no

 

[lowinhibragecel]

hmm the few ive seen so far is quite interesting

but sometimes i feel like its all fruitless

at the end of the day both sides are never really gonna concede unless one side is retarded as fuck

and if you think about it every opinion is kinda correct to an extent if you can argue it well enough

intellectual content

 

[SecularIslamist]

I watch them sometimes but if you read books you will realise most of these debates barely scratch the surface of the enormous intellectual content behind them.

There are lots of high IQ people who can express profiund thoughts about religion, politics, society etc but they are boring as hell and cannot talk in public. That's why you have journalists and Twitter personalities do it. They aren't really high IQ or saying anything original, but they are gigaNT, engaging and good storytellers. For example Mehdi Hasan or Ben Shapiro. Even if you hate these guys they can debate. But they don't say anything original or mind blowing. It's very rare to be both.
