I’ve been quite torn on this because that was what Dawkins did on the creationism vs evolution debate due to what others have told him. Like platforming these weirdoes exposes them to others and then their clips can get chopped up to sound like they’re smart if they get a good “gotcha”.
However, then they go on JRE or some other shit anyways and go into the ecosystem another way and it seems they’re seemingly unchallenged and they get to push the ridiculous narrative that “our ideas are so good that they won’t even face us”. It’s complete rubbish … but I just don’t know anymore.
