Serious Discussion 101

Postby Shadow00 » 21 Mar 2016, 01:19

Since it is becoming more of a usuap thing on the net, with elections nearing and all, and people just exaggerating as usual to get their point across and make any other candidate except their own (whos a saint ofc), here's some basic 101 before this board too becomes GD - politics.

1) No view is necessarily bad. Literally none. You can say whatever you want, but if you back it up with facts and not just spam, then it could be generally accepted.
2) Serious discussion is supposed to be serious. Hating on people because memes, doesnt really make a whole lot of sense in an argument.
3) Don't forget that your opinion is 95% biased by the media you are following. Either spend some actual time researching both sides of the argument, or dont start it.
Thats my opinion at least.
example given:
Hillary Clinton is a better candidate than bernie sanders as far as democrats are concerned, because while she may not have the people first and foremost, she has better dealings with most companies, and companies are what the US ecomomy is based on atm, not its people.

just have an idea i'd like to tack onto this, these are all very good btw (don't necessarily agree with the first one because there are some views that pretty much are bad no matter how you look at it; ie. negative views towards a minority)

4) it's a debate not an argument. don't b upset at someone because they have different views from you, just try to accept it. maybe you're the one who's wrong, maybe they are, but don't yell at them for it, show them the facts. (it's hard but healthier than getting angry every time someone says something against your beliefs)
that was dramatic. still ready 2 die tho!
