Debate me if you care about the rule
(lemmy.world)
Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
They're absolutely being disingenuous, but I think it's important to keep in mind that the purpose of debate is not generally to change the mind of the person you're debating with. It's intended to be done with an audience (or judges in a formal competitive debate), and it's the audience that you're trying to sway to your side.
