Actually, the primary concern is not so much that the post will be brigaded (which it would be if we actually started debating before it gained traction); their M.O. is to insert derailing comments everywhere and upvote-brigade those to hide the actual debate. To that end, we plan to keep this thread as the commentary on the debate, and Amalek will post in a sub he mods for the actual debate thread (link to come), so he can prune derailing comments from the actual debate thread.

wut? that is not sounding good to me at all - allowing one of the debaters to delete comments in a debate that he's participating in?
if you want to circumvent up/dn vote problems, then conduct it in a sub that's set to 'Anonymized mode', or set to 'Only allow submissions from authorized submitters'
if it's going to moderated by the same guy who's part of the debate, what's the point?
I'm giving him the privilege to moderate so nobody will cry foul against the Jews. If he replies and then deletes it I'll still have the record of it and can post it in this thread. Introducing a third person just invites questions about whether they're just one of our alts, whether they're powermod cabal, etc.

thanks for the corrected time
notice people aren't DV'ing the post : )
it's not so much what he says - there's many here who agree - it's how he says it
i think he has the knowledge to dominate the debate if he can keep a cool head
for clarification, what is the 'Jewish question', because that could be a broad topic ???
