>Reason for Mod Action:
While that vote is quite accurate, doesn't tell us anything about the debate we didn't know from just the title (most likely a comedy debate, which are intentionally absurd and need not be punished for that)
In essence, this vote was just too vague... This can be avoided in future by just commenting on the core contention (and the main counterpoint or the lack thereof), listing a single source you found important (if voting sources), saying what conduct violation distracted you (if voting conduct)... You need not write a thesis, but some minimal level of detail is required to verify knowledge of what you're grading.

I am gay.
What are you (out of the straight, gay, bi, ace quadchotomy)?
If I was straight, I would pray for God to cure me.
That pill shouldn't exist as there is nothing wrong with being straight.
"There should probably be some pill that can cure people from being straight."
It's called cyanide. It also cures depression.
There should probably be some pill that can cure people from being straight.
->Straight sex is responsible for creating pedophiles, so if you hate pedophiles, you also have to hate straight sex which produces pedophiles.
I would only hate the ejaculations that produce kids that turn out to be pedos, but you can't predict the future.
Straight sex is responsible for creating pedophiles, so if you hate pedophiles, you also have to hate straight sex which produces pedophiles.
Alright; well you don't punish parents for the murder (or pedophilia) done by their sons, so what's your point?
Straight sex produced pedophiles.
Not true; many crimes are done by non-straights. Most crimes will be done by straights because most people are straight.
Straight people are responsible for all crimes that happen.
Does not matter. We need to do a genocide on pedos. Just put them in a camp and let them be target practice for our soldiers. I hate pedos more than I love children.
Most of the pedophiles are straight.
Trust me, being a pedo is way worse than being straight. Pedos are objectively inferior to normal people; it's why they don't get hired; because them being pedos inheritely makes them inferior human beings. Their best purpose is being experimented on painkiller free to help out good non-pedophilles. Other than that, they have no use in society.
Pedos belong in concentration camps and we need to go death con 5 on them, like for real.
"What would be your penalty for being straight?"
I dont know, but being straight is an abomination.
This doesn't justify banning a sexuality 95% or so of the population has.
What would be your penalty for being straight?
Thats a good point. If it was illegal to be straight, there wouldnt be any kids suffering in foster care.
Who would produce the foster kids if it's illegal to be straight?
Yes.
Why not?
They would adopt instead.
How is that different from regular reproduction?
why?
How would people reproduce if straight couples are banned?
