Dave Farina vs. James Tour Debate (Are We Clueless About the Origin of Life

After two years of thoroughly exposing James on his lies regarding origin of life research, I finally got the chance to confront him live about the subject. As everyone could have predicted, James had no interest in a good faith discussion about this topic, opting instead for shouting maniacally for the entire exchange, with some intermittent pageantry on the chalkboard. Apart from all of his past lies that I confronted him on, triggering a gold-medal winning gish gallop that did not relent until the final Q&A, below are linked some papers that prove he was lying during the debate when denying aspects of the research I was presenting. All in all it was an utterly embarrassing debacle that to James would serve only one purpose, to perpetuate the illusion that he has any clue what he's talking about and keep his science illiterate brainwashed flock on his side.

El-Sayed and Stevens debate aid to Israel, campaign donations in final debate

“I want your tax dollars spent in Michigan to provide schools in Michigan, to build healthcare in Michigan, to build roads in Michigan, and I think that money sent over there to kill kids and women is the worst use of our tax dollars,” he said. 

Stevens called El-Sayed “a celebrity candidate” looking to build a podcast audience with no practical experience in governing. Stevens also said she has a track record as a policymaker familiar with manufacturing issues and winning tough races in a swing congressional district...

"Slap in the face": Republican gubernatorial frontrunner John James not committing to debate

Brian Szmytke is a senior advisor with the Oakland County Republican Party. He said James should show up to talk to party faithful, especially since part of his congressional district includes part of Oakland County. 

 “It's honestly a slap in the face to the volunteers that got him elected, because our people put in a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and their money to get him elected. Now he's abandoning that seat, and he's not even showing up to a debate to explain why,” Szmytke said in an interview Thursday...

The students who debated with Charlie Kirk: ‘His goal was to verbally defeat us’

"Charlie turned myriad opportunities for meaningful dialogic transactions rooted in civility and turned them into confrontational interactions by amplifying binaries in his argumentative structure," Woods wrote in an email. "What we know is that there is a spectrum of ideologies and worldviews, not just two: Charlie's and whoever is on the other side of the microphone." 

 Hasan Piker, the popular leftist Twitch streamer who was scheduled to debate with Charlie Kirk later this month, wrote in a guest essay published in the New York Times that his would-be opponent was an "expert" at "[taking] advantage of people's resentments and [redirecting] them toward vulnerable communities".
