Clip from a discussion between two people, one wearing a MAGA hat. The non-MAGA person asks how many continents there are. The MAGA person answers that there are hundreds. The other person says that there are seven.

It's been interesting to watch the rise of essentially professional debaters debating with unknowledgeable randoms. I've seen it politically both ways. It would be nice to see a proper debate format, aka 5 minutes opening statements, 15 minutes main argument, 15 minutes rebuttal, and 5 minutes closing statements between two knowledge debaters on opposite sides of the political spectrum. It wouldn't be rage bait clippy algorithm inducing content but it would be a lot more intriguing.
