I keep getting PM's, IRC inquiries, and comment replies asking how my debate with Manhood Academy went so here it is for you to see with your own ears:

The first Voat debater is another guy who joined us to talk about safe spaces.
It started out rough and there was a good deal of emotionally charged exchange between a couple of Voat participants and "Professor" but in the end we actually reach substance and held a real discussion about spam, censorship, and ways to deal with both.
Skip ahead you around the 1:25:00 mark for the good parts
I expected this to be nothing more than an idiot raging to make people feel small and stupid, it surprisingly turned into a real discussion.
There was even a guest appearance by that asshole ElectroLumus that trolled us all into rebellion a couple months back.
I think the live debate platform has some real merit and after this debate I think we should hold a second one for all of the users that stated today that they want their chance to call out the MH'ers. Get your questions ready so we can make these guys answer.
Manhood Academy I challenge you to a second debate a week from now. We will get a better cross section of Voat users to come and make you answer the hard question. Think you can handle it?
TL;DR;
This is what we came out of the debate with:
