There’s random time wasting debates by random people all over YouTube - what do you expect from you tube? If nothing else it shows that people who want to “discuss” things all the time are probably going to waste a lot of people’s time, and probably have a bit too much of an infatuation with themselves that I am a bit too uncomfortable being around. And if some young yuppie college kids get attracted to cameras and microphones, really watch out.
The only difference is; the dude with the camera, mic, and motivation gets to call the other dude an idiot at the end and insert a few humorous clips. That guy sets context and perspective before and after everything is said and done - in such a situation, I’d much rather be in his position than his “opposition”.
So some random amature college debate video showing “activists” covering some tertiary topic (at best) to mises.org is a bit of a confusing starting point for me to grasp any worthwhile reaction in “debating” and convincing.
If you’re trying to point out that being a radom activist going up to random college activists in some demonstration with a camera is usually an intellectually vapid tactic and isn’t good for debating or convincing- that is a good point .
