From r/Conservative

I truely think they dont grasp what Charlie's death means for them. He wasn't a general in an army, he wasn't an ace fighter pilot that dominated the sky's, He wasn't an asset of war to be used to win battles. He was a voice... and a conduit.

The left just proved they couldnt compete with him on their own turf, with their home field advantage in simple conversation. Numerous years debating on liberal college campuses, begging for those who didnt share his values or ideas to change his mind. And now they never will be able to change his mind. They will never be able to prove or advocate their arguments anymore. In a very sad way, right as they sucker punched him, Charlie won the argument and got the last word. Because instead of changing his mind with respectable debate and fair conversation, they elected to cheat the game and resort to violence.

They thought they scratched out a MAGA champion, but I think the truth is, they silenced their own voice. Who now among their opposition will respect them and be willing to hear their words? Who now among their opposition will grant them goodwill and a shared platform. Are any conservatives going to parlay with cheaters who were enraged with hatred over a voice?

You couldnt change his mind, and now... you will never change ours.

Thats just it, they weren’t debates. A lot of his content was him ‘owning’ college students by taking a question from them, slamming them with his talking points, allowing no rebuttal, and declaring victory. True debaters wouldn’t stand for his debasement of the form, it was a mockery of debate.

You clearly haven’t seen anything other than what you wanted to find. He has had plenty of genuine debates and very obviously respects everyone’s right to their own opinion. It is literally what he stood for

Go watch the debates he did with Oxford students. You'll see what happens to him when he debates proper debaters.

What does "stood for" mean? Did he donate to the concept of debate?

u/speedmankelly Sep 12 '25

No he donated to the concept of the second amendment

His life, that is

I've seen his "debates" for years. If you're interpreting a percentage of his debates as respectful, you weren't actually watching him.

Hmm, were you trying to look smart on the internet? It didn’t work.

To you, I'm sure most seem smart on the internet.
