I propose the idea of a covid invitational debate moderated by conservative social media
Self ^ | 08/30/21 | Self/vanity

Posted on 08/30/2021 4:41:48 PM PDT by patriot torch

I propose an idea of a covid invitational debate, which would be hosted by conservative leaders of alternative social media. This would have to be hosted by conservatives for three purposes. 1.Because debate would never be allowed by big tech liberals. 2.Because alternative voices are silenced. 3.In order to educate the public there needs to be a true platform of ideas and facts.

It could be jointly live streamed, on social media platforms. The debate could be held at a location such as with C-PAC.

The topics could be vaccines, alternative treatments, lockdowns, business and industry concerns, legislation and budgeting.

The conservative team could be compiled of experts such as Frontline doctors, etc. The opposition could also compile their team and present their side.

The debate moderator would have to be truly independent and just present the debate topics. A timed response and rebuttle period would have to be determined.


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Education; Health/Medicine; Military/Veterans
KEYWORDS: covid; debate; vaccine
Is this a possibility? Anybody?

Not sure how to post a vanity thread so bear with me.

I would propose that we all need an intermediary site where conservatards and libtards can debate issues under a moderated set of rules and relatively strong moderation.

I’d love to see FR platform software licensed out to such groups, not just for Covid but for all kinds of issues and topics. It would be a great source of revenue for FR.

I was thinking Pollard has the skillset for such a project but he took a pass.

Libs don’t debate. They shut down debate.

They only want to shut you down or shout you down.

Happy if you are cancelled or dead.

There is no debate.

They won’t jump out of plane or scuba dive but, they do love being scared.

I posted this to an earlier thread; I would suggest this doctor be part of your debate:

Congratulations on successfully posting your first vanity thread.

What's hard about getting two sides of a debate is that those explaining the harmful effects of the 'shots' and citing experts like mRNA inventor Dr. Malone, Dr. McCullough and Dr. Yeadon, are drown out by the 'vaccines for everyone, or else!' crowd repeating the same word over and over again, "QUACK! QUACK! QUACK!" is all the vax pushers ever say. Show them a table of data and research and they say, "QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK!"

A second potential problem is that the Biden regime has ruled that contributing to 'vaccine hesitancy' is terrorism. So any debate attendees know from the start that one side (anti fake vaccines) is under threat of political persecution. There's more room in Biden's gulag, so those supporting the scientific evidence proving the 'vaccines' are harmful and not working may end up roommates with January 6 protesters.

I would be interested in watching, if his royal hindass, Biden, would grant a stay of execution for any and all  who express 'wrong thoughts' or disagree with his CCP party talking points. FR's shills are very supportive of Biden regime policies regarding 'dangerous' independent opinions.

I hope your idea succeeds and no one is jailed as a result. We DO need to get back into the habit of allowing dissent or else we have to start paying Communist dues out of our paycheck.

Debate? You must be mad. The debate is always over before it began. Anything those with the agenda don’t like is “misinformation”.

Well you weren't clear on the objective from the start. You gave me a link to a website that was a Scott Adams fan site for commentary on his podcasts/blog posts. I could have easily done something like that.

It could be jointly live streamed, on social media platforms. The debate could be held at a location such as with C-PAC.

That would be a huge endeavor not only tech wise but labor, facilities etc. Better have millions of dollars to spare.

We're basically in the midst of a global communist takeover. Not really something you can debate your way out of when the other side doesn't want to debate because it has already captured all of the institutions. Debate should have happened at the university level 30 years ago as that is who has been pumping out this ideology for decades.

The only hope we have in the US is to start getting sane people into place starting from the local level and working up from there. That includes government and education. Unions are another problem and very hard to get rid off. We even have them for fedgov now.

We’re past that. The Left wouldn’t dare debate. If any Leftist made the fatal mistake of participating in such a debate, it would be banned on social media. The last thing the Left wants exposed is truth.

***I know. The desire behind it wasn’t showing up on the links I sent you.

You gave me a link to a website that was a Scott Adams fan site for commentary on his podcasts/blog posts.
***Yes, as an example of what could be done with DISQUS and autoposting of articles. Also it originally was intended to be a balanced website but the libtards overwhelmed it.

I could have easily done something like that.
***Cool. I’m still kinda interested if you are.

It could be jointly live streamed, on social media platforms. The debate could be held at a location such as with C-PAC.
***Sounds good to me.

That would be a huge endeavor not only tech wise but labor, facilities etc. Better have millions of dollars to spare.
***Oh, oops, suddenly this doesn’t sound like such a good idea. But a souped up version of what www.scottadamsfans.com has would be pretty cheap, wouldn’t it?

We’re basically in the midst of a global communist takeover. Not really something you can debate your way out of when the other side doesn’t want to debate because it has already captured all of the institutions.
***I understand. At least we could say we tried.

Debate should have happened at the university level 30 years ago as that is who has been pumping out this ideology for decades.
***Yup.

The only hope we have in the US is to start getting sane people into place starting from the local level and working up from there.
***Yup. We ARE talking about putting together a debate website, rather than solving the whole political nut.

That includes government and education. Unions are another problem and very hard to get rid off. We even have them for fedgov now.
***Yup. I think we should find ways to engage them in open, un-eraseable debate. They’ll luze every time.
