No clue who this guy is or how he got a speaking gig at all (let alone Tedx) but you absolutely SHOULD NOT engage folks in this way. This is not in any way how you 'win a debate' or 'how to debate'. He's missing the greater point. Social media discussions (arguments) are NOT about the person you are talking to. They are about the thousands and thousands of eyeballs on the debate. Win the hearts of the people watching, and there too, will be your victory. I literally laughed out loud for his last step (be open minded) when he CLEARLY was not open minded to the beliefs of 'Little Facebook Guy'. He just erased everything he said prior in showing that he couldn't adhere to his own rules of engagement.
As soon as he started using a "debate" on Facebook I was only going watch this as satire. You simply don't argue on Facebook the same way you debate in person. Most people are dogmatic keyboard warriors on the internet. I agree as well, I'm surprised that he got away with this...
I completely agree with your observations and conclusion. Interesting how a person who wants to be open minded and honest admitts to trolling someone on social media. Just another normal day for liberals I suppose.
How do you ‘win’ a debate? It depends on the standards for victory are. If you’re goal is to convert others to your ideas, it involves a long suffering process of vetting the subject in your own mind, sharing it without fear, enduring ridicule of those who put very little thought into the topic, listening to criticism, and realizing ‘victory’ can be won only by the consent of others. If your goal is cheap ‘burns’ designed to give you a dopamine rush and self affirmation; hashtags, meme images, and other forms of comforting reductionism will do fine.

This is not "how to debate" , period. This is "how a liberal debates". This so called 5 step process to success is actually what keeps many failing in political debates. Sure you may add a fact in the beginning, but you destroy that when you go towards emotion, implying feelings are more important than facts. And here's a little fact to prove that: When the guy had a great title "How to win a political debate" , he decided to destroy it all by changing the title to "How to debate", because he knows his way will almost never work. The reason to debate is to show why your argument is better, making you the winner of the ultimate competition. To win a formal discussion on a particular topic in a public meeting or legislative assembly, in which opposing arguments are put forward, is the real prize. The main point here is, people don't want to know how to debate (unless you haven't been through elementary school/ Or if you don't have a dictionary), but rather how to win one. That should have been the TED talk, not whatever *that* was. +not to mention the misleading title.
Step 5 should be Step 1. Unless you share with the person a mutual curiosity there is no reason for conversation. Even if you win, you lose bc the other hardens themselves in their resolve and maybe even becomes more bitter. Mostly though, the idea that we should all talk politics is such bad advice. Instead, invest in the person in absentia of politics. Sew into them. Bless them where they are willing to be blessed. Buy them a beer or a coffee. Talk about anything else. When the person wants to scrutinize ideas they will come to you and you will have a much more firm foundation of friendship to do as much. Last, don't talk politics at the holidays. This used to go without saying. It used to be deemed impolite. Family time is blessed by peace. Lording your politics over others desire for peace and fellowship only makes people recoil from your position.
The strategy of frustrating someone first may feel good, but usually makes them dig their toes in. I'd say to skip that part and use the rest of the video.

The description says " a scientific approach.... " where is the scientific part ????? A book about argumentation and reasoning is a million times better than this B.S
The Scientific part is approacing an argument with social psychology in mind. While I disagree with the presenter over the effectivness of his strategy; psychology is a promising way of conducting and argument.
Politics has always been something you were not to discuss (along with religion) as an employee of a business (started with bartenders-I believe). THAT somehow went away.....and it needs to return.
