Round 1
According to statistics, 89% of right wingers are literally Hitler. Little did you know, the Nazis developed top secret mind control technology. It started when Nazi scientists began contemplating "how many lies can we fit in one human brain? And are Aryans capable of holding more lies than the Jew?"
To make a long story short, they developed the technology to transmit lies directly into the brain, this could be used both to deceive and give one the means of deception. One day, Hitler volunteered to have all the lies in his own mind transmitted into an American soldier the Nazis captured. They intended to program him to fight for the reich, but something went terribly wrong. He immediately gained the same exact capacity for brobdingnagian levels of dishonesty and white supremacy as Hitler himself. After the war he returned to America, had many Nazi babies...and thus, the modern American conservative was born....
The statistic is a lie or has to be proven. "Literally Hitler" is misusing the term 'literally' and ignores the Jews, disabled and homosexuals who are right-wing who cannot possible be Nazis unless they want to end their own kind.
Then, we must see evidence of the 'halfwits' that isn't subjective (because if it's subjective it could be you being a halfwit and not comprehending their ingenuity or something else entirely where you're just wrong anyway) and we must see evidence of the bigotry being right-wing as opposed to some right-wingers being bigoted out of all of them.

*******************************************************************
>Reported Vote: Ramshutu // Mod action: Not Removed
>Points Awarded: 4 points to Con for arguments and conduct
>Reason for Decision: Conduct to con for forfeit.
Pros opening post contained no argument; but a series of absurd claims that I believe were either trolling or a failed attempt at comedy cons response was short and to the point, but basically pointed this out, and specifically that pro offered no evidence. Default BOP was not met by pro, so con wins on arguments.
>Reason for Mod Action: This debate is a full forfeit. FF debates are not moderated unless the voter voted for the conceding side. This did not occur, so this vote is not actionable.
************************************************************************
Whoops!
This is a full-forfeit debate; I should not have removed your vote. Feel free to re-vote using your old RFD, which you can find below in the removal notice. Apologies.

>Reported Vote: Argent_Tongue // Mod action: Removed
>Points Awarded: 4 points to Con for arguments and conduct
>Reason for Decision: Pro failed to meet the BoP. Because of this, argument points awarded to Con. Sources are irrelevant, and therefore a tie. Spelling and grammar were also comparable in stature, and also resulted in a tie. Con maintained his obligation and honored his commitment to the debate. Therefore, conduct and etiquette points were awarded to Con.
>Reason for Mod Action: The voter fails to survey the main arguments and fails to weigh those arguments to reach a decision. To cast a sufficient vote, the voter should explain *why* and *how* Pro met their BOP by surveying and weighing the main arguments.
