stigma against polygamy is the only reason that polygamy is bad, genius.

@Brendo

That's the point. He/she only has to state one way it's better and say 'yeah it's worse in other ways but that doesn't mean the Debate Resolution is wrong in the way I said it's true' and Con will have no angles left. This is a toxic Burden of Proof style baiting.

The fact this is even considered a debate is worrying for the IQ and even basic coherence of the voters of the US that voted this lunatic (who openly admitted he was one, the entire campaign) into power when he promised every single thing to screw the 'trailer trash' over starting the first month in power where he altered tariffs on mining that immediately hurt blue collar jobs in the US while helping the corporations hiring them profit regardless.

I liked that vote I did deserve this loss especially for my typos in R2 ruining the ending and me forgetting to bold and italics things on top of not realising the new users are more (not less) likely to prefer more rigid structure than freeform.

You clearly are friends with this votebomber and the mods are too lazy as fuck to do anything about it so let's just publicly say I mean what I said about dislike the cat reference and I guess the rest of the rap doesn't matter and get away with it all yeah? Yeah.

I am not doing anything wrong, what a coincidence omg did he vote against the opponent with the inverted bs reasoning that doesn't require one to read more than 2 words of the debate by typng ctrl+f 'cat'? ??????? What? Wow, what a magic thing!!!!

I am not having an issue with you. I do not hate the player, I hate the game. I thank you for not giving all 7 to Pro and understand the S&G was your error in comprehending rhymes but that my S&G actually was worse so whatever.

If you do take the 'even the self isn't knowable' angle in the next Round, just know that it's not at all easy to word or end up not biting your own tail in the process of negating everything as knowable.

The primary reason I accepted the debate was you were Pro to 'False' meaning the middle-ground is Con's alternate path to victory which you're disallowed to take and that would be how I'd defeat you unless you truly truly worded it very very well there may be a way to avoid that but I'm not going to reveal it to you.

@Wrick-It-Ralph

Solipsism is one step too far, I am actually a Nihilist who believes even the self isn't knowable. I will not explain my logic there until our debate is over as it's severely intricate and difficult to debate against and is a complete flip on your angle in that debate.

The difference between us is that I don't need to know something to believe it. I gamble on the truth. So I believe you're real enough, probably simulated and that I can't escape the simulation and may as well enjoy my time and therefore consider you real so I don't end up in an asylum or prison (or killed by my stupid decisions that ignored this reality, simulated or not).

I am also a Determinist, absolutely so yes.

That is easy to negate, it was us who domesticated them and if we have no free will to resist their charm they have no free will to trick us with in the first place.

Among the many semantic trolling methods you could use to win this debate,the best would be 'smartphone' version of 'smart' turning the opponent's arguments completely against them as well as saying 'they are more alert to smells and Con is saying that because humans are smarter in other ways that it makes them smarter whereas I say all ways of being smarter are valid and not mutually exclusive'.

There's 2 other paths to take given 'quick wit' and 'sharp' being very situational etc.

Would you like me to explain why it would be unfair for you to intentionally do this and avoid me accepting while gaining rating for the wins?

Also, Ramshutu is likely to vote against me no matter what and will say i sounded forced and pick 1 or 2 bars from you and say 'nice insults' and vote that way. :)

Actually you are. Look at the gold, silver and bronze medals regarding comment-count. Your points are rooted in anecdotal and baseless assertion that I use hyperbole while you aren't understating.

Countries either have this:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_affairs_(law_enforcement)

Which is literally the organisation that does what you want.

OR they have this:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_anti-corruption_agencies

Which is slightly less technically as they are cops not secret agents but other than the highest ranks of the police (which still have to answer to them) noone knows some of the AC officers' identities (they publicly are not listed in records as part of the initiation but the records are still existent just top secret). The highest ranking cops in these nations do know the highest ranking AC officers' due to relationships necessary for massive ops but as I said even knowing the highest ranks doesn't entitle then any true authority against AC if AC were to investigate them but they do have authority over AC regarding specifics of when to give them the "go" etc.

@Wrick-It-Ralph

They don't. AC is so above them that they actually go undercover and drink the beers under an alias. Trust me when I say you don't know what you're talking about here. It already exists and the other cops hate and fear AC.

@Melcharaz

It would not. On the other hand, that would remove any motive to debate well and feel proud of doing so on this site any more than anywhere else on the Internet and thus the website would cease to be visited by passionate debaters looking for a 1v1 environment that the Internet doesn't otherwise provide with such a great reward system for the skill as this one.

@Wrick-It-Ralph

Yeah, 'objectively' they will like you more as they're your buddies and unfortunately my buddies on here are the non-rap-fan crowd of philosophy or politics nerds etc.

I'd appreciate many votes of course, I want to impress many but fame is a drug and I'm aware what being lowkey helps me with in the long-run. I have been too famous on this site so far and am looking to get a medium reputation for a while.

@Wrick-It-Ralph

doesn't matter. Ramshutu has a grudge and will vote against me no matter what as he can get away with it on a 'troll debate'. Supadudz will likely do the same.

I will try to get others to like it, is all. Experiment with the new crowd. Either way, I enjoy these things, it's therapeutic to type.

@Ramshutu

It is better that you think you are tricking me as for some reason you bother to do things like give me the conduct vote here and such.

So, let's say you're right and I'm delusional as somehow you play nicer than you otherwise would since I shut up about it.

the thing is every single debate you voted against me lately, everyone else is voting for me on or neutral on. This is teaching me indeed, just not what you think it is.

I used to think it was my error in understanding voters but as the population of the site is increasing i realise now it's not just your inability to understand my logic but intentional voting against me and hatred of my ego that's motivating your votes.

Your flawed voting style may pass for now, and heck it may pass for the entirety of your time on the site, but when you ask 'so what?' 'what does that mean?' to diminish my brilliant rebuttals in every single debate I flawlessly debate and do the polar opposite for my opponent, it's kind of pathetic since it's blatant cherypicking and toxically motivated sabotage of a person with higher rating than you.

@Ramshutu

Before speaking to me about 'if this wasn't against the worst debater on the site, you would have lost.' look at the elo of all the debaters who lost to you and assess how 'tough' they all were. You thrive solely on picking on easy opponents whereas I experiment against the strong from time to time but purely out of efficiency, most of my opponents are weak at debating and I ensure to exploit their weaknesses throughout. I wouldn't have debated the same way against an opponent with better emotional resilience and debate-structure.

A vote would be highly appreciated, this is a properly entertaining debate where I believe I have done Sun Tzu's soul proud by how intensely accurately I applied the Art of War to this debate. This debate is quite literally the epitome of what Sun Tzu himself would have done against the opponent psychologically, I am very proud of myself and hope Tzu is too. <3
