I'd rather not
ritual beheading
do you have ligma?
From what I heard it was terminal
I'll take the pro-removal side of the debate
no
oh, so you agree with me that alex jones should've been removed
Debating random people, who take an opposing view for the sake of it, is like sex with a prostitute
how so
Cause what's the point?
I don't get off on it
You dont see the point in debating ideas?
I don't see the point in debating someone who doesn't hold the ideas they're upholding
At that point, it's just sophistry practice
How is the actual point of view relevant to a debate that's focused solely on ideas?
The idea is the point of view?
Not neccessarily, if my point of view is that gay people should be given rights, but I argue against someone on the idea that gay people should have rights, my point of view doesnt align with my idea
Yeah, and I'm saying it's pointless to do that. The other person is now arguing against a strawman, or a hollow version of the topic, and no one's mind is changed. Verbal masturbation.
Thats under the assumption that the person arguing the opposition is not attempting to make the strongest argument from the other side
🤷🏻
Ok, so lets assume for argument sake that the person arguing the view contrary to their own is not employing a strawman as their argument, would you still say that it is not worth arguing with them
That's just practicing sophistry. Either you have good ideas, or you don't.
Don't 'test tactics' or w/e
Just have a valid opinion
