes filibustering, demanding impossible standards of proof from one side only, controlling the microphone time, or constantly redefining the topic. It's not debating to find truth; it's debating to win a performance, where the stage itself is sloped in your favor.
Example: "The moderator was accused of bending the debate by only following up on the challenger's points with aggressive fact-checks, while letting the incumbent's vague platitudes slide. The debate wasn't a fair exchange; it was a controlled demolition of one candidate's platform." Bending Debate