Im “Very” interested in politics, I love to pick peoples brain, and debate “fundamental” issue, and yes, I would love to do this in a respectful manner, but we always come to a roadblock, but, believe it or not, We are on the same side, left vs right, it doesn’t matter , wether you agree or not, we are on the same side. We have the same basic goals, example, we raise our kids, work, and want the best for our loved ones and friends, while having some fun along the way, then we grow old and pass along. Now there are specific issues that “try to” separate us, wether you agree with abortion or gerrymandering, those random issues somehow separate us, or gun laws. And thats the part where we all can agree on this issue, like seat belts in cars, or alarms in our house, it basically means the same thing, Once your formally educated on anything, we are able to debate any item about anything, if your formally or properly educated and informed on that specific issue you are debating, you can have a respectful debate, but, and heres the kicker, when propaganda and misinformation are involved, that one sided party member, arguing nonsense is where this “roadblock” is coming from, and it ruined friendly debates, and makes it impossible to have a decent political conversation. Sadly, this misinformation tactic was started years ago, with Roger Ailes. (Known for helping Richard Nixon, spreading lies and in later years pushing propaganda)
@Tom Cizzle Um guys can we not call people 'commie filth' for having differing political views. It's important to understand that everyone has a right to free association, and even though we all may agree to disagree with each other on certain things, we should remain civil and respectful in our debates and discussions.
Tom Cizzle literally just because someone has a different opinion than you, doesn’t mean you have the right to call them a name. Also why tf would assume that they riot just bc u disagree on one subject.
TEDx talks are always embarassingly horrible. He starts by saying it's not a game of "wins and loses" and then ends by saying you have to "win little battles." What a fool.
I watched the whole video and paid attention the entire time. If the amount of disagreement (avoiding the nonsense that is anti-gay of course) in the comments is any indication it's that YOU didn't pay attention. You simply slapped whatever sticker of explanation on top of a, rather unintelligible, TEDx talk and are acting like it was half decent. His points are scattered and unclear. His general "purpose" to this talk is undefined. It's not my fault he decided to "wing it" and is getting blasted. I bet you're the speaker and you're mad someone on the internet doesn't agree with you. lol
7:28 This is why we don’t see any debates on Left vs Right. One of the sides (I won’t name which side), refuses to debate, and refuses the address facts & statistics
Blizz Joe Rogan, Ben Shapiro, Brett Weinstein, Eric Weinstein, Dave Rubin, Tim Pool, Steven Crowder, Jordan Peterson, Sam Harris, among many many many others have reached out countless times to many, many, many members of the Left for public discussions. Only to be rejected. Every time. It is not equal.
The whole idea that you can engender a logical discussion by first insulting the other party to elicit an emotional response is preposterous. I am now questioning TEDx and their integrity as an intellectual platform.
His response was not insulting. He gave two hashtags. One stating that "love won" and the other one was just a facepalm -Which essentially the equivalent of using an emoji. No one was insulted. It was just to elicit a response.
This talk was fine for the substance but could have been better with less sneering in the earlier stages and more of Step 5. Made it look like a trick rather than a method.
In a room full of intellectuals and scholars he feels comfortable taking a liberal stance as an example of winning a debate. Let's all let this sink in, lol.
God will have his victory over you and your beliefs along with everyone else who doesn't believe in God! Time is very short and all will know the truth in the comming years!
Time is short and you have failed to consider the thousands of other gods you don’t believe in who could send you to eternal torment worse than being flayed alive and torn limb from limb for the sin of going to the wrong church. Not to mention the limitless fictional gods we have yet to create in addition to the Christian one.
@@DCrandomwords Nonsense, and you are not knowledgeable of what you are commenting about... In reality you are only parroting assertions, in an attempt to make a psuedo philosophical argument. You're just making your case, via informal fallacy, for your contempt for Jesus Christ... There are not a thousand gods, those are false gods... The Lord our God is one!
Jack Bailey Every religión to have existed claims the others are lying. For a religion to truly have factual basis to stand on, it would need to make claims which are consistently profound and accurate. The Bible delivers profound and accurate statements at a rate I would imagine is worse than random. The clearest example would be the creation myth which no sane rational person can be expected to believe with knowledge of modern science. Furthermore, there are dozens of instances within the Bible where it contradicts itself and if you’d like me to just list several, ask me and I can.
David C Okay David I'll bite, bring on your proof of contradictions in the Bible, I'll play along. I read your reference to facts and consistency, and somehow I'm suspicious that this means you, acting as the Arbiter. My prediction is you will ascribe your interpretation of meaning to "facts", and reject what truth and reality are.
I am a conservative too. Quick note though I am not from the USA, so I may not be educated on any Trump topics. I would be open to a debate of anyone's choosing other than Trump for the reason I stated before. If anyone is interested @ me.
