I mean I overall agree with you. I think only showing the worst of the other side isn't a good tactic if your point is to educate and accurately portray your ideological opposition. I think what we can get out of this (and we all know both the left and the right do it) is that there's a lot of dumb people with very strong opinions out there, and that, in the end, they're the ones digging their movement's grave, proving the stereotypes. The left should condemn those on their side who act like lunatics, and the same goes to the right.

That being said, is this what Kirk did? Going through his channel there's a lot of full debates he's had in different campuses. Sure, there's other shorter format videos with dumb titles, but that's just him playing the Youtube game as everyone does. Point is that if you're interested in not being misinformed, you can choose to watch the full videos and see the complete context. It's all there.

Why do you think he was debating college students anyway and not, ya know, politicians, lawyers, economists, or statisticians?

Pretty sure he did? Though maybe those videos are not in his channel for copyright purposes or whatever. That's just how it is sometimes with Youtube.

But other than that, do you not think it's very important to have those conversations in college, a place where you go learn about the world? I think it is.

Look at all the shady comments about universities "radicalizing the youth", give me a break.

I mean, do you not think most colleges aren't left-leaning at the very least? Right wing ideas have been demonized for more than a decade at this point. Do you not think people are being taught to think left instead of thinking for themselves?
