The irony of someone arguing about high school debate being bad and then making piss poor arguments of zero substance is not at all lost upon me although it looks like it whizzed past you. I think someone like you would've benefited more debate than anyone else.
And yet here you come. Replying to my comment, using the same exact techniques created specifically "to win".
Literally evoking the feeling of being attack, by introducing thinly veiled insults into your comment.
What do you think would result from such a retort? (specifically after you called my perspective "piss poor")
PS: I have debated many times at school and afterwards. Your condescension is poorly hidden

I wrote what I wrote because I thought you had some sense of curiosity about the people you complained about and I thought this was an appropriate space to talk about each other's beliefs and experiences. I did not expect your hostility!
What I learned from your response, is that debates in US teach you - ignore the principles of the argument, fail to follow up and say(or write) a lot of words. (to "win")
Funny, that to me you've become the caricature that you're complaining about.
