[DEBATE] Debate.org - The Great Moon Debate!

DEBATE

I've decided to create an open 1v1 debate on debate.org, the topic of which is NASA verifiably landed astronauts on the moon in Apollo missions between 1969 and 1972

Debate Link

I sit as pro and I have have posted on r/conspiracy and here to invite any hoax advocates to take up the challange. I've tried to work the rules to get around the any tactics of posting a 2 hour video and expecting me to spend 10 hours refuting every point while they put in zero effort (bear in mind that each round is character limited)

So far the thread on r/conspiracy isn't gaining much attention but I'm hoping it gets noticed, I also plan on sending a few invites to the usual hoax proponents. I have also asked a mod about the possibly of stickying it for a short time to find an opponent but I'm not sure how likely that is

I hope someone takes up the mantle!

Well, that pretty much went exactly as expected.

As expected, he gave up instantly.

Fucking timewasters

I'm very familiar with the materials used in this debate. If any 2 hour video requests come up, tap me on the shoulder. I can serve as a reference.

The subreddit seems fairly dead atm, but r/spacefraud used to have some moonhoaxers around.

well , we do need better advertisement. Plus the whole idea is alien to many and people are having a hard time accepting it. So they start thinking it's a zoo or a dump pool.

I have had someone accept and I have posted my opening arguments. Feel free to take a read and comment. (on here)

The first response fills me with little hope of a worthwhile response on the CON side of this debate. Is it possible to contact relevant subreddits which are invested in the CON position to help him out?

I feel the same way. Wouldn't be suprised if I get forfeits from this point on

Well, that went pretty much as expected.

I think the biggest struggle is that you have the burden of proof, and that the idea of a government coverup may be used to discredit your government sources. If you can, try to make use of a variety of independent sources to counter that

I've stuck to independantly examined and physical evidence. The physical evidence along should be enough, unless he can come up with a credible place where half a ton of moon rock came from. He can't.

It just goes to show you how little those kind of people care about fair and open debate.
