sharpdolphin-67 OP

So
There has been times on Debates or Anywhere in particular that there would be two people talking about this or that regards of what topic is about (Mostly anything)
And there would be people around the circle or in the table listening to the debate
And the people that usually interrupts the debates would tend to instigate the debate in order to provoke conflict or manipulating the situation to get others upset
And for some reason
In Hot Takes
Theres gonna be lots of Ragebaiting and Biases time after time
Like 1v20s you against everybody that would disagree in arguments
For some reason you wish you have that morality by your side but it only depends on the topic

(Instigating atp is just Ragebaiting TO ME tho)

Whats yall take?

grandquiver-69

Yea I kinda agree, whenever it gets kinda heated I just feel it's better to not always be so firm on a side since at times both sides got good points (not always but yh)

They could just be sharing their opinions ig. It depends on the person's reason, some people can perceive even an opinion as ragebait even when the person who said it didn't have intentions of that

swiftorchid-87

i mean if ur posting a hot take then u should have every point to defend ur take(only if u firmly believe in it)..even if someone's trying to ragebait then just give them reply in their own way..

steadyyonder-71

Yet again, based off of tone and facial expressions, it can most definitely be ragebait. No matter if the fact is true or not.

@sharpdolphin-67 Idk bro like its a lot of biases when it comes to 1v20s and ive been seeing that so much lately
livelyivory-92

its not about whether you want to wait or not. Its about being civilized, respectful, and keeping things orderly

sageisland-80

not rlly manipulation? sure it’s a hot take but people can act civil in it, yall js choose not too. Using the excuse that it’s the internet and y aren’t going to get ur way, like no people want to be a pain to everyone, not gonna change everything bc u can’t have a normal conversation

sageisland-80

it’s it literally scientifically proven to be more work to be an asshole than being a normal neutral person

sunnyjester-27

That's why it's important to understand what ppl are saying before typing. What I meant was: nobody waits for his turn before giving their point, it's a public chat, we can be talking about something and another person suddenly responded to it, even though it wasn't him that you were talking to. Just the way you're replying to anyone

sorry i didnt understand yr first msg but the main issue of instigating wouldnt exist in online arguments bc you can jst respond to each person one at a time instead of being overwhelmed of everyone talking at once like irl

eagerrocket-10

also in the original msg he never specifically mentioned online arguments so my msg of handling it like an interview still stands in irl debates against many people at once

@sageisland-80 he’s 15 he’s so clueless dude
eagerrocket-10

I'm not clueless You blocked me because i was just trying to have a debate even tho you were saying it wasnt a debate bc you already knew of the points i were making. but if you knew of the points i was making then you wouldnt be complaining that college is too expensive some things i was saying were offensive and i did make an assumption that was. wrong but my main points still stand

@eagerrocket-10 I'm not clueless You blocked me because i was just trying to have a debate even tho you were saying…
sageisland-80

dude u literally said it’s not that expensive and i shouldn’t be complaining bc it’s non profit like gang the point of the post was to share college is too expensive for normal people. U said ur rich and can afford it and ur 15 so u have no reason to be telling me this stuff bc ur biased. And no it wasn’t a debate bc it’s collective for normal people that college is expensive. U told me to get 4 jobs???? ur insensitive that’s why i blocked u

sageisland-80

i never said tell me i’m wrong or tell i’m right, u live in the US you would understand if not im not speaking about abroad you were literally the only person saying that bullshit, everyone else was agreeing but said u don’t have to go to college for some jobs to avoid the debt

@sageisland-80 dude u literally said it’s not that expensive and i shouldn’t be complaining bc it’s non profit lik…
eagerrocket-10

yes i was being insensitive about the four jobs and i didnt acknowledge the fact that you knew that the amount tuition cost is needed for the state to afford the college and that you were just saying that college is expensive and meant no disagreement over that fact AND yes i was trying to piss you off bye saying alot of bs. ik those are all valid reasons to block me but still sis calm down.. i dont get what the big idea is ???? 🤷

eagerrocket-10

unblocking me jst to say that is srs dedication ✌️

sageisland-80

ur not unblocked i can reveal ur messages, the big deal is that ur still talking to me ab this, been like an hr leave me alone

sageisland-80

he was talking about multiple people talking at once not jst onee