Funny, conservatives aren't burning businesses down. As for submission to authority? Shall not comply is a favorite saying among constitutionalists. Out of our cold dead hands is another example. Now we do have a set of morals that we follow. For example stealing or violating someone's property rights is bad. Put yourself in the shoes of the victim.
Church is not the only way to get married. Civil union is not as legally binding as marriage, not as recognised and not equal. It's about seeing all people have the same basic rights.
The problem is that marriage isn't just a Christian thing. It makes it harder to adopt when you are not married; you cannot see your spouse in a hospital when they are unconscious because they cannot consent to it. It's a governmental institution at this point, not a religious one.
What a condescending speech. Essentially you claim to have an open mind, but decided that you needed to get his attention with a dramatic response, then talk about how superior your win was over his response that he was going to pray about it.
Love wins?? No, rebellion against God wins...temporarily, that is. Appeal to their sense of morality?? Seriously?? Galatians 6:7,8 "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting."
I think everyone should be able to marry and person they want. But the Supreme Court decision was Soooooooo illegal. The Constitution doesn't give the Supreme Court the right to deal with marriage, so the job falls to the states. So they stomped on states' rights.
This talk is terrible. This guys is such an elitist, how about you give a talk on how to exchange ideas in 5 easy steps. You could start with take the patronising tone out of your tone, then perhaps people might be open to be persuaded.
These ideas are so factually inaccurate I'm going to just point out my favorite 2 to save time. 1. EMOTIONS are not the first thing you have after an outward experience. The first thing reaction you have is a THOUGHT. This thought then determines which emotion it is that you'll have. This guy doesn't like to think that a thought comes before an emotion because he prefers to believe that it's our emotions that form the base of our cognitive makeup, when in reality it's our thoughts which are. 2. The BINDING FOUNDATIONS that are supposed to describe rightist leanings can apply to both ends of the political spectrum. Liberals are just as easily swayed by a political or kingly demigod that's enforced on their minds so by the oldest of fake news, propaganda. Fairness and reciprocity which he tries to say are purely liberal values, fall away when despite getting taxed an equal amount as the left, conservatives still stay more likely to give to charity than people of the same income on the left. They're more likely to prefer keeping their extra money for themselves than give it away. Also the in-group loyalty is far more exemplified by the left now than is to be found in the right, who believes in the supreme being of the individual rights for each person. Look at the parroting chants at a liberal rally to tell you that everyone there only ever feels accepted when they've first made their opinions to be in uniform synchronicity with their peers. Internal debate on the left hurts.
Omg I did not read the comments before I made my first Comment now I can honestly say what a load of nonsense. Ever so disappointment. Waist of my time
He gives a misleading representation of liberal vs conservative. He may know about psychology but he certainly failed to learn the fundamentals of politics.
This is the reason politics causes so much harm, that being right is more important than the truth.

well.. that right there is one of the issues. You're trying to convert people and feel entitled to it, because of the way you approached them.
What do you mean by 'win'? To humiliate your opponent and beat them into submission? Or to debate and counter on the merits of the argument in order to persuade your opponent?
To present facts, evidence is to teach. Learning is measured as a change in behavior or perception.
He said marriage is a human right... It's a religiously made, government recognized financial bond between two people for tax purposes. Why is government-recognized marriage a human right? Why isn't the physical bond?
Because he 'feels' this way, rather than thinking himself into any of his positions. You can't tell from the fact that 1. it's TED, 2. he has a lisp?
God you dudes are sad, get a life, and stop worrying who gets married
Okay, So with your argument a man and a woman shouldn't be government recognized either, correct? So everyone loses their benefits if they are married?
When I saw the TED Talk recommendation with this title I never could have guessed the speaker's political beliefs...
same i had to exit
I'm not a churchgoer, but the jab about praying at the end...
He almost had me.
Don’t let your opponent talk
If they try, talk over them
Call them a liar
Continue not letting them talk

Politicians exploit our fear to the point of crazy. It’s not an accident that public and political discourse both have deteriorated.
Watch this guy, then go watch a video of Christopher Hitchens debate and you tell me which one has your confidence.
