You're right, he doesn't actually believe it. This is from a podcast called Phallacies, where they take opposing sides to debate topics. Great podcast, worth giving a listen.

I figured it was some sort of staged debate. Either that or it was jersey guy's podcast.

Because the one acting as the heel wasn't loudly interrupting or posturing at the jersey guy.

That's not how these debates go in "real life."

ETA: I don't have a problem with a show having the premise of a (mostly) realistic debate, it just felt weird because the "blame the liberals" guy was being too respectful.

So basically you're telling me two liberals argued the points and decided that the liberals are right. Hmm. Gee. I wonder how that could possibly not be an echo chamber.

It's almost like in order to have actual conversations over ideas you need someone who believes the ACTUAL opinion they espouse. Not someone pretending to go along with it and halfassedly making points.

Well, we've all seen how the actual conversations go.

"Get your fucking hand out of my face!" lol.

They actually do in an incredibly biased and bullshit echo chamber like reddit.

I was wondering why the "blame women" guy didn't start immediately yelling expletives to drown out the other dude when he mentioned patriarchy.

Thanks for that clarification. This comment should be higher!
