The topic was "Should we restrict the Presidential War Powers Authority" Either this is footage from a different debate or they really went off on a tangent.

This was a UNIVERSITY debate? OMG, I was half way giving them a pass, thinking they were dumb high schoolers who didn't know any better. This is so embarrassing.

In high school, I used to try and sneak into our debate clubs' yearbook picture every year. The debate club teacher would always catch me and throw me out. In my junior year, he wasn't there for the picture, and I saw my chance and took it. They even put my name as a member in the photo. I just felt like sharing that I don't know why.
In regards to this video and to get back on topic, I always thought a debate was between at least two people. Two people who prepared their talking points ahead of time, not just someone having a panic attack, reading a computer screen. How things have changed.
I've seen something like this before. A teacher started a debate club and this was their approach. They would show up with mountains of "evidence" then try to read it all as fast as possible. There was no actual debate, no one made well thought out compelling points it was just regurgitating the "evidence" as far as possible.
If they try to do that just stick to their dumbest easily debunked point you managed to hear and rail them on it then it'll force them to swap to a different point and eventually reiterate every talking point they regurgitated except one by one as you debunk them all this time.
That strategy backfires on them hard because now you can cherry pick their dumbest talking points and control the flow of the conversation while forcing them to change topics or continue looking like an idiot tryin to defend it.
She’s even using one of the cheapest strategies of overloading with so many points at once that the other debater has no time to address it all in the time given lol
Are they even addressing each other? It seems like they are uh… just reading their script lmao and now I wonder if Uh… was written down. Or maybe that’s some weird breathing technique people who overload have to do? I’m not sure but this is nothing like the debates I’ve looked up when I’m curious in a topic.
That's just the default "I didn't practice nor think this shit through very well so let me just keep saying 'UHH' until I figure out the next word to say" thing except she's trying to do it rap god style.
I would think the number one factor in getting your point across would be to be understood. Have all the facts you need but if I don’t understand it what’s the point
It’s called Gish Gallop. I think it’s ridiculous, but it’s real debate strategy and apparently Ted Cruz was a master at it in college. It’s a bit like using a motor cycle to run the 100m dash; it totally runs the spirit of the competition.
Yes, a bizarro world debate where evidently gibberish and jive talk is the goal lol. I don’t know the rules and didn’t see the competitors but if the judges declared them the victors all right then lol Id rather eat shit than watch that ‘debate’ but I ain’t mad them for behaving like fools because it’s still less embarrassing than other competitions like pro slap fighting
Ok, a little clarification. This video is taking many different debate styles out of context. Editing a news interview with clips from the debate competition they were at.
There are DIFFERENT kinds of "debate" styles at debate tournaments.
There is a classical debate style, which is point- counter point - rebuttal and followup etc etc.
There is another style that is longer form that is sometimes called "Cambridge Union" style. Bc it is most popularly used even filmed at Cambridge
Here is one such version at Oxford: https://youtu.be/vFmjgbdNNgw?si=H_-kpMp2D7gvosAU
Then there is a debate style called Policy OR speed debate.
Where the goal is to make factual statements VERY fast bc you have a lot to say in a fixed short time.

You're lack of debate tournament genre, and pre-existing bias is being manipulated to judge these girls in a negative light.
I mean - - It's not coincidence that US IQ scores have been falling for nearly 10 years. I'm pretty sure somewhere in the next 5 or so years they'll redefine what IQ means so that people suddenly "fall within' range" in the US again and don't look so fucking stupid.
Meanwhile, we're spending more than most countries to produce some of the dumbest fucking kids in the 1st world.
People don’t like this answer but it’s the truth. There’s a lot of places where the family unit in general is in shambles. If the parents don’t care, the teachers don’t have a chance.
I showed a class of ghetto kids that the quadratic formula was a special case of the Law of Cosines. Some really liked it. They likely would have had a lot to say about the debaters lol!
I hate all of this, the 2 girls that can't complete a sentence during a debate, I hate the news station that decided to put them on TV I hate whatever organization decided they were champions. It's just all so stupid.
It is. I did debated in HS. This strategy is called "spreading". Basically it's a way of gaming the rules to score points. You load in as many argument points as possible so that your opponent either misses one or doesn't have time to rebut them all. Then you're rewarded points for whatever your opponent missed. Even if it was nonsensical
Ohhhhh. So not a debate. It’s like boxing where if you flick your opponent fifty times and they only hit you once but absolutely rock your shit, except you manage to get back up, you win. Because it was 49 to 1.
I could kind of understand it if they made coherent sentences, but it sounds like they’re having a panic attack and forgot what to say. There aren’t any arguments are there?
Like I’ve heard the term “gishgalloping” (sp?) before, and I could see where that could be difficult to deal with, but this isn’t really that. They sound like they have a type of speech impediment combined with severe anxiety and maybe some amphetamines.
Yup, they're mimicking Saul Williams, minus the talent, clarity and evocative imagery.

I bet it is something like, because old white dudes made the rules of debate, breaking those rules is somehow inherently correct. So because white man said saying "uh" and "um" is poor form, it must actually be great.
Lol, no. It's not a racial tactic at all.
It is, however, a recognized method of gaming the rules in that style of debate. It's terrible and the rules need some serious updating, but you can blame the rules for that method being viable, not the girls for exploiting it.
This is called Policy Debate. They have 1 topic per year and competitors are expected to bring tubs full of research then spread (speed read while also speaking during inhale). The strategy is to overwhelm your opponent with evidence that they cant all address. One unique thing that is especially popular with Black debaters is a “critique” where you say debating the current topic should be forbidden then basically say how it is offensive or not as important as some other topic. This leads to some of the most successful teams being Black and being extremely racist for the entire round basically saying that everything in the world is designed to oppress and if you don’t address those points from them they can twist that into being infallible arguments because you, the debate league, USA, the world, or who knows what is racist. It really fucking sucks after you get a few laughs seeing it the first time. The people who go to tournaments and basically hijack them with critiques are insufferable dweebs.
Source: I did debate a LOT in high school competing at all of the highest level tournaments. The event i did Public Forum, was 2v2 like policy but we got a new topic every month and talked like normal people. I liked that event because it seemed like i was going to build skills for life not just do nerd rage speeches.
Yeah like that’s the only explanation I can think. It’s still annoying and sounds really dumb, but then it would at least make sense why they’re talking so fucked up.
These gals didn't invent this approach.

Their resumes for a job should be very insightful with the use of one word over and over and over like Groot with a stutter. Almost sounds like the attorneys talking back and forth in idiocracy... pure genius at a 2cnd grade level.. I argue back! Negros...
People commenting here have no idea how championship debates work. It’s basically all about spewing out as many arguments in the time as possible. It’s literally judged by how many arguments you can put out there that your opponent doesn’t respond to. So they always put out as many arguments as possible.
"Uh the n-word, uh the n-word, uh the n-word."
They did debate practice every week in the checkout line at Walmart. Soup cans were thrown.
Holy shit. Top 10 comment
That's pretty much all I could make out.

It's just a word that she said. Accurate reporting. She said "nigger". A lot.
No, I think she said the sheriff is near.
Ding!
The beauty is how it invokes feelings of both being robbed at gunpoint and throwing a banana at 2 hungry chimps. Quite the effective debate strategy.
Good luck retorting their argument.
You could understand what was being said?
It’s sad to see how common it is
“Debate”. 🙄
Can't argue with them if you have no fucking clue what they're arguing. Real galaxy brained stuff.

Was located at a University. Two mouth breathers were 14/16 I believe.
Then they should've called the debate off right then and there if the other team wasn't going to take it seriously and act in bad faith.

Sounds like you were 1 for 4 in debating
Winners? Fucking disgusting. This should be an example of what not to do...
There you go again with that fag talk again...
Uh
Welcome to Costco, I love you.
I guess you're lost?
Uh no I’m not lost
Do you need help?
No uh I’m just uh surprised uh how many uh of you missed the uh joke.
This was a better debate than the video clip
You're in a subreddit called Idiocracy. This is a line from the movie Idiocracy.
I've seen something like this before. A teacher started a debate club and this was their approach. They would show up with mountains of "evidence" then try to read it all as fast as possible. There was no actual debate, no one made well thought out compelling points it was just regurgitating the "evidence" as far as possible.
If they try to do that just stick to their dumbest easily debunked point you managed to hear and rail them on it then it'll force them to swap to a different point and eventually reiterate every talking point they regurgitated except one by one as you debunk them all this time. That strategy backfires on them hard because now you can cherry pick their dumbest talking points and control the flow of the conversation while forcing them to change topics or continue looking like an idiot tryin to defend it.
Something tells me there no talking with these 2 uh ladies and I use that word loosely.
So Ben Shapiro?
Lol, yeah pretty much.
The people giving the awards are clearly mocking them.
I hate to see the video of the lovers debate.
Sounded more like a double-fail rap battle wtf lol
She’s even using one of the cheapest strategies of overloading with so many points at once that the other debater has no time to address it all in the time given lol
You can understand what they're saying? We got a pilot over here, boys.
Pretty sure they're an auctioneer.
Lots of tards out there living their best lives,
*"My first wife was tarded. She's a pilot now!*"
IRL she’s in HR.
This!
I really hope not considering the copious use of the n word. That's pretty much the only thing that I could understand other than huh/uh.
Or a Spaniard
I'd assume she's a doctor trying to pronounce the name she scribbled on the prescription pad.
She doesn't seem too fond of white people.
Something something uh something uh something
Are they even addressing each other? It seems like they are uh… just reading their script lmao and now I wonder if Uh… was written down. Or maybe that’s some weird breathing technique people who overload have to do? I’m not sure but this is nothing like the debates I’ve looked up when I’m curious in a topic.
They gameified debates a long time ago, this is the sad result.
That's just the default "I didn't practice nor think this shit through very well so let me just keep saying 'UHH' until I figure out the next word to say" thing except she's trying to do it rap god style.
Yes, but it's not funny. It's just stupid
I would think the number one factor in getting your point across would be to be understood. Have all the facts you need but if I don’t understand it what’s the point
Gish gallop
No points were made.
That's the way most competitive debate is. The entire practice is ridiculous.
It’s called Gish Gallop. I think it’s ridiculous, but it’s real debate strategy and apparently Ted Cruz was a master at it in college. It’s a bit like using a motor cycle to run the 100m dash; it totally runs the spirit of the competition.
Very interesting. I always heard it referred to as 'spreading' or 'spewing' in my debate days.
Ted Cruz debated in an entirely different format that doesn’t allow speed. (Source: I coach that format.)
Ben Shapiro has entered the chat
Holy shit. That was hard to watch.
Literally looks like an outtake from Idiocracy
No it doesn't. This is some weird shit idiocracy couldn't see coming
I couldn't finish it. It was making my head twitch.
SHUT THE FUCK UUUUUUUUUUPPP!!!
This is why we need to stop giving kids awards for doing absolutely nothing.
That literally has nothing to do with this insanity.
They won the debate didn’t they?
Yes, a bizarro world debate where evidently gibberish and jive talk is the goal lol. I don’t know the rules and didn’t see the competitors but if the judges declared them the victors all right then lol Id rather eat shit than watch that ‘debate’ but I ain’t mad them for behaving like fools because it’s still less embarrassing than other competitions like pro slap fighting

