Deny Ignorance Debate Challenges - Maxmars - 05-25-2024
Debates often range in execution depending on the nature of the premise being explored... there are the "now what" debates, or "affirmation and denial" debates, some debates evolve around standing cultural norms, social conventions (political or "moral,") ; others are purely conspiratorial (with story exposition and evaluation,) or "observational and perspective" disharmonies.
In each, there is an implicit agreement... the premise is sacrosanct. Without this agreed understanding, the premise can shift, robbing the debate of purpose. The exercise itself, like a sport, means each debater doesn't "yield" their position, they each do not accept the opposite argument as ultimately 'convincing' and 'valid.' It has nothing to do with what they personally believe... it is a "game to be won."
In order to refine our interest (which I am presuming exists) I will submit a list of 10 potential debate premises. I will also attempt to make them into a poll so members can casually declare what they think more interesting or relevant to them. There are over 400 of us here, and while many (if not most) do not explore the world of debate, I can only hope that the few seconds it takes to participate won't be too great a burden...
(Of course this may be complicated by the architecture of the forums and technical matters... but have a look see...
- The rich are responsible for the poor
- Commerce in capitalism - the real problem
- Banks are all "fiat" and no substance
- Privacy is sovereignty
- Cryptozoology is an "entertainment" ploy
- History is being erased in real time
- The COVID "event" was not about our health
- The "Media" defines all social problems for its' benefit
- K-12 Education has failed to produce competent citizens
- When you're 21 your still not an "adult"
Your feedback will be greatly appreciated....
