Illuminati
Deposes Puppet Ruler Airmax
By Conspi
Theo
Last month,
the moderation team removed DART President Airmax1227 from office on the
grounds that he had been inactive for months. Deputy Moderator Supadudz said
that “Airmax has not properly fulfilled his duty as
president”. This is, of course, a bald-faced lie. Airmax did indeed fulfill his
duty of being a puppet of the Illuminati. His disappearance from the site was
the plan all along. When the people demanded a president to represent them, the
reptilian mods had no choice but to go along with it. However, they hatched a
plan to sabotage the office of president and installed a known yes-man, Airmax,
who would do what they want. By having him stay inactive, they deprived the
members of DART of representation for an entire year. And they thought we
wouldn’t notice! We’re on to your tricks, Illuminati scum!

Novice_II Closes
in on oromagi in Debate Rating
By Carl Engels
Just over five months after starting
his new account, Novice_II has reached, at the time of this writing, an
incredible debate rating of 1899, only 23 points short than the site leader,
oromagi. Oromagi has led the debate rankings for over three years, boasting a record
of 114 wins and only 3 losses. However, one of those losses is to Novice_II.
The pair have sparred twice, with each debater claiming a win. Perhaps more
impressively, Novice_II has achieved this level despite continually thumbing
his nose at the website bourgeoisie. His position as an uncompromising champion
of the proletariat has made him a controversial figure, and a true hero of the
revolution. In the background, users Intelligence_06 and RationalMadman are
also gaining rating. The anti-elite RationalMadman has once again passed 1800
rating and is quickly gaining on the leaders. We have a full blown fight for
the crown, comrades. Who will triumph? The upstart proletariat hero? The elite
member of the bourgeoisie? The Chinese prodigy? Or the fiery veteran? Only time
will tell!

Debates Debating
Debaters Divide DARTers
By Trum Porter
If you’ve been here long, you’ve seen
the recurring threads about who the best debaters are. This topic has once
again surged to the forefront as some users challenge whether the most highly
rated debaters on DART are any good. The most high-profile of these
conversations was in the debate “Barney is not a good debater”, in which
thinking conservative Vici OWNED and DESTROYED progressive soyboy Barney. Meanwhile,
oromagi has once again taken fire for his continual noob sniping and has been
EXPOSED as the DemoRAT loser he really is. Everyone knows the real champion is
SirAnonymous, who PROVED his dominance in this brilliant thread. Yup, this
complete pwnage is going on YouTube!

Opinion: This Is
the Most Important Election Of Our Lifetime… So Far.
By Grandpa Curmudgeon
Yup, here we go again. Tomorrow is
Election Tuesday, the only holiday where we all agree that we all hate each
other. And I tell you what, son, this is the most important election of your
lifetime… so far. Back in my day, we all voted. And guess what? We’re all still
voting, cuz modern healthcare made sure that we lived this long. But when we
voted, we had to go uphill, both ways, in the snow, past the lions, over the
alligator moat, and through the dungeons and dragons just to get to the voting
booth. And it was worth it because that was the most important election of our
lives. The next one was too. And the next one. In fact, now that I’m thinking
about it, I reckon that every election I’ve ever voted in was the most
important one of my lifetime. But you kids got it easy. The most you gotta remember
when you vote is that you have to bring your own water or ask the poll workers
for one. Such suffering, kid. So get out there and vote. It's the most
important election of your lifetime, so far. The next one will be too. You’ll
catch on.
Editor’s Note:
But seriously, go vote. Unless you’re not American. But only Americans are on
the internet, so that’s not an issue.

DART Mafia
Players Open Violin Cases After Conspiracy Theory Mafia
By ScumAnonymous
After a raucous game of Conspiracy
Theory mafia, the post-mortem arguments devolved into a Valentine’s day event. Pie
and RM were the first to open their violin cases and start emptying magazines
in each other’s direction after a spat over each other’s mafia skills – or, as
they might say of each other, the lack thereof. Other mafiosos joined in as the
situation spiraled out of control. Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot released a statement
warning citizens of the danger. “There is an ongoing mafia shootout, so please
be aware. I’d ask you all to stay in interior rooms away from windows, but everyone’s
already doing that, because this is Chicago, after all.” Thankfully, the drum
magazines on everyone’s Thompson submachine guns jammed, ending the shootout.

End of an Era: Users Preserve DDO History as Juggle Shuts It Down
By Environmental Wacko
One week ago, Debate.org, commonly referred to as DDO, was shut down by its controversial owner, Juggle. For years, DDO was home to a thriving indigineous community of debaters. After being acquired by Juggle, the website sank into a sea of spam and trolls, prompting the majority of users to jump ship. Rather than attempt to conserve this natural landmark, Juggle decided to attack the online debating environment by shutting the website down. In response, a variety of environmental activists banded together to preserve the legacy of their former habitat. Mharman set up a DDO history server that, among other things, included data from hundreds of mafia games. Meanwhile, USBurning archived the website’s debates, forums, profiles, and polls. While the environment-haters hold positions of power today, they will never win. It is up to us to ensure that the online debating environment will live on!

