No, Reddit has no functionality for the creator of a threat to award a 'best responder' and you are entirely allowed to post agreement with the original poster and to purely advise them or troll with some sarcasm.

In DI you are only allowed to debate against the original poster or to counter what another said in a direct manner in favor of the poster's position.

You may have meant Yahoo Answers or Quora but no, there the 'best answer' is not in any way necessarily in disagreement with the original poster but I admit on DI some people use the format wrong and award best 'persuade me' response to someone agreeing with them.

You can now go ahead and tell me how you were correct in saying DI is not a debating platform. It offers two different 1v1 formats.

I linked to his DA account. Here is his DI account:

Let me just screenshot where the admin here admits lusting after a debate type that DI invented (one of the two that it invented entirely on its own, the other being "Formalish")


Now let's observe where the user who suggested it got their idea from.

I will paste two links that make it blatant that it's both a DI regular who suggested it and that it's from DI he got the idea.

DI can entirely be called a debating website. Not slightly, not barely, entirely. It also invented entirely unique forms of debating that the admin here has said he'd like to mimic so please do think before you type

Dart (debateart.com) is off to a great start
DArC is doing well because it mimicked what the clientele already proved it liked. I will be interested in seeing what it invents on its own.

He's extremely Capitalist/Right-Wing (economic right, not social).

He's moderate socially.

I should get credit for being totally aware the whole time. I became a prominent member of Di as did Whiteflame as soon as we could.

And no we in no shape or form joined together, I actually had totally quit DDO and got bored of the site and DI was advertising on CD which caught my eye.

WF and I can claim actual superiority over the rest of you in this. We both genuinely (in totally separate paths of getting there) became regulars of a debating-specialist community as DDO came to its ruins.

DADC is not catchy at all is the issue.

DArC (Darcy) sounds attractive imo.

I think you have an idea that I think Fascism is inherently evil.

I think it's corrupt and malignant as I'm a globalist but I do not (at all) think that Fascism itself is evil. 

It is evil (every single time) in practise but so is Communism so that's a non sequitur.

Airmax has a legal contract (he isn't paid but he signed something legal, arranged something official with lawyers) that binds him to Juggle in loyalty of some sort. He cannot EVER reveal the 'how' to what you are asking. I know this for a fact.

I noticed the other person pointing it you and you asking for suggestions of the exact wording. I was only trying to help and understand how much time it can take to code in something properly especially since this isn't your source of income (or at least isn't yet).

Just to help you. A good term for a debate that's in 'argumentation' is 'currently debating' this would please speakers of all languages who speak English as a second language and would also please English native speakers as it makes clear, exact sense about the phase.

It's not just his tariffs that's just the most undeniably 'true fascist' ACT he's DONE.

When ti comes to attitude to foreign officials and his dealings with them and the results of his 'negotiations' with them it's extremely like how Fascists did things; I am better than your nation and here to make a deal to not have to eventually dominate you against your will. This was entirely the spirit of his visit to the UK. It was putrid in all senses of the term,

Trump is a cretin who I only admire for having some backbone when it comes to Sharia Law Tyranny and his ability to combat Putin despite Putin blackmailing him with the fake social media account scandal that got him (him being Trump) elected.

I could go into detail about how I just highlighted why his tariffs are fascistic as they consistently victimise blue collar workers at the benefit of white collar workers but it's going to fall on brainwashed ears.

You're all very clearly hardcore Trump supporters and I don't need to convince you of anything. Keep thinking he's a saint and enjoy not being lower class because if you were, you'd understand why he's a devastating force.

Star Wars OT movies are better than the movies after.
The only movie of the 6 I thought was terribly done was the first one made (the fourth in the storyline) etc. So no, I don't agree.

The best 'three' or 'batch' I agree is not this new nonsense with Kylo Ren etc. that's far too little story and far too much action. The best were the second-made trilogy (first in the storyline).

For me, the second one (the one where dooku cuts Anakin's arm etc) was so phenomenal at showing the corrupt side of the Jedis. In all movies other than the Clone Wars, it's never EVER made apparent that the Jedis are the original tyrants and oligarchs and that the term 'rebel' for the 'other side' in later movies is so incredibly Ironic. 

Jedis are fundamentally Sharia Law and the Ottoman Empire in ethos but an alternate version where impregnating is outlawed etc as they are able to recruit.

Sith are fundamentally Stalin's Communism combined with some anarcho-communist idealists among them (Anakin always was one deep down and this is what inspired him to turn on Palpatine in the end).

Okay explain the poem to me, I just realised it regularly rhymes the middle with the ending of a lin which visually confused me but even then it's not constant. Anyways, explain the poem to me and why you used 'walking' twice etc. The thing is I don't process this kind of art well but with raps at least poorly written raps can be incredibly pleasing to the ear.

I am actually a person who doesn't see Israel as the fascist regime in the Israel vs Hamas+PLO dynamic so his support of Israel I will leave aside entirely as this has been his sole non-fascist action thus far in a strange way but Israel is a hybrid system. There has never ever been a nation that's the system Israel is using in politics. It is in some ways Fascist and yet overall not Fascist at all, in some ways socially Liberal and yet in others severely Conservative etc. I will leave that debate aside.

Trump's slogan is Fascist. Yes, to advocate the idea that your nation is going to become greater than other nations and not greater along with them is fundamentally the very basis of Fascist ideology. Then we look at how he is operating in his relations to other officials, in how he is legislating tariffs here and cutting tariffs there as he pleases. The Tariffs he raises are ones that help the rich and hurt blue collar workers such as what he did with I think it was Iron but maybe was Steel etc.

Anyway, then we look at how he is altering legislation or intending to. Everything revolves around making businesses more attracted to USA and yet he is advocating the single highest corporate tax or maybe not single but among the highest in the history of presidents. There's so much subtlety to his Fascism that even left wing media isn't focusing on it as it's not sensational.

I could go more into his raw mentality in how he approaches any situation where there is immigrants or foreigners not residing in USA involved but that's purely Nationalism which is a part of Fascism and isn't Fascist in itself.

I realised that wisdom didn't rhyme after I wrote it but since this is poetry and as is evident from others here it isn't as strict as a 'rap; thread in rhyme scheme I felt I'd just leave it. 

The problem with poems like yours where there's not strictness at all with the rhyme scheme is I'm left feeling anyone could have come up with that as opposed to it being highly skilled but I guess in art that's alright as the official judge panel in this thread is basically no one.

When you are raised ignorant and to enjoy your ignorance and pride yourself on your 'passion' as opposed to cool-headed rationality, you end up supporting a Fascist and focusing on the fact he's not a Nazi in order to deny the truth that he's still a non-Nazi fascist.

Note, this is not at all to hate on this site, this is a heartfelt poem of how I analyse what has occurred.

It's a shame in my eyes the way we disguise our wisdom,
It's a game made of lies; intertwined misconceptions,
Watch a brain or a mind decline with intention,
Celebrate demise of the 'why'-like questions,
Ask people to move from a site to set of suggestions,
They pick the familiar one and that's fine but may I just mention,
It's this mentality that, like gravity, pulls humanity away from invention,
Enslaved to the family's bad habits we change nothing, no correction,
No blood, sweat and tears matter they just splatter on the ground 'cause egos need protection,
Failure to adapt to the new environments is a risk too big, let's not head in that direction,
Stick to what we know, what we're conditioned to enjoy... Juggle's hell; the resurrection,
Spread opinions like plagues, soon the rebels drop their weapons,
Surrendering to the livid masses far too timid to venture far to islands trenchant.
