Yeah so it was essentially satire.

Whether those particular debaters were rebelling, satirizing, or simply following the rules, it remains true that fast debating (AKA spreading [1]) is a "ridiculous style of competitive 'debating'".

You know that wasn't why it was shared here, and it was deliberately edited to push people towards a completely different conclusion.
