BUDL Demo Debate-Cooper/Love Vs Reid Brinkley/Burch Part 9

[utube9000]

Is this how black students debate nowadays?

Screaming run-on sentences until you're out of breath? Endlessly repeating tired cliches about "institutional racism" and "white supremacy?" Using multi-syllabic words out of context - just to appear intelligent?

Sorry, but I ain't fall for the okie doke. This is pretentious. pseudo-intellectual bullshit substituting for real, reasoned debate. Adopting this "debating" style is a mark of intellectual failure, not achievement.

@utube9000 You clearly have no experience at debate, or the understanding of the literature they are talking about. This is actually very conversation and clear compared to standard policy debate on the high school and college. You may not think concepts like 'institutional racism' are substantive, as you call them cliches, but that is exactly what the debaters are critiquing as problematic.

@bvelvet63 What you talkin bout' Willis?

@utube9000 Lol, the fact that you have to refer to a stereotypical African American cartoon is exactly proof that you do not have the knowledge to debate about racism and if the terms these debaters use are 'cliches' in today's society.

@bvelvet63 Sho'nuff!
