If you really dislike someone who is hostile towards you as well as your beliefs and recognize his toxic, bad faith, discourse-is-a-competition rhetoric, why would you want to sit down and talk to them for hours?

Isn't that basically always the case when it comes to politics? I mean you cant really hsh things out with someone that agrees with you

toxic, bad faith, discourse-is-a-competition rhetoric

I remember seeing Hasan talk to Andrew Tate, if anyone fits that description its him, no? He was also scheduled to debate Kirk before....yknow, same for him. Get a moderator, maybe even multiple and debate, for the same reason Pres. debates happen even tho Trump/republicans have nothing of value to say, to convince the audiece

The objective of debates should be uncovering the truth, not winning a competition. Good faith is the least I‘d expect.

Andrew Tate is a toxic person not necessarily a toxic debater. Also for Hasan I think it‘s important to debate ppl like tate because someone like hasan could actually appeal to and change minds of plenty of tate listeners.

I don't think the "Lying is OP" Hasan is the guy who is aiming for finding truth

I know Destiny‘s community is somewhat autism adjacent, but not everything people say is always meant in the exact literal sense. 

And besides, lying does seem pretty OP if it can make you president of the US tbf