Report: Former DDO Trolls Struggle to Move on After Debate Bridge Collapses
By Carl Engels
After DDO’s descent into irrelevance, it became home to an unending stream of trolls sheltering under its bridge. Now that the bourgeoisie at Juggle have taken down the website, these trolls have suddenly found themselves without a home. According to reports, this had led to severe cases of anxiety, depression, and turning into stone after exposure to daylight. Comrades, we must help our proletariat brothers. Without the ability to promote conspiracy theories denying the existence of viruses or home-health remedies that would make even Gwynneth Paltrow retch or even openly promoting pedophilia, these trolls may be forced to do something other than spew lies, insults, and advertisements. Why, horror of horrors, they might be forced to enter the slavery and oppression of capitalism and - gasp- get a job! In fact, they might even -
“I don’t need your sympathy, you molon-labe screaming eel biting cataract with a rotund ball-bearing vanilla-rotten teeny bopper! That’s just your miss-steak, you hateful…”
Ahem! Actually, on second thought, maybe getting off the internet would be good for them.

DART Bard Editor Pretends That His Paper is Still Relevant
By Grandpa Curmudgeon
Oh look, guess who’s back. Yup, it’s that guy who thinks he’s sooo funny that he writes a paper called the DART Bard. Just you watch that punk pretend that no one noticed he and his crummy paper disappeared for months. That rapscallion is just going to pretend that his paper is still relevant, isn’t he? Well, back in my day, if you opened a business, you worked. When I was yer age, I didn’t slack off and miss work. No sirree, I was there every day from sunup to sundown working. But now you can just disappear from work for a year and then come back like you never left? Kids these days. Irresponsable, lazy slackers.

RationalMadman Foils Illuminati and Reaches Second Place on Leaderboard
By Conspi Theo
After climbing up the debate leaderboard, former King of the Hill RationalMadman recently reached second place on the leaderboard. His rating peaked at 1800, making him the second debater to reach the mark, following only the legendary shapeshifting reptilian oromagi. He has also passed 400 debates. But the Illuminati isn’t finished yet, friends! They’ve sabotaged RM and brought him back down to third! It’s clear that they’ve corrupted the moderators and are trying to claim the leaderboard for themselves. They’ve obviously used chemtrails to brainwash voters into voting against him. You all need to wake up, sheeple!

Opinion: Chuck Norris Doesn’t Lose Debates. Debates Lose Chuck Norris.
By ScumAnonymous
Currently, users Conservallectual and Intelligence06 are debating whether Chuck Norris is the most powerful man in the universe. As interesting as that topic is, I think it brings us all to an even more interesting and important topic: Chuck Norris doesn’t lose debates. Debates lose Chuck Norris. The first part is obvious. Chuck Norris has a grand total of zero debate losses on DART. That’s better than oromagi, pal. And this is because, as we all know, Chuck Norris is the most powerful force in the universe. So if you’ve lost a debate, then obviously you don’t have the most powerful force in the universe. You’ve lost Chuck Norris. So if you want to win debates, then harness your inner Chuck Norris and roundhouse kick your opponent’s arguments straight through the plot armor and back into the future!

Opinion: Missing Max
By Trump Porter
DART’s first elected president, airmax1227, has only made one post in the last four months. That makes him even sleepier than Sleepy Joe. What this clearly shows is that the presidential experiment has been a failure. The opponents of the office were correct. DART has no president. DART needs no president. No, ladies and gentleman, Republicans and DemoRATS, DART needs A KING. A king with the energy of Trump, the policies of America’s greatest president, the fighting spirit of The Donald. That’s right, folks. What DART needs is King Donald the Orange. Make DART Great Again!

Mafia Returns to DART
By ScumAnonymous
After months of inactivity in the forum games section, mafia has reasserted its presence on DART. Mharman is currently running an NFL mafia game, and WyIted has sign-up for a World Series of Poker game. As exciting as it is to see the game return to DART, it is a testimony to the fear-inducing reputation of the mafia that the game was absent for so long. Town cowered in terror at the mention of mafia! The mafia laughed and scorned town’s pathetic attempts to find them out! Now, with mafia’s return, we will once again terrorize the town! Muahahahaha!

Breaking News: Arrogant Punk Foolishly Tries to Compete with the Bard
By Grandpa Curmudgeon.
I just been down to the Post Office, and what do I see but some young punk tryin’ to compete with the DART Bard. Intelligence_06 – a rather ironic name, I do think – has started a satire paper called On the Bullseye. Yeah, punk, that’s exactly where my cane is headed. This young rip even markets his rag by saying, “You are looking at the main competitor of SirAnonymous' DART Bard, except, things here will always be more realistic, more reliable, and more anonymous than DART Bard.” Kids these days got no respect. No, they’re all trying to compete with established, respectable institutions like the Bard, thinking they can do better with all their new ideas. Listen, sonny, you got a lot to learn. All your big ideas ain’t gonna get you nowhere. New ideas never succeed; they’re never funny; they’re never worth working hard on and learning. I been here on this planet for many years now, and I ain’t never seen a new idea that was a good one. All you young lads can do what you like, but definitely don’t waste your time reading fresh satire with fresh ideas and fresh perspectives. It’s not worth your while, let me tell you that.

