Description

No information

Sorry, meant to add the arguments vote on top of the other 2 but I doubt severely that the one I voted for is going to lose. If you do lose let me know and I'll get the admin to add the 3 points. Otherwise I do not want to hassle him.

ok, thanks

In the future, link this in your debates, it enables people to screen your URL in a safe manner.

I use URL-shorteners. Idk, it is an old habit of mine from DDO.

One thing I don't like about the sourcing of Con is it requires trust. He could be linking to porn or a virus for all we know based on the URL.

This is the first debate where Type1 has genuinely impressed me even though he forfeited as per usual. He's improving, I like it.

Edit in "Observation": My opponent asserts that Fascism is a right wing form of government*

However you want lol.

@Type1

What about the formatting? How does it go?

-->
@DieserDeutscheTyp

Yes, I will accept you as an opponent. Just post whenever you're ready, my schedule is loose. I will initiate the first round some time today.

-->
@Type1

Okay, I guess that is reasonable. How does your schedule look like? Would you be willing to accept me as your opponent?

-->
@DieserDeutscheTyp

Also you can argue that it's left wing or that it's neither, or even that it can be both. As long as you're arguing against the notion that it is right wing.

@DieserDeutscheTyp

In my view the whole burden of proof thing is usually just a cop out from defending your position so in most cases (such as this one) I would say burden of proof is equal.

Edit: Left-wing ideology*

I would be willing to accept this debate, but I would like to know where the burden of proof lies. Is it the contender's BoP to prove that fascism is a right-wing ideology, or can the contention purport that the ideology is neither left or right? That would be my take on this topic.