The description says " a scientific approach.... " where is the scientific part ?????
A book about argumentation and reasoning is a million times better than this B.S
Well said. Like 99% of Ted talks - it's VERY weak & shallow.
I agree 🌟
The Scientific part is approacing an argument with social psychology in mind. While I disagree with the presenter over the effectivness of his strategy; psychology is a promising way of conducting and argument.
Politics has always been something you were not to discuss (along with religion) as an employee of a business (started with bartenders-I believe). THAT somehow went away.....and it needs to return.
annoyed it says WWU instead of UWU
Im “Very” interested in politics, I love to pick peoples brain, and debate “fundamental” issue, and yes, I would love to do this in a respectful manner, but we always come to a roadblock, but, believe it or not, We are on the same side, left vs right, it doesn’t matter , wether you agree or not, we are on the same side.
We have the same basic goals, example, we raise our kids, work, and want the best for our loved ones and friends, while having some fun along the way, then we grow old and pass along.
Now there are specific issues that “try to” separate us, wether you agree with abortion or gerrymandering, those random issues somehow separate us, or gun laws. And thats the part where we all can agree on this issue, like seat belts in cars, or alarms in our house, it basically means the same thing, Once your formally educated on anything, we are able to debate any item about anything, if your formally or properly educated and informed on that specific issue you are debating, you can have a respectful debate, but, and heres the kicker, when propaganda and misinformation are involved, that one sided party member, arguing nonsense is where this “roadblock” is coming from, and it ruined friendly debates, and makes it impossible to have a decent political conversation. Sadly, this misinformation tactic was started years ago, with Roger Ailes. (Known for helping Richard Nixon, spreading lies and in later years pushing propaganda)
Lol cnn watched this and made a new business model
Fox News watched this and said “maybe we should stop showing the fakest news possible”
Leftwinghypehouse TM they’re literally the least biased mainstream news source
@Tom Cizzle Um guys can we not call people 'commie filth' for having differing political views. It's important to understand that everyone has a right to free association, and even though we all may agree to disagree with each other on certain things, we should remain civil and respectful in our debates and discussions.
Tom Cizzle literally just because someone has a different opinion than you, doesn’t mean you have the right to call them a name. Also why tf would assume that they riot just bc u disagree on one subject.
Kidvaush TM they’re the most reliable mainstream news source, they’re 52% right and 48% left. cnn is 94% left, 6% right.
Step 2... the step no liberal has ever done.
TEDx talks are always embarassingly horrible. He starts by saying it's not a game of "wins and loses" and then ends by saying you have to "win little battles."
What a fool.
>Whines about bullying
>Tries to bully someone while whining about bullying
>Typical TEDx viewer
Nice try tho, bro
I watched the whole video and paid attention the entire time. If the amount of disagreement (avoiding the nonsense that is anti-gay of course) in the comments is any indication it's that YOU didn't pay attention. You simply slapped whatever sticker of explanation on top of a, rather unintelligible, TEDx talk and are acting like it was half decent. His points are scattered and unclear. His general "purpose" to this talk is undefined. It's not my fault he decided to "wing it" and is getting blasted.
I bet you're the speaker and you're mad someone on the internet doesn't agree with you. lol
i will revoke my comments to end this petty argument.
I think I just won a "little battle," but I didn't win a battle 'cause it's not about winning.
lol... gg bro
If that's how you choose to interpret this
Come to India Sir, here politics is in the air.
This is a very generic style for debating. Not going to work with all people... This speaker needs to learn general NLP concepts.
fredocorleone it was a 17 minute speech not a 3 hour dissertation. the title implies simplification ie "easy steps."
i once beat him in a debate
That is a lot of energy and effort to expend on someone who at their core doesn’t give AF. At my core, I have better ways I’d like to spend my time.
It is so unfortunate that people just yearn to trounce someone all the time.
why does the crowd have better audio then the speaker???
7:28
This is why we don’t see any debates on Left vs Right. One of the sides (I won’t name which side), refuses to debate, and refuses the address facts & statistics
Both sides fairly equally refuse to debate and present facts a lot of the time. I’m a leftist btw.