Report: Mike Prepares Website for the Inevitable Flood of Post-Election Tears
By ScumAnonymous.
According to sources, debateart.com owner Mike is preparing the website for an incoming influx of post-election tears. The United States presidential election is only two days away, and the website will need to be at its strongest to withstand this flood. Sources from across the political spectrum affirm that this is the most important election of our lifetimes (until the next election), which means that a flood of catastrophic intensity is expected. It is currently unclear whether these tears will be liberal or conservative tears. Our sources confirm that Mike is ready for either possibility. The type of tears could be a major issue, experts say. Liberal tears tend to be accompanied by loud screaming at the sky, demands for safe spaces, and mostly peaceful protests. Conservative tears, on the other hand, are more likely to be accompanied by mental breakdowns as Trump’s ardent supporters will be forced to come to terms with a situation they’ve refused to consider possible. However, experts are confidently predicting that there won’t be any third-party, independent, or Never-Trump tears. Despite the fact that their political beliefs dictate that they constantly lose, so they should be constantly crying, experts say they will be too busy preening themselves on their moral superiority over major-party voters to waste time crying.

Intelligence_06 Falls out of the Top 5 as MisterChris Jumps to Number 4
By Trum Porter
After three consecutive losses, Intelligence_06 has dropped out of the Top 5. Before his losing streak, he had blazed a fast path to the Top 5, taking less than three months to become a Challenger after opening a new account. As our revered leader would say, he won so much that he got tired of winning. However, DART members don’t have to quit winning just yet. MisterChris has risen to fourth place with a 16-debate winning streak that, according to experts, can only be described as“Terrific!” It will come as no surprise to TRUE patriots that MisterChris is a conservative and a Trump supporter. The regressive left just can’t compete with that much WINNING! In other news, Ragnar, who is a progressive, has passed Ramshutu to take 2nd place. But, uh, just ignore that one. It’s fake news. We all know that stupid libs don’t have any facts on their side, so he clearly won by voter fraud! Voters are totally biased toward leftist debaters, which is exactly why they voted against self-declared lib-left Intelligence_06 for 3 debates in a row and for conservative-leaning libertarian MisterChris for 16 debates in a row– um, I mean, uh, uh, nothing to see here!

Ragnar Passes Ramshutu to become the Number One Voter
By Conspi Theo
Ragnar passed Ramshutu’s record of 634 votes to become the number one voter on DART. At the time of this writing, he has reached a jaw-dropping 644 votes. However, all is not as it seems. Just nine days ago, he removed two votes on a debate. This slip-up exposes the reality behind his “record”: he’s achieved it by abusing his powers as a moderator to remove others’ votes. Why, you ask? Because he wants to appear as though he’s doing everyone on the site a great service with his votes, when he’s really a corrupt tyrant! He only got to first place by removing everyone else’s votes because he wanted all the credit for himself! In fact, he probably didn’t even write his own votes. That one time he removed those votes is proof that he is too lazy to actually vote enough to take the record, and being lazy is proof that he hasn’t written his own votes. The conclusion is unavoidable: Ragnar has been removing other people’s votes and copy-pasting their RFDs as his own. This completely speculative, baseless argument is unassailable proof of his corruption. Join me in my brave stand against this villain by doing absolutely nothing beyond complaining in contexts where I’m absolutely certain he won’t do anything about it. Together, we can stop this corruption!

Seldiora Celebrates Reaching the 100-Debate Milestone
By Environment Wacko
DART member and elderly statesman seldiora recently completed his 100th debate. He is currently at 102 completed debates, making him the third most prolific debater on the website. Reaching one hundred is a significant milestone in today’s world, in which the life expectancy is only in the 70s. Upon completing this achievement, the grey-headed fossil sagely commented, “100th debate, yay!” According to sources close to the antiquated relic, his longevity is, unsurprisingly, due to his great appreciation of the environment. Some of his recent debates include debating in support of alternative energy and drawing attention to climate change. His profile picture of trees illustrates his commitment to the environmentalist relig–er, cause. The only debaters on DART with a longer lifespan are Type1, who was laid to rest at 119, and RationalMadman, who is still going strong at 294. Some have compared RationalMadman to Methusaleh, but these people clearly hate science, because Methusaleh never existed and the Bible that claims he does is printed on trees. Clearly, then, people who make such comparisons are tools of environment-hating corporations who support deforestation. However, so as not to dwell on such things, let’s all congratulate seldiora on his impressive achievement and tell him how much we youngsters appreciate the contributions of 102-year-old antiques like him!

