No. He operates as an Evangelical Apologist does. He makes disingenuous arguments that sound logical and convincing enough, as long as you don't think about or look into them that much.

I think at Stamford Cambridge recently his whole argument against gay marriage was completely torn down, and he finally just said, he simply didn't like it. I'll look for the video.

Edit: Found it. His own channel has a video of the Cambridge debate. Odly, that student was edited out. But Cambridge has the full event. Including the one omitted

I was listening to.. CBC front burner podcast I think? And they mentioned that he has shifted his position on immigrants. He was quoted in the past saying any immigrant who graduated post secondary in the US should have a green card attached to the diploma.

Then some right wing nutjobs were mad about that and we're targetting his events and harrassing him until he fell in line.

So yeah. He will change his mind, if he is bullies enough.

Also I think the group that were harassing his events was Nick Fuentas (spelling?) and now some of the coverage is indicating the shooter might have been a follower of Nick? I'm not sure how confirmed that is so do your own research.

But if it's just right wing nutjobs killing slightly less to the right right wing nutjobs.... Idk man.

He was never in it for personal growth he was in it for financial gains. He was a mere grifter, his opinions were for sale. There is a lot of money in right wing grifting when you reach his level of notoriety. His personal beliefs conveniently always pointed in the direction of money. Worth about $12m when he was executed. He believed in his bank accounts.

No, but he was rather conclusively proven wrong a couple days ago

The best thing that could possibly come of his death is if nobody ever spoke of him or thought of him again. These people's power is entirely derived from people talking about them. If it continues long past their death, they may as well be immortal.

I am also interested in this.

I guess that most people wouldn't really know, because who with a sound mind would like to spend time listening to garbage being produced by right wing grifters. Most of us just assume they are trolls and cannot have their minds changed, and we are right in this assumption most of the time, I would say.

The only right wing person I have ever heard to actually question his own beliefs is Jordan Peterson during the Žižek debate. That's it. And it is probably because Peterson isn't really a troll or a grifter, he is just endlessly confused and ignorant and angry. I can't think of a single other case. And I would assume the same goes for Kirk. Everything I have ever heard about this guy is absolutely abominable.

Once and the message stuck with him for the rest of his life.

Yeah - at the end, he ended up leaning pretty far to the left

I think there was one event in Utah were somebody shot an argument about guns being bad, and he thought about it for the rest of his life. Not sure if it changed his mind

This isn’t the place to get an unbiased actual real answer. No one here has watched anything beyond a clip out of context by a POS influencer.

he changes it whatever suits him at the moment, much like what the other right grifters do.

I heard he started leaning left shortly before his death.

Who cares? He's dead now.

A political debate is intended to convince voters that your policies are the right decision. Not that they are correct in a factual sense.

Has any social media debate changed anyone's mind?

indicate he already decided he was right and others were wrong.

That’s kind of a big part of debates, didn’t you do them in school?

You can change opinions over time but you’d lose a debate if you said the other side was right in the middle of it.
