    Honestly if you want to learn more on the subject, debates are not a good way. It may seem engaging but on a topic with extensive history and sensitivity such as this these its best to seek other means. Especially when it involves that sex pest destiny

      I agree kind of :) They’re absolutely not a replacement for actual research, but I think videos like these can inspire interesting questions which encourage further reading. Most people as well probably aren’t willing to critically and factually research a given subject, so well structured and fact based debates I think could be helpful for helping inform a wider audience maybe

        Tbh very rarely are debates you find on youtube well structured and really fact based. A lot of times its more about arguing semantics or finding logical traps in the others rhethoric more so than spreading knowledge on the subject. And very rarely does it change minds. Maybe it did for you but believe me when I say that is an exception. Generally vast majority of the audience just comes to affirm their believes through a vehicle or a mouthpiece. Its unfortunate but it is what it is.
