I'll explain why this conclusion isn't necessarily correct. -Remember the "Change My Mind" guy, [Steven Crowder](https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Crowder)? If you're not familiar with him, he's an American-Canadian conservative political commentator and the subject of a popular meme format. He used to set up a table on college campuses to debate college students. I don't know if he still does it. I don't follow him. Anyways he goes into these debates where he picks the topic, one which he's knowledgeable about and has lots of points in his favor already in working memory, and he goes up against unprepared college students. +Remember the "Change My Mind" guy, [Steven Crowder](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Crowder)?

I don't consider what Steven does unfair in the slightest, because the college students voluntarily go and debate him, so it's up to them to be ready for the heat. It's not like he screens students before he debates them to make himself look good. But I fear that some people may get the impression that he's correct just because he can look smart in front of unprepared college students. -- cgit v1.2.3
