Alternatives to using whataboutisms in debate.

[brainbomb]

Rather than using whataboutisms to deflect others talking points I have some alternative suggestions.

1. Just keep repeating “nah bro”

2. Walking away, leaving the conversation abruptly and pretend to have covid.

3. Just keep staring blankly at the other persons complete idiocy

4. Have a noise making device or an airhorn handy and just keep playing it everytime they say something absurd

5. Pretend to agree with that persons talking points and then randomly absorb their idealogy and make it even more idiotic.

6. Become that person. Just completely change all your beliefs and ignore all the hipocrisy. Embrace sheeping stupidity.

7. Commit an arson for some reason

Commit an arson? Surely it's commit an act of arson, or just plain old commit arson. Commit an arson? Nah, bro, that's just plain stupid.

Anyway, must dash... there's an odd feeling in the back of my throat that makes me think the lurgy is fast approaching

Oral debate is for more energetic people. I prefer written correspondence. Most of these tactics aren't applicable in it. #7 (which I think is intended as a variation of the dead cat strategy) doesn't work, because you can answer when you have convenient time.
