One of the most successful tactics that you can do when debating is attack, attack, attack. Never answer another person always be on the offensive and question them. Always turn around their questions. That's why Feminists and SJWs can be so successful in arguments and why Annoying Orange was so successful in the GOP debates.

Although if you're talking about when people like mcZealot insult people in an argument I think it doesn't matter either way. I also like to throw jabs into my arguments as well, and I know Ike and Mcjobless also do that.

sounds like a great way to be a big richardo mcgee guy. going out of your way to be disrespectful and aggressive is no way to have a civil debate. if people randomly sling stuff, then at the very least they shouldn't be surprised when people don't want to listen the things they say

yeah, there's literally no need to ever be aggressive, it adds zero substance to your claims and puts people on the defensive. statements are much better-received if they aren't presented with random, frankly unnecessary hostility

well bs liberal fabrications are probably going to be less popular on a forum that's, on average, got a much more right-leaning libertarian active userbase

if anything, sites like this prove that there is an astounding market for bullstuff on the internet, and any ideology is equally likely to dip into that market. though i couldn't name any good sources for this off the top of my head as i involve don't myself in many liberal spaces that frequently discuss contentious politics

it's going to be hard to be happy if you constantly fill your mind with negative thoughts. there's literally no gain to that mindset anyway unless you're taking action, so why bother making your life measurably worse?

We conduct a relentless rape, genocide, and mass extinction constantly. Those who are not directly involved simply condone it.

idk dude all these things you've listed are things that are definitely considered morally negative

lol @ u worshiping the old bitch

i'm going to trust wikileaks on this one. and considering assange didn't speak on the ecuadorian's embassy and wikileaks cancelled the original speech due to security concerns..

"it's not real because i say it's not real reeeee reeeee"

You have no argument other than "fake and gay" either shut up or get over the wall.

i'm pretty sure he's referring back to this on the front page:

we can force mexico to pay at least parts of the cost
there are trade deals that we can use to coerce them to fork over a good chunk of the price

we also can reduce foreign aid to countries that hate us like iran and north korea

in terms of what we can do the price tag is actually pretty reasonable

if you completely ignore foreign policy factors, sure. putting economic pressure on one of our neighbors to force them to help finance a border wall that we insist is their fault isn't really a fantastic idea

especially if we're compounding this with ripping up NAFTA and implementing other economically isolationist policies. mexico isn't going to be too ready to pay for an actual physical barrier between us if we're simultaneously going to be creating economic barriers that hurt them. and going to economic warfare over a border wall is also a pretty silly idea tbh