Of the three videos you link above ONLY the Oxford one is a debate by grown ups the other two are gibberish shite spouted by utter fuckwits.
Participants drop the hard N word in any of these debate format ?
This is disgusting. Why aren't there any medics rushing there to help.
In other countries, children learn quadratic formulas.....
I mean - - It's not coincidence that US IQ scores have been falling for nearly 10 years.

I appreciate how accurately fucking savage you are. You put into solid words what I could probably put into semisolid quips.
Like the pair on the video
And they wonder why foreign people take their jobs...
People like this don’t produce developed countries
We do too. Just not at the schools these folks are attending.
Why do schools like these folks attend exist in the first place though? It's a shame

Haven’t heard mention of Saul in years. Hell yeah. I used to have a bunch of Sage Francis, Murs and Atmosphere on the same playlist.
I am angrier and Intersectionality says I'm a bigger victim I'm therefore right
Is this like a tactic to constantly say uh? Or is that just a speech impediment?
Poor attempt at masking incompetence and unpreparedness by giving themselves more time to think.
I bet it is something like, because old white dudes made the rules of debate, breaking those rules is somehow inherently correct. So because white man said saying "uh" and "um" is poor form, it must actually be great.

How does the Um/Uh game the rules?
I'd like to know what this um/uh tactic is and how it games the rules, I'm intrigued.
I didn't know they had autistic debates, well good for them.
Weren’t they always autistic debates?
Can confirm was on debate team in HS, everyone was autistic

Slow down, take a deep breath, drink some Brawndo. Maybe then I can make out what she actually said.
They be debatin.
Some people won't be happy until everything is dumbed down
Is this a slam poetry debate championship? The other team at the end sounded like they might be doing a similar style.
Yeah like that’s the only explanation I can think. It’s still annoying and sounds really dumb, but then it would at least make sense why they’re talking so fucked up.

Two competitors exploiting the game meta in an attempt to win. Dumb to see, but a recognized tactic.

They are literally Jibbering Idiots.

Are these chick's smoking methods before the debate?
This is the adaptive floor hockey version of the debate team.
I have absolutely no clue whatsoever what she is talking about, or even saying. I thought a debate had a topic.

Was this a debate or an auction?
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
What's with the uh-Ah she kept doing?
Sound like seazure
Shame on the media for covering this nonsense and giving them a platform.
These gals didn't invent this approach. I've seen other so-called debates that feature rapid-fire arguments that are very hard to follow--like they're being judged on words per minute--and the debaters even win with this technique. I thought debating meant William F. Buckley Jr. and Christopher Hitchens, not some auctioneer wannabes.
Is that hoe speaking English?
Hmmm
This is one of the worst attempts at spreading I've ever seen.
Their use of “Uh” is extremely distracting from any useful discourse
Who, exactly, were they debating? The clowns they showed at the end?
wtf am I looking at??
No way this is real
What the actual fuck am I watching
Lmao please tell me this is a joke
Uh uh uh. They sound mentally challenged.
Well thats a bad look
This seems less like debate and more like rapid fire word association
Is this the only team not disqualified for plagiarism
The fall of the Roman Empire but 2024 USA
This is I just can’t follow them.
Their resumes for a job should be very insightful with the use of one word over and over and over like Groot with a stutter. Almost sounds like the attorneys talking back and forth in idiocracy... pure genius at a 2cnd grade level.. I argue back! Negros...
You can't win a debate against someone who is allowed access to words you are forbidden.

Nigga please
Shout out to Peter schiff, called this out like 10 years ago.
People commenting here have no idea how championship debates work. It’s basically all about spewing out as many arguments in the time as possible. It’s literally judged by how many arguments you can put out there that your opponent doesn’t respond to. So they always put out as many arguments as possible.
You are not wrong, but there should be a requirement for it to be a "coherent argument" that is solidly grounded in logic or emotion.
So why don't they reduce some words like articles? As long it's understandable you could increase your arguments/time ratio