Blizz
Joe Rogan, Ben Shapiro, Brett Weinstein, Eric Weinstein, Dave Rubin, Tim Pool, Steven Crowder, Jordan Peterson, Sam Harris, among many many many others have reached out countless times to many, many, many members of the Left for public discussions. Only to be rejected. Every time.
It is not equal.
@@thunderbirdizations oh brother, you’re a conservative. Hold up a sec.

Only two or three of those names are conservatives. You just proved my point.
Blizz it’s nice to know your tone dramatically changes the INSTANT you know what side I’m in though 😒

Good Job Cousin.....very proud of you.
Christopher Kocincki shouldn't be
The whole idea that you can engender a logical discussion by first insulting the other party to elicit an emotional response is preposterous. I am now questioning TEDx and their integrity as an intellectual platform.
His response was not insulting. He gave two hashtags. One stating that "love won" and the other one was just a facepalm -Which essentially the equivalent of using an emoji. No one was insulted. It was just to elicit a response.
He thinks the 2016 election was super controversial? Wait until the 2020 election. It gets worse
Wait til the first week of 2021...
This talk was fine for the substance but could have been better with less sneering in the earlier stages and more of Step 5. Made it look like a trick rather than a method.
“Do you see CNN as fair an honest?” If they say yes, just ignore them they aren’t worth ya time
Same goes for Fox News lol
In a room full of intellectuals and scholars he feels comfortable taking a liberal stance as an example of winning a debate. Let's all let this sink in, lol.
A room full of intellectuals and scholars? What? Lol
I'm curious to what you think "Facebook guy's" argument would actually be in the scenario presented.
God will have his victory over you and your beliefs along with everyone else who doesn't believe in God! Time is very short and all will know the truth in the comming years!
I might've missed it, but did he mention not believing in God?
Time is short and you have failed to consider the thousands of other gods you don’t believe in who could send you to eternal torment worse than being flayed alive and torn limb from limb for the sin of going to the wrong church. Not to mention the limitless fictional gods we have yet to create in addition to the Christian one.
@@DCrandomwords Nonsense, and you are not knowledgeable of what you are commenting about...
In reality you are only parroting assertions, in an attempt to make a psuedo philosophical argument.
You're just making your case, via informal fallacy, for your contempt for Jesus Christ... There are not a thousand gods, those are false gods... The Lord our God is one!
Jack Bailey Every religión to have existed claims the others are lying. For a religion to truly have factual basis to stand on, it would need to make claims which are consistently profound and accurate. The Bible delivers profound and accurate statements at a rate I would imagine is worse than random. The clearest example would be the creation myth which no sane rational person can be expected to believe with knowledge of modern science. Furthermore, there are dozens of instances within the Bible where it contradicts itself and if you’d like me to just list several, ask me and I can.
David C Okay David I'll bite, bring on your proof of contradictions in the Bible, I'll play along. I read your reference to facts and consistency, and somehow I'm suspicious that this means you, acting as the Arbiter.
My prediction is you will ascribe your interpretation of meaning to "facts", and reject what truth and reality are.
If you want to have a debate with me just reply. Btw I’m republican/conservative
The Occulus i do
I think I might like to
The Occulus I do. Trump hasn’t overall improved any issue change my mind
Well this comment died
I am a conservative too. Quick note though I am not from the USA, so I may not be educated on any Trump topics. I would be open to a debate of anyone's choosing other than Trump for the reason I stated before. If anyone is interested @ me.
Canned laughter? Canned laughter.
There was a Trump masterclass last night... ‘bludgeoning’ seems quite an effective approach.
This guy lost me when he spent less time on whatever the title of this presentation was, and more on his own issues.
I'm totally offended that he didn't include the Q and + crowd, only LGBT people....
Morality 👏🏻
this really is awful woah i cant believe i even watched it as far as I did he really used 2 hashtags and acted like he won the world over lmfao
does anyone know what irony is?
To whom do I report Word abuse?
Funny, conservatives aren't burning businesses down. As for submission to authority? Shall not comply is a favorite saying among constitutionalists. Out of our cold dead hands is another example. Now we do have a set of morals that we follow. For example stealing or violating someone's property rights is bad. Put yourself in the shoes of the victim.
