Like I said, there's no reason to debate certain things anymore. You mentioned the exact point that I preemptively stated. We don't debate that racism is bad, there's no debate to be had about it. We don't debate climate change, it's a fact. We don't debate women's rights, its been decided a thousand times over and the effects have been proven several million times over.

Asking to debate these things is unproductive and doesn't serve any other purpose than a dishonest discussion of ideas and topics that have already been concluded as problematic.

That's how it gets decided. We decided as a collective that murder, rape, abortion, climate change, evolution, gender pronouns, and all the other stuff was the right direction. It's about as ridiculous as wanting to debate that 2+2 = 4.

That's your opinion.

> We don't debate that racism is bad

The Supreme Court is about to decide on a case regarding Affirmative Action, which is the practice of making decisions based upon someone's race (AKA racism).

There have been debates about whether murder is justifiable in certain situations, such as self defense under the castle doctrine.

We're literally discussing Stallman's opinion about whether some girls were raped.

Abortion is INCREDIBLY controversial. It is far from a decided issue with concensus.

Same with climate change, not even the entire scientific community is certain to the degree of man-made influence on our climate.

Darwinian style evolution remains officially a theory.

Gender pronouns, yeah again, hardly a consensus there. Biologically, there are X and Y chromosomes, and that's where known and agreed upon science ends. It's just very disingenuous to pretend that people having gender pronouns that differ from their biological sex is some universally agreed upon truth.

This is false, the scientific community that studies climate is in agreement of the impact of humans. It's absurd to call the three scientists that fox news has on to deny climate change anything more than less than 1% of scientists involved in the matter. 99%+ of climate scientists along with the current state of research definitely agrees that humans have had an incredible impact on the current changes we see in the climate

It's like that stat that says 9/10 dentists agree that brushing your teeth is good or whatever. Are you going to side with the one dentist that doesn't? That's what you're doing here
