I was an extra in a fifth grade production of a Gilgamesh stage play if you want any extra insight (I don’t remember anything about it).

One problem is that we use the word “debate” to refer to both any sort of reasoned argument between opposed viewpoints and a very specific kind of stylized verbal performance art that is somewhere between useless for & actively hostile to truth or persuasion.

The key empty-headed fatuity to the Ezra Klein approach is that if you engage in a pantomime of "debate" by going places and taking questions, you're still "doing politics right" even if you are calling for people to be deported for speech or stoned for being gay. It's civic society cosplay.

Welcome to America where burning your own flag is now more illegal than smearing actual human shit on the walls of our capitol building.

I have never had the urge to burn the American flag, but better to burn the flag than to wipe your ass with the constitution.