Op-Ed: Why the Rash of Debater Rankings is Sparking Class Division among DART Members
By Carl Engels
A series of threads have appeared on DART purporting to rank debaters by skill. The aforementioned senior citizen seldiora listed his top 10 debaters and described their abilities. BearMan chimed in with his own list, as did RationalMadman, ranking his top20 picks. At first, this all seems like innocent fun, until you start looking closer. Consider, comrades, what ranking is. Ranking is saying “This person is better than this person.” Putting debaters in the top 10 or 20 elevates them above their peers. This apparently innocent fun suddenly takes on more insidious qualities. Dividing people into classes is exactly what the bourgeoisie want. They want you to believe that you are inferior so you don’t rise up against them. Instead, they declare that they are better than the rest of us. Comrades, we must not be fooled by these capitalist tyrants. They want us to waste our time running in circles to get to the Top 10 so we also can be bourgeoisie. When they say, “These 10 are the best,” we say, “No, the people are the best.” We are the people, and we will not be seduced by the illusion of “skilled debating” that they promote!

I am entirely aware that no one actually thinks like this (I hope, anyway). I wonder whether anyone actually reads these copy-pasted disclaimers. This is completely satirical. None of the below content necessarily reflects my own opinions and beliefs.
Editor's Note: We are just twelve days out from the 2020 presidential election, and debate rages over who will win. By all appearances, we are on our way to a record turnout. If you're looking for clarity in these confusing times, then I have some good news for you: the Bard's experts have gathered together to give informed predictions about the election outcome. Without further ado, we will move on to their predictions.
Trum Porter: After the 2016 election, we all learned how inaccurate the polls are. Throughout the last four years, the media has spewed nonstop hate of the president. People know this, and they aren't going to tell pollsters from the fake news media that they're voting for Trump. The silent majority is out there in every state of the nation. It's going to be a fifty-state sweep for the president. The Republicans will sweep both houses of Congress and ensure that the best president in history will have as many terms as he needs to keep America great! The libs will be so triggered and run to their safe spaces while TRUE PATRIOTS laugh at their tears! MAGA!
Environmental Wacko: The polls were accurate in 2016, and they're accurate now. Trump will lose in a landslide, and all those racist Nazis who voted for him will be put in their place. It'll be so-o-o sweet to watch the conservative snowflakes cry. Hate will never win! Harris 2021! Er, I mean Biden/Harris 2020!
ScumAnonymous: Look, fellers, we all know how this is going to go down. Everyone's gonna be sitting on the edge of their seats on election night, but they ain't gonna get results. They won't get results the next day either. No way, pal. The election officials ain't gonna finish counting those early ballots for weeks. And when they do, a whole lotta swing states are gonna be real close. And then, pal, then the recounts begin. Both sides will accuse the other of cheating, and just before they start shootin', the results are gonna come back, and it'll be 269-269. At that point, it ain't gonna matter who wins. It'll all end in flames. And how do I know? Because 2020, pal, because 2020.
Carl Engels: An old, rich, corrupt, bourgeoisie member of the elite will win. He will trod all over the proletariat as they suffer. Which one? It doesn't matter. The bourgeoisie will laugh either way, safe in their positions of power. When the great revolution begins, they will know the feeling of a boot stamping on a human face, forever.
Conspi Theo: Does it really matter which lizard person wins? They're both part of "them". They're out to get you. I just saw a YouTube video that exposed their Satanic plot. Whichever one wins will shapeshift into the antichrist! We will see the establishment of the New World Order, Babylon the Great! The guy in the video also discovered why the Illuminati launched the plandemic. They needed to keep us all inside so we wouldn't see them send rockets to the moon to plant evidence that they really landed on the moon. Someone was about to figure it out, so they had to maintain the hoax! "They" are lying to you!
Editor's Note: If any of these predictions are wrong, the guy who made the YouTube video reserves the right to retain full prophetic credibility for any future predictions.
Grandpa Curmudgeon: Back in my day, America was already great. Didn't have none of these cheesy slogans. No sir, we had distinguished, sophisticated platforms like "I like Ike." Politicians didn't say the dumbest things you ever heard every time they opened their mouths. Leastways, if they did, we didn't have no internet media telling us about it. Well, that's why Trump should win, cause he wants to make us great agin. But that's also why he ain't gonna win, cuz all you young rips don't know what greatness looked like. Look, boy, you wouldn't know greatness if it hit you like a brick. You spend your days with your eyes glued to yer phones. If you'd look up for two seconds and read a book, you'd know that socialism ain't never gonna work. But no, you all gonna vote for Sleepy Joe. Well, when I was yer age...

