Description

Please argue in the spirit of which the debate was intended, and I will do the same.

Full resolution. "HItler's main motivation for the holocaust was most likely not because of his racism"

While I won't overtly forbid kritics on this topic, let's avoid ones where we don't address the topic at hand, such as arguing the holocaust did not happen, because it would harm the spirit of this debate.

Removing your vote so that you have the option to recast it, as you clearly had a typo in the point selection.

Reason:
Con wins primarily, by virtue of their better argument.

But one must also take into account Pro's lazy use of the space key.........Pimplies Q for example.

And their ultimate forfeiture.

@Incel-chud

That is not at all protocol.

@Mharman

Thanks, good job analyzing the debate. I think you made some mistakes but we can't always separate bias from our analysis and I can tell you tried real hard. Thanks

@RationalMadman

I wrote the resolution in the description. The title of the debate is not the resolution and anyone who accepts a debate is required to read the descruption

@zedvictor4

Just delete your vote and make a new one. If you can’t delete it anymore, ask a site moderator to.

@Benjamin

Sorry again. Didn't apologize to the right person.

-->
@Mharman

Sorry...Forgot to tick the Con button.

-->
@Mharman

Fair enough

-->
@Novice

right now I'm only looking at the tournament debates

@Mharman

Are you willing to vote for biological women and psychology as well?

For me it's a clear win for Ben.
Even if arguments are tied, ben wins by far on grammar/spelling and Ben takes conduct because of forfeit

I'll vote in a bit

Only one round was forfeited, so I'm not calling this one an FF

This has becomes ridiculous to read, to be honest. I have no clue how to even vote on a debate like this as they both have a legitimate reason to say their resolution is the real one.

Con and Pro have two very different ideas about what the debate is so both are winning their current resolution at the moment.

@Benjamin

That is not the resolution of the debate. UT is the title

-->
@Svidrigailov

Glad we both agree on that topic

-->
@Incel-chud

I'll take a pass on that one.

-->
@Svidrigailov

Debate me on men peeing sitting down

-->
@Svidrigailov

It's click bait, the voting period is only one week so people need an excuse to click on it.

-->
@Incel-chud

I think this debate was poorly named. The debate title and your resolution seem like two very different statements to me.

I just realized when I copy and pasted from libre office, this site erased some spaces and words are cobbled together. Sorry

@Benjamin

I am working on it, currently trying to fit a 20k character argument into a 8k debate format.

-->
@Lunatic

thanks

I'll keep an eye on this and make sure to advertise this when its time to vote.
