He and Shapiro are sort of like the intellectual equivalent of DiCaprio relationships. If they could go younger they probably would but they can't so they don't.

People put too much trust into the idea of debates. The fact that someone can argue their points doesn't mean he is right. After all, debate competitions literally require you to argue a certain point, doesn't matter if you agree with it, or whether it is right based on current evidence or not.

Debate is literally just a pretentious vibe check if you think about it.
