The premise of the convincing is loaded. No one deserves shit. Steven Crowder made the format famous and therefore he is attributed to it.
Whether or not the person is a piece of shit is irrelevant and ad hominem. If Hitler said 1 + 1 = 2, Hitler is right. You don’t get to deny that just because you hate the person. Shitty people can make correct statements and they can achieve things. Doesn’t matter which name we apply to it. We must be able to argue on the merits of the statement or format without sorting to personal feelings on the person, lest you become the one who is intolerant.
Main problem is: Steven Crowder did not make the meme. People made a meme out of him. There was no “format” - he wanted to be edgy and debate. Then, he became a meme. Nothing to take from, nor attribute to him.
However, I much prefer Calvin and never want to see anything related to Steven Crowder. And what was that about Hitler? …that…just…wow …
Sure, I’ll play this game.

What correct statement are you even talking about how is that hypothetical relevant at all? Is a format a fact now?
The correct statement is that he popularized this format of “change my mind.” Therefore, the attribution goes to him.
Thank fuck there’s someone on this website that still has brains.
The way most people around here operate Good = smart and bad = dumb.
I think that’s the way most people operate anywhere, not just this website.
I feel like it’s the chronically online who have it worse.