HISTORY EXPLAINED
Episode 3, 10/18/2020: The First Crusade
A production of the DART Bard
Featuring ScumAnonymous
Well, pal, it all started in 1095 when the Byzantine emperor noticed the Seljuq Turks were steppin' on his turf. He knew that, if that kept up, he and his empire would be wearin' cement overshoes. So off he went to ask the big boss, Pope Urban II, for some help. Boss Urban was a real pal, so he went around his home turf in France to get people to help the emperor. Well, some hermit named Peter and a knight called Walter got all carried away and led a bunch of reckless fellers east. Before they got there, they fought battles in Hungary cause they were hungry. When they finally did get to the front, well, pal, that was a blood red August, and it wasn't Seljuq blood, let me tell you. But those fellers were just small fry. The real deal started when the French and Norman bosses got together with their boys. Thirty-five thousand knights joined up with the emperor and his boys and got ready to whoop some Turks. They took Nicaea first. Then the Normans ran into the Turks, who were led by Arslan - yes, pal, Arslan, not Aslan. Pay attention, there ain't no lions in this story. As I was saying, the Normans ran into the Turks, and they were in some trouble until the French got there. Back then, see, the French weren't no surrender monkeys. They whooped the Turks and marched on Antioch. It took them so long to take the city that hundreds of the crusaders starved, see. Well, that made them real mad, pal, real mad. They marched on Jerusalem, and when they took it, it was a bloody day. They meant business, and they didn't mess around. Even people who hid in mosques and synagogues were blown away. They even burned a synagogue full of people. It wasn't pretty, pal, but it kept the Seljuq Turks off their turf for years.

Chief Moderator Virtuoso Changes Name to David in Yet Another Illuminati Kidnapping.
By Conspi Theo.
DART's chief moderator Virtuoso has changed his username to David just weeks after debate moderator christopher_best changed his username to MisterChris. No official reasons have been provided, but, according to a source who chose not to be identified for fear of angering the Illuminati, this is evidence that they have been secretly kidnapped by the Illuminati and replaced by Illuminati agents David and MisterChris. The New World Order is slowly tightening its grip on DART. First, it locked former debate moderator Ramshutu out of his account. Next, bsh1 was banned after a corrupt gamble with blamonkey. Now, two of DART's four active moderators have been kidnapped by the New World Order. DART's membership needs to stand up to this tyranny and expose this conspiracy for what it truly is. "They" will never win!

New Challengers: Intelligence_06 and MisterChris Enter the Top 5
By Trum Porter
DART users Intelligence_06 and MisterChris have displaced Trent0405 and semperfortis in the Top 5, claiming the title of Challengers. While these two are out there WINNING, Sleepy Trent hasn't even taken on any debates to regain his position. Sad! Meanwhile, RationalMadman, who reached 3rd place before being banned and falling to 9th, has been accepting debates left and right like a logical lunatic in an effort to climb the ranks. According to the latest reports, former challenger Speedrace is returning to debating after participating in a tournament. That's right, folks. We have four contenders preparing to battle it out for the title of Challenger. What a great competition, the best, really. Not many people know this, but I've looked at the numbers, and there are only two available places for four debaters. However, that will only last until Ragnar - a great debater, really a great guy, the best - overtakes Ramshutu. The undefeated legend is only 9 points behind that quitter Ramshutu, and he's leading the voting in two debates, which should be enough to put him at number 2. So much winning! We're going to witness a great battle between DART's best for the Top 5, and it'll be tremendous, just tremendous, and you can read all about it here at the DART Bard!

--oromagi
A clear proletariat hero. With no formal debate experience and only a rhetoric course to aid him, this member of the common rabble has surpassed all expectations, including his own, to reach the top of the debate leaderboard. Take that, you bourgeoisie elitists!
--Ragnar
Yeah, the deputy mod gets in. That's totally not the bourgeoisie helping each other out, nope, definitely not. I'm definitely not disgusted by the capitalist corruption that let an aristocrat like him into the HoF, no, not at all.
--SupaDudz
What a great comrade! He's made more posts in the forums than any other user, he's an active debater, musical artist, poet, and rapper. Now if only he'd join the Communist Party, he'd be flawless.
Debates
By ScumAnonymous
--Resolved: The US should institute congressional term limits (blamonkey vs. bsh1)
In this epic blow, blamonkey lays out a stunning case against using term limits to remove mafia-friendly legislators while cooly gunning down the arguments of former site cop bsh1. Opening his violin case and blowing away bsh1's account while he was at it was a nice touch.
--Legalized Abortion (vector vs. MisterChris)
This debate was okay, but it was better back when Chris wore his stylish black hat from the 20s that made him look like a mafia hitman. Still worth reading, though.
--Is Jesus the Messiah? (Dustandashes vs. Virtuoso, a.k.a. David)
This was an awesome debate that helped me understand why people believe - wait, is that-a the sheriff? You-a, deal, with him, Tony.
Threads
By Trum Porter
--DART Bard, 1st Edition, 1/3/2020 (SirAnonymous)
Tremendous thread! Maybe even best ever! Not many people know this, but this thread was a defining moment in DART history. It was the start of something great! It was written by good people, trust me, they are great people, the best. I know some really smart people, but these guys are really, really smart people. Tremendously smart. And that editor, he's the best, maybe, I don't know, maybe ever. Some people say that. A lot of people say that. Some people don't say it, but I don't listen to those people. They don't win. They're losers, actually. Not good. Sad. Not like this thread. It won so much, and it keeps winning. In fact, we're tired of winning, but we can't stop. Believe me, this is the greatest thread, believe me. Just great.
--I will stereotype debaters properly. (RationalMadman)
RM stereotyped a lot of great people in this thread, and he was great. Fantastic. Winning. It was hilarious, really funny, not like the fake news media which has no sense of humor. They lie a lot, believe me. But RM was fantastic in this thread, amazing. He's a smart guy, really smart. We need more people who can write like this. You should read it.
--DEBATE ART TOURNAMENT ROUND ONE (Bearman)
This was great, believe me, I am really sick of doing my impression of Trump. He's the best president ever and tells it like it is, but I just can't do it like he does it. Any way, you should definitely check out this thread. Bearman set up a debate tournament with ten different debaters, which hasn't been done on DART in over a year. I can't imagine anything more true to the spirit of this site than this thread. Congratulations, and well done.

