Alex Jones debate techniques

After listening to the new episode of Knowledge Fight, here are lessons to be learned from Alex Jones's style of "debate".....

  1. Yelling all the time and never stop talking

  2. Gish Gallop (spewing lots of talking points so nobody can fact-check or counter)

  3. Name calling by pretending to misremember your opponent's name (eg, calling Destiny "Ding Dong" and claims that he forgets his name)

  4. Generalisation your opponents' talking point to make them look bad (eg, twisting your opponent's statement that Ashley wasn't get beaten in the head by saying that "HE THINKS Ashley didn't get shot!")

  5. Whataboustism

  6. Distracting by bringing other topics instead (talking about vaccines or Trump ballot during the Jan 6 debate)

Any other tactics you guys see here?

    What are your favorite albums to cheer yourself up on a bad day?

    This is the same question I asked r/ClassicRock and r/80smusic on Reddit months ago. So it's time to ask Lemmy users in order to see the variety of answers and music taste here :)

    Hey Lemmy, what is your favorite kind of music?
  • Classic Rock, 80's New Wave, 80's-90's Alt. Rock

    I listen to different other genres as well, but these are what I listen to most frequently.
