Description
I will waive R1, the contender will bring forth his/her/their topic and I will give my opinion along with the argument backing it up in R2. Truism topics are allowed, it is just I will argue for the truism voluntarily. ;>
Any dirty tricks in textual form is(and should be) allowed as long as they don't directly violate the CoC. Forfeits do not amount to anything else except for the usual missed opportunities plus the truncated conduct point. Have fun.
I have participated in the 2000th debate ever created, it is time for it to double.

Hands down the hardest topic I have accepted in 2022 because it is usually easier to prove a negative than a positive.
Per my own rules you are supposed to say this in your R1. Oh well I have seen this one round too late, so the first round is wasted.
Debate will be whether a father figure is more important than a mother figure, vice versa.