Inwardly liberal, outwardly conservative. This is the subconscious mantra, unsuccessfully suppressed by the outward conservative.
Liberal or conservative?
Flu3nt 916 I lean liberal.
@@georgequilitz8530 3 years later, Conservative.
Why not just get a civil union?Then you would not need to be married by an organization that thinks you are a sinner?
Church is not the only way to get married. Civil union is not as legally binding as marriage, not as recognised and not equal. It's about seeing all people have the same basic rights.
I don't understand why the churchies have decided that 'marriage' is some sacred Christian term when it predates the Christian faith by millennia.
Separate but equal is never equal.
Why assume that I married my husband in a church?
The problem is that marriage isn't just a Christian thing. It makes it harder to adopt when you are not married; you cannot see your spouse in a hospital when they are unconscious because they cannot consent to it. It's a governmental institution at this point, not a religious one.
Spoiler Alert: He's a progressive. Title should read: How to agitate and win an argument against crazy conservatives.
So you assume there are no crazy people on the other half, there are and way more than on the right
I sometimes wonder if the guy im arguing online about some meaningless politics wether that person is about as old as him or looks like him.
Instruction unclear I am now a political prisoner
What a condescending speech. Essentially you claim to have an open mind, but decided that you needed to get his attention with a dramatic response, then talk about how superior your win was over his response that he was going to pray about it.
Nothing wrong with calling people out on their ignorance. You don't want to succumb to insults though.
Doesn't this sound more like DARVO advice rather than debate advice?
Love wins?? No, rebellion against God wins...temporarily, that is. Appeal to their sense of morality?? Seriously?? Galatians 6:7,8 "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting."
6 minutes into it and it's just him sharing a troll post he made
Great ideas 👌, thank you
Yoo i wanna debate this guy
no way you win a argument with a liberal going at them with this lol
Stephen R this is how a liberal would go after a conservative
why do you think you know what all liberals are like?

@@annieruiz3317 you just literally repeated what you said before, literally zero reasoning
Seems legit
I think everyone should be able to marry and person they want. But the Supreme Court decision was Soooooooo illegal. The Constitution doesn't give the Supreme Court the right to deal with marriage, so the job falls to the states. So they stomped on states' rights.
Facts don't care about your feelings
marriage isn't a human right...
just thinking of the myriad of ways Ben Shapiro would immolate Joshua Thompson.
This talk is terrible. This guys is such an elitist, how about you give a talk on how to exchange ideas in 5 easy steps. You could start with take the patronising tone out of your tone, then perhaps people might be open to be persuaded.
These ideas are so factually inaccurate I'm going to just point out my favorite 2 to save time.
1. EMOTIONS are not the first thing you have after an outward experience. The first thing reaction you have is a THOUGHT. This thought then determines which emotion it is that you'll have. This guy doesn't like to think that a thought comes before an emotion because he prefers to believe that it's our emotions that form the base of our cognitive makeup, when in reality it's our thoughts which are.
2. The BINDING FOUNDATIONS that are supposed to describe rightist leanings can apply to both ends of the political spectrum. Liberals are just as easily swayed by a political or kingly demigod that's enforced on their minds so by the oldest of fake news, propaganda. Fairness and reciprocity which he tries to say are purely liberal values, fall away when despite getting taxed an equal amount as the left, conservatives still stay more likely to give to charity than people of the same income on the left. They're more likely to prefer keeping their extra money for themselves than give it away. Also the in-group loyalty is far more exemplified by the left now than is to be found in the right, who believes in the supreme being of the individual rights for each person. Look at the parroting chants at a liberal rally to tell you that everyone there only ever feels accepted when they've first made their opinions to be in uniform synchronicity with their peers. Internal debate on the left hurts.
bring on sargon
as a speaker pls
Sam Hyde was better.
Not worth the time. Just a social justice warrior story.
Sounds like you are making a debate on 🏳️🌈 more than political debates. Tedx is becoming lame…I’m sure you can do better than this guy.
That walrus on the left could not keep up with the one on the right...