--Ragnar is the natural alpha male of this website. (RationalMadman)
I am so triggered right now. How can anyone think that promoting toxic masculinity at a time like this is at all acceptable? This is what's wrong with the world. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!! Stop being a misogynist who promotes alpha male trash, or I'll make sure you get canceled.
--BrotherDThomas’ performance art (BrotherDThomas)
BrotherDThomas, a longstanding advocate of common sense population control with his promotion of serial killer God, definitely earned this. Defending serial killing with an outraged tone and tacky style is exactly what we need right now. Just check out reddit or twitter if you don't believe me!

Mafia Concede Twice in a Row, Get Completely Left out of a Joke Game, and Win Twice in a Row.
By Trum Porter
ScumAnonymous had to be carried from the room on a stretcher after passing out when the Civil War Generals mafia ended, so I'm stuck being the sports writer this month. Blech. Anyway, the not-so-terrifying mafia conceded twice in a row, first in the Naruto Mafia and second in the Civil War Generals Mafia. The mafia just didn't stand a chance when Trump called the National Guard on 'em. Totally owned those libs and their mostly peaceful protests! In the Satire Mafia, they were too scared to even show up. Snowflakes. Then, somehow, probably due to Dimocrat mayors defunding the police, they won two games in a row with the BAMF and Arrowverse mafias. Funny, isn't it, how both of those games were modded by lefties? Yeah, just a coincidence that the mafia win when libs are in charge and concede or don't even show up when conservatives and libertarians are in charge - NOT. Take that, ya commies!

Debate Tournament Reaches the Third Round
By Grandpa Curmudgeon
DART's grand old debate tournament is in the third round. Only MisterChris, Supadudz, and Nikunj_Sanghai are left. Woooh. Yeah, tell me Bearman: did you hand out participation trophies to everyone who didn't make it? Bet you did, or those millennials and Gen Z'ers will cry. Back in my day, we never cried. Nope, men were real men then. Didn't need no safe-spaces. And when we had a beef, we duked it out like gentlemen without any of this online debate tomfoolery. Yessir, that's how it was. Never heard such nonsense like "Resolved: A public health emergency justifies limiting civil liberties." Take away my rights, will ya? No sirree, don't tread on me! Now get off my lawn, or I'll learn you a lesson you ain't gonna like!

HISTORY EXPLAINED
Episode 2, 9/13/2020: The Mongol Invasion
A production of the DART Bard
Featuring Carl Engels
The Mongol Empire began to take form when Temujin united the proletariat Mongol tribes. After gathering them around him under the flag of united labor, they invaded the part of China called Western Xia, and Temujin proclaimed himself to be Genghis Khan, the ruler of all Mongols. Faced with the united strength of Mongol workers before their capital, the fat and decadent Chinese bourgeoisie submitted. But when Genghis Khan began his liberation of workers in other parts of China, the capitalists of Western Xia betrayed him. Enraged, Genghis Khan began to destroy their cities. Some may complain that these tactics were needlessly ruthless, but Genghis Khan understood the dialectics of history and did his best to bring true communism. The resourceful Mongolian proletariat learned bit by bit how to defeat the fortifications of the capitalists, and the empires of China fell one by one. The dear leader Genghis Khan died in 1227, but his fellow workers carried on the liberation. China, Korea, India, Russia, Kazakhstan, and the Middle East saw the fall of the bourgeoisie and the rise of the proletariat. It seemed, for a moment, that capitalism would fall and communism would be ushered in. But corruption entered the heart of Mongolia. Genghis's grandson Kublai Khan fell in love with decadence. His grandfather's vision of a free world was dashed as Kublai fell to the siren song of capitalism. The Mongols ceased to be the proletariat and became the bourgeoisie they had sought to destroy. The dream of the end of capitalism was lost. When Kublai died, the Mongol Empire split into pieces. Thus did the bourgeoisie triumph, and the vicious dialectic continues to this day.

