How to win a political debate!

1.) When in doubt, compare your opponent/opponent's beliefs to death camps, Hitler, or the Holocaust. If they invoke Godwin's Law, call them haters of free speech.
2.) If they criticize you or your beliefs, make sure to call them out on hating free speech. Remember freedom of speech means acceptance of other views, not tolerance.
3.) Gay marriage. Your emergency topic. You could be talking about Hurricane Katrina or Middle Eastern oil fields and when the going gets tough, just bring up the gay marriage issue. Example: "How can I even bother to debate with a homophobic bastard or gay-loving pinko?"
4.) There are no moderates. Either you're a far-right wing neoconservative Hitler-worshipper or a far-left Stalin-sucking pinko liberal hippie. Or even an evil worker-hating corporation-hugging environment-destroying Libertarian.
5.) Corporations. When in doubt, blame them and associate your opponent with them. Example: "How can I talk to a corporate cocksucking whore such as yourself?"
6.) Treason. Disagree with your viewpoint? Out of responses? Call them traitors to your nation or army deserters. They may just happen to be the biggest pacifist in the world, but if you can call them out on their lack of military service, then you're gold.
7.) Attack Americans. "What do you mean Marx was full of shit? What are you, a stupid fat-ass fascist American?"
8.) Attack their grammar. "Your? Don't you mean you're? Ha, you must know nothing about politics or economics you stupid shit."
9.) Overexaggerate your opponent's position. "So you're against the minimum wage because it causes more unemployment? Well, I guess that just means you support child labor, pedophilia, the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the Great Depression, and Nazis on Dinosaurs!"
10.) Create a list of ways to win a political debate. "Shit, I don't know how to win a debate so I'm just going to make a bitter list to make me seem like an enlightened hero!" ;)

I lolve it!
Thanks for summing up the last two weeks of NS General so efficiently. In fact, I think that's an accurate list of debate "in the line of battle", so to speak. :D
You put it far better than I could've.

And if anyone argues and says you're being illogical, call them a whiner.

Good point, but a nice round 10 points is all I could make. Because we know anyone who makes 11 points is obviously gay.;)

Sounds fine to me. Nonsensical, pointless, and impertinent to the topic at hand, well done!:sniper: (also, sniper smilies always help make your point seem cooler)

No, nothing is more devastating than the
"ur a fucking idiot bcause u voted 4 bu$h/kerry/jesus:sniper::gundge: :upyours: "
Now, for fear of inciting any wrathful actions against me, I will refrain from ever using any of the above smilies ever again.

I don't know about you, but I kick babies for sport. Only bleeding-heart, I-love-all-of-God's-creatures-even-the-ugly-ones, baby-factories that don't know how to close their legs oppose baby-kicking. Them, and people without legs that are jealous because they're missing out on all the fun.

That's what your flip-flopping, Kerry-voting, fat, ugly bleeding-heart, "save the rainforest", flyer-throwing, commujist-neocon-uberliberal-Jesus-hating mom said last night while we were stabbing dolphins in the head with table knives.

Stick your fingers in your ears and go "la la la, la la la la, la la la" while your opponent is arguing.

If that's so bad, why were you killing dolphins with her, Nazi-loving, spitting-on-religion, pinko traitor?

Exactly. For example:
(in the year 2036 AD)
"Did you hear about President Gorbenshleimer signing that anti-abortion bill?"
"DAMN YOU BUSH!"
or even
"The Yankees are better than the Red Sox, retard."
"The Yankees just buy their teams...because of Bush."
