Kristi Winters Wants a Formal Debate!

Kristi wants a formal debate. It won't be with me but I second The Distributist.

However, my reason for making this video are the misgivings i have with formal debates on subjects such as social issues with are not dichotomous (did well to come up with that word after a few drinks!). If you want to get to the heart of the issue rather than just look for some kind of silly "win" then I propose a formal debate, with it's reliance on point scoring, playing to the gallery and of explicitly penalising anyone who tries to find areas of common ground, is not a good way to move things forward.
Kristi says she does not want some kind of unfocussed hangout (perhaps she is minded of her own "peer review" hangout) but there is a lot of ground inbetween between a formal debate and the kinds of bullshit hangouts that pass as content nowadays. There is also what used to amount to a good old-fashined intellectual conversation: an informal debate!!!
Anyway, let us see what results..... well at least you can see what results, i am blocked and banned from doing so ;-)

Kristi Winters' video "My Robust Feminist Argument - Debate Invitation "

[simorote]

The Justicar should step up to the challenge

[callmeoz]

The '' Sargon Victory'' :She holds that up as her greatest achievement.
She's terrified of you.

***KAREN STRAUGHAN vs Kristi Winters***

Kristi wont stand a

[ChaplainTappman]

What the what? Where's cactus?! Bring cactus back!

[QuantumOverlord]

K winters just wants to do it for the publicity. She called Tf00t a coward for not wanting to engage in debate, then ran away from my debate challenge! The reason she wants to debate Sargon and not you is quite simply because Sargon has half a million subs.

I saw the title of this video and I had to laugh. Kristi has no idea what a debate is

[krisathestpwer]

There's that cheap whisky.🍷
I'm glad I'm out of that Shives-Winters-Logan echochamber. If you remember, she blocked me on Twitter/Facebook and banned me from her Facebook group after I agreed with you that her "academic expert criticism" of one of your videos was piss-poor!

Kristi doesn't want a debate, she wants to be on a channel with 700k+ subs

[ZefVolk]

Chips and cactus. High production value! Never change Mister Plum.

Formal debates suck. And I say that as someone who has watched dozens and dozens of formal debates. They can be entertaining, sure. But for the purpose of getting to the bottom of a disagreement about an issue, it is one of the worst formats for a verbal exchange of ideas.

The first problem is that it encourages the debaters, and the audience, to pick a side, rather than being open minded. In all the debates I've watched, I've never witnessed someone admit to being wrong on a major point of discussion. It's hard enough for people to do this in normal conversation, but when you turn the discussion into a competition, and admitting error into "losing, " then it becomes near impossible.

The second problem is that the format doesn't allow any specific points to be nailed down. The debaters end up talking past each other, and overlooking the nuances of their opponent's arguments for the sake of scoring points.The only good parts of these debates is the section (which never gets enough allotted time) where the debaters ask each other questions, because that's the part that is most like real conversation.

Very good point. I've tried to explain my feelings on debates many times and ended up over complicating it. Well done.

[radicallyWIRED]

I agree- the Distributionist is sharp, has the educational background that can challenge hers (ie no fucking calling the person out front being uneducated, he's an engineer if I remember correctly) and is pretty thorough.

[sonnyliveringhouse]

don't give it to her. Not worth letting your credibility rub off on her

[tsarenvy]

Spot on about the limitations of debate. Conversation is overwhelmingly more expositional.

[tokra]

A formal debate as long as her opponent agrees 100% with her positions beforehand.

[Martial-Mat]

I'd never debate someone who has my opinions censored on any of her media.

[PerpetratorOfTruth]

NephilimFree always was obsessed with debating too. I guess it's part of the pathology.

[Noobwarriking]

Noel, you just made sure that KW will never debate TheDistributist.
Oh well...

[TheColonelKlink]

There is an old tree stump in my backyard that Kristy Winters might be able to handle in a "debate."

I have been a subscriber since this channel started, almost, and... I forgot what to write.