DART User BearMan Organizes Debate Tournament. Russian Influence Suspected.
By Carl Engels
A debate tournament was started recently to allow DART users to showcase their skills in a competitive way. Ten DART users entered the tournament as debaters and two entered as judges. According to tournament organizer BearMan,“Every single round, one person is eliminated and ties are not allowed.” However, suspicions have grown about the tournament, especially around its organizer. The bear is the symbol of Russia, which indicates that BearMan could be a Russian agent. This theory is strengthened by the very nature of the event. No sane, decent person would ever consent to civilly discussing a disagreement. Furthermore, debaters were randomly assigned a side on the issues, forcing some of them to argue against their beliefs. How can any properly adjusted person be expected to argue against the position that they unthinkingly believe because their favorite politician said so? This is clearly a Russian plot! Today, they’re trying to trick us into thinking that people who disagree with us aren’t literal fascists, which they obviously are. Tomorrow, they’ll have us thinking that people on the other side of the political spectrum might actually be right about something! Oh, the humanity!

Report: Oromagi Close to Reaching 88 MPH in his DeLorean
By Trum Porter
According to a recent report, DART’s King of the Hill oromagi is getting close to reaching 88 mph in his DeLorean. The number one debater, who will soon win his 87th debate, was able to complete his flux capacitor after his 86th win. Now that he has completed the last piece of his time machine, the only remaining problem is to find a source that can supply 1.21 gigawatts of power. If oromagi can get that much power, it will be an impressive achievement: that much power hasn’t been harnessed by any DART user since Bsh1 Franklin stood outside during Hurricane Utopia Crumbles while holding a kite with a wire running down the string. But for the DART King, this will doubtless be a minor obstacle. Oromagi has yet to announce what he will do when he gets his DeLorean to 88 mph with 1.21 gigawatts of power; however, many speculate that he will use it to go back to the future to read all of his opponent’s upcoming arguments and give a book full of future sports scores to his younger self.

DART Users Callously Celebrate Hall of Fame Elections as though the Environment Isn’t Being Destroyed all around Them.
By Environmental Wacko
Earlier this week, DART moderators kicked off the second annual Hall of Fame nomination and election process, which celebrates the best users, threads, and debates of the year. DART users are gladly participating in this event, despite the fact that the environment is being destroyed all around them. While species are going extinct and ocean levels are rising, DART users are handing out compliments to nominees like candy. They even have the audacity to nominate high-quality debates filled with rational and civil discussion. This is appalling. There can be no debate. There are only two types of people: those that advocate for the most expensive, farthest left environmental agenda possible, and those flat-earthers who stick their fingers in their ears and scream anti-science slogans while burning textbooks. Heedless of this, users on DART continue to have fun with their science-denying Hall of Fame. You are the Nero who fiddles while Rome burns. How dare you have fun and celebrate while the environment is being destroyed RIGHT NOW. I can’t even with you people. How DARE you.

Opinion: RationalMadman’s Ban is a Sign of the End Times
By Conspi Theo
RationalMadman, DART’s most active user, has been temporarily banned. This is a clear sign of the end times. Just look at his profile picture! Do you see what it is? A symbol! You know what another name for symbol is? A sign. WOW! Also, take a look at this: He was banned on 8/12/2020 until 9/23/2020. Both of those numbers have 3 2s. Three is the number of the Trinity, and 2 is the number of times Jesus will have come to earth at the end times. Amazing! But now look at the numbers that are left when you remove the 2s. In the first date, 8 and 1 are left, and 8-1=7, which is the Hebrew number of perfection! In the second date, 9 and 3 are left, and 9+3=12, which is the number of the tribes of Israel! Powerful stuff. And just look at the name RationalMadman. Paul said he was a fool for Christ. Sounds like a Rational Madman tome! It’s clear: the end times are coming. Can I get an amen or what?

Town Wins Two Games Straight

Well, town on DART has won the last two games of mafia, and I just can’t even. First town won in Stormlight Archives,and then in the States Mafia. I gotta say, my state is pretty stormy right now, and there ain’t a lot of light. Town MVP in the States Mafia was oromagi, and the scum least dreadful player was Discipulus_SpellingNamesIsHardus. It dragged on for 6 day phases, and finished in a long, lonely night. Mafia also lost in the Stormlight Archives, and there wasn’t even a town MVP because the mafia was so – sob – terrible. And now the most recent mafia game is called Naruto Mafia. That’s right, they compared to fearsome mafia to an anime show. An anime show.I just – I – I don’t think I can handle this.

