Here are some debating skills you'll need to hone if you plan on continuing to participate here:
How To Win a Debate In Spite Of Knowing Nothing
This how-to is the product of years of observing, even participating in, battles of wits against unarmed opponents.
Sometimes it's okay to skip some of these steps, but it's generally best if you follow the general order of things.
Make wild, unprovable assertions about the subject of your choice.
When your adversary counters your assertions with documented facts and case studies, just repeat your assertions.
When pressed by your adversary to provide documentation for your assertions, call him biased. Discredit his sources, too, by making nebulous accusations of bias or incompetence.
When challenged to prove your statements against your adversary or his sources, simply reply that "everybody knows it" or "any fool can see it for himself." Bystanders who didn't already know it or who couldn't see it for themselves will immediately be enlightened.
Put your adversary on the defensive. Accuse him of bias, insensitivity, hatred, bigotry, or whatever sounds good at the moment. The whole discussion will then be taken away from the original subject, and everyone will forget that you were dead wrong from the beginning.
