I issued a challenge debate towards you.

Hi Type1

The reason I voted you down is clearly stated in my RfD.

You were claiming liberals and conservatives have basically the same ideology, with some differences attributed to being “a little more liberal or classical”. You made little attempt to illustrate that those differences are attributable to those reasons (and to be honest you didn’t even really provide any demonstration that the two “share ideology” either).

To win, you needed to do the following:

Define what a bit more “classical” was
Define what a bit more “liberal” was
Compare ideological similarities, preferably with specific examples (you sort of did this, but broadly and barely)
Show differences that are raised can be placed in the first two categories.

As you only did 0.5 of those 4 things, you lost this debate.

@Type1

A lot of votes are because you have a history of forfeiting debates. The fact that you didn't forfeit is the reason why we tied that other debate and why your only behind by 4 points this time. Your getting better.

@Alec

The votes are always against me for bullshit reasons.

@Type1

I don't publicly complain when there are votes against me. You shouldn't either.

@Ramshutu

You are clearly biased. Con literally thinks that any little difference whatsoever between two members of the same overall ideology makes them a different ideology. Making such a claim both constitutes poor conduct and an excessively shitty argument.
People like you shouldn't be allowed to vote because you are just an anti-intellectual douche and a troll. You are voting against me even though it is clear how intellectually dishonest my opponent was just because you are a partisan shill and nutsack gobbling dumpster goblin.