Mod vs. Mod Debate. Apparent Loser Gets Banned. Foul Play Not Ruled Out.
By ScumAnonymous.
Former chief moderator bsh1 returned to have another debate. Voting moderator blamonkey and bsh1 had a debate titled “Resolved: The US should institute congressional term limits.” DART user Whiteflame placed a 7-4 vote favoring blamonkey, and bsh1 was banned. According to Whiteflame, the debate was a “[v]ery close one”. Most DART users seemed to be pleased with the return of the former mod, but it was not to be. After the debate had concluded, bsh1 was banned.
Analysis
By Conspi Theo
At face value, this seems perfectly normal – until you consider one thing: bsh1 didn’t commit any ban-able offenses after his return. What, then, are we to make of his ban? Given the outcome of the debate, the answer is clear: the debate was some kind of gamble between bsh1 and blamonkey in which the loser would be banned. The evidence is even more incriminating because the voting had not concluded when bsh1 was banned. Clearly, then, blamonkey is guilty of some kind of foul play, likely in conjunction with some of the other mods. These facts go hand-in-hand with the apparent disappearance of blamonkey’s fellow voting mod Ramshutu, who has not been online for a month. There is a dark conspiracy here, and we, the users of DART, must seek to unveil it and bring down these corrupt moderators.
Mafia Wins Two Games Straight
By ScumAnonymous
The feared mafia has won the last two games. In Virt’s Mafia Game, MVP Ragnar played a nearly perfect game and won with a brilliant final defense. In JARGOM, Virtuoso, mod of the previous game, won as scum after town failed to find out Greyparrot, his partner and the game MVP, even though he had lurked throughout the entire first day phase. Clearly, town on DART is utterly incompetent. The last time town won was in a quickfire when Ragnar played a not-so-perfect game and outed himself in the final DP. DART is totally incompetent at this game. Mafia rules, town drools. MUAHAHAHAHA-oh wait, was I supposed to be fair and unbiased in this report? Aw, man!
Op-Ed:IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD!!!!
By Environmental Wacko
It’s a sad day for the environment, folks. After a few weeks off to have a celebration focused around the mythical Santa in order to avoid focusing on the mythical Jesus, I have returned and discovered the most terrible fact ever: It’s the end of the world. I’m not joking. Take it slower this time. It’s. The. End. Of. The. World. Do you know why? Do you want to know how I know? My NFL predictions had yet another negative week and my record fell to 27-31, less than 0.500 (I’d calculate exact values, but calculators use electricity,and that’s bad for the environment). I know I’ve predicted environmental doom in previous negative weeks, but this time I really mean it, and this time I really do have a 97% consensus! Get ready, friends. We’re all gonna die! The end is nigh!

HISTORY EXPLAINED
Episode 1, 1/20/2020: The Fall of Rome
A production of the DART Bard
Featuring Trum Porter
Editor's Note: In our modern days, ignorance of basic history has become rampant. In this new project of the Bard, we are trying to educate the public about history in a fun but informative way. We are excited to announce the first episode in our series History Explained.
The Fall of Rome
In the early years of the fourth century, the great Roman Empire was secure under the reign of its Emperor, Constantine. His acceptance of Judeo-Christian values was a major reason he was able to reunite the Empire and protect it from invaders. After he died, however, the emperors after him relied on extortion and corruption. They paid for this deep state corruption with inflation. I probably don't have to tell you that they were Democrats. At the same time, the Roman leaders foolishly allowed illegal German immigrants to settle within their lands. This invasion of illegals was one of the major reasons the Empire collapsed. Beyond any doubt, they should have built a big, beautiful wall to keep Rome great; however, the liberals were in charge. Finally, Emperor Julian (R) began an anti-deep-state campaign in 360. He even fought a war against the Sassanids, knowing that wars are, of course, great and easy to win. Sure, he encouraged non-Christian religions, but hey, he was an emperor, not a pastor. King David wasn't perfect either. Most importantly, he sent the Roman army to deal with the illegal immigrants from Germany. Sadly, the deep state prevented him from making them pay for a wall. Less than two years later, the great Roman Empire split into two pieces once again. The official story was that it was split between the brothers Valens and Valentinian, but we know from Breitbart that the real reason was that a civil war started when the deep state tried to ban assault swords. After that, Rome began to fall harder and faster. German barbarians fleeing the Huns invaded Rome just like illegal immigrants invade America today. After that, the Huns themselves invaded. The only bright spot was when the leader of the Christian church in Rome, Leo I, was able to negotiate with one of the Vandal leaders to avoid any further death during one of the many sacks of Rome (remember when I said that Judeo-Christian values helped Constantine keep Rome together? Here they are, WINNING again). Finally, in 476, the Empire was unable to defend itself and fractured into multiple states.
The lesson to be learned here is obvious. The Romans continually failed to build a wall and allowed deep state libs to run the country into the ground. Had they chosen to Make Rome Great Again, they might have avoided their eventual collapse to the invading illegal immigrants. This is why it's so important to keep Dimocrats out of office and keep America great, so we avoid the fate of Rome.
