mojo1701a posted:Yeah I'd debate a Ph. D if it were like, "Who's a better captain, Kirk or Picard?" or something superfluous like that and not like, say, Bitcoiners trying to take down Paul Krugman. Those people absolutely should be debated, and it shouldn't need to be other academics doing so, although someone like Winters who knows far more about the biases claimed by standpoint theory and their implications might be better placed to do so than I.

And even if you are deeply unqualified to debate a PhD in their field, you should still probably take it seriously and try to make a good showing as opposed to thinking "Well, she's a womz talking about silly womz stuff, clearly I'll blow her out of the water with my male rationality."

The funny thing about this is after getting humiliated Carl claimed that he had over-prepared for the debate.

Sargon literally doesn't give a poo poo about intellectual rigour, it's no surprise he got stomped by Kristi Winters. Either he's deliberately posting bullshit and relying on his audience to accept it at face value or genuinely is a moron but doesn't have the honesty to correct or own his mistakes. Here he is smarmily asking antifa how they feel about ISIS using their banner: https://twitter.com/Sargon_of_Akkad/status/861196505478201344  it isn't ISIS, its the YPG who just kicked ISIS out. He then expertly rockets the goalposts across several timezones by then going "well yeah but they're commies so six of one, half a dozen of the other"

I think Carl might be trapped in a vise of his own making. If he owns up to being wrong, his followers might stop respecting him and his livelihood will be threatened. That or he's a sad, pig headed moron who can't admit fault, like a petulant five year old.

Why does he respond to Shaun? Like if I had a twitter and some nazi was posting criticism of me that I thought was unfair, I'd just block them. I know they're not analogous situations, but maybe my failure to understand is why I'm not nazi-fellating scum in his 40s with no friends and a bad hairstyle.

Someone should dare Sargon to post about some racist/fascistic militias that he actually disapproves. He'd either have to attack some Confederacy groupies and lose fans, or post pics of BLM or Berkeley and become more of a joke 'leftist'.

Right wingers believe in discourse, but unlike the typical lib they use the discourse to gently caress with their ideological rivals. This backfires on them because they cannot ignore people without looking weak.

This backfires on them because they cannot ignore people without looking weak. they also cannot stand up to scrutiny because they're massive loving idiots, which is why they typically only debate people they think they can take on like new college student. Everytime they try to debate an actual academic or someone who knows what they're talking about they crumble.

I'm not sure the alt right have a hope of grasping French politics when it's very different to the US and neither of these candidates fit into the republican/democrat molds. Not saying I do but I'm also not trying to influence votes.

Kristi said that she had to practice for the debate, getting her points in a row, making sure she had enough time and everything. Honestly, you could probably debate a PhD if you had like 2-3 weeks of prep. You probably won't win, but you'll have a better showing than Carl.

I don't think any of these people are qualified to debated a PhD in their field, to be fair. I figured some of them would be disgruntled academics, but outside the few profs most of these jokers seem to adults who should really go back for some education or young kids.

It is a widely reported claim and he has never challenged it. His wiki article doesn't mention his life before gamergate, and he seems like the kind of guy to crow about his qualifications, ala Davis Auruni saying that he was "tutored in history" at McMaster. https://www.reddit.com/r/SargonofAkkad/comments/509207/who_is_carl_benjamin_also_known_as_sargon_of_akkad/?st=j2gsjyc2&sh=cd34d8e9
