I wanted to discuss debating because it is a big part of our discussions here. Here is a well articulated view on debating from a member:
Let's all discuss it.
What do you like or dislike about debate?
We can also talk about good debates that you've seen and why you liked it.
interesting. I very much agree. It is for this reason that I have so little interest in debate as a way to investigate a subject. Two people focused on what is true in their experience with appropriate epistemically humility is better than two people representing opposing views willing to go to any length to play up the strengths of their side while diminishing those on the other side isn’t worth doing.
