Description

Serious debates. Any racist comments, trolls and forfeits result in a loss of conduct.

Ok agree to disagree.

Look at R1 and I have defined the terms. Conditionally wrong is not fundamentally wrong.

Yes conditionally and fundamentally wrong. Unless you can explain what's meant by "conditional", what is the condition? Too vague and not clear.

@Mall

I quit the site and gave you an advantage, but you are still proving that ALM is conditionally wrong? I thought I had given you the definition.

I challenge you to justify this debate's existence. In what way is it valuable?

This debate misses the point entirely. Nobody has a bone to pick with "All Lives Matter" because it is a factually incorrect statement. They have a bone to pick with it because it is a counter-phrase to the Black Lives Matter movement, which aims to address systemic injustices. In other words, within the context it is used, "All Lives Matter" is a phrase intended to shut down attempts to fix social ills.
