'The Hottest Circle of Hell Is for Those Who Stay Neutral'

The debate between Reason and The Bulwark revolved around the statement, "You don't have to pick a side in politics." It featured opening remarks, cross-examinations, presentations—complete with a South Park clip, pocket Constitutions, and expired food items—and a Q&A session with the audience. Reason's main argument highlighted the shortcomings of both major political parties, advocating for a focus on specific issues instead of strict partisan loyalty, referencing figures like Martin Luther King Jr. as examples of nonpartisanship. On the other hand, The Bulwark argued that taking a stand, especially against significant threats like Donald Trump, is a crucial duty of informed citizens. After two rounds of audience voting, The Bulwark emerged victorious by attracting more supporters to their side.
