CX Debate Summary

In my argumentation class, we were assigned to participate in a CX debate. This debate was quite the undertaking, as this was a longer-form debate that must of us in the class had never participated in before. The topic of the debate that my group was in was about cancel culture, and my group had to argue the affirmative, that cancel culture was a good thing to have on social media platforms. This was an interesting challenge as all I had ever heard about cancel culture previously was very negative things. Overall, the debate went very well for my team. I believe we came in with great arguments and were prepared for whatever the other team had to say to counter us. I found the experience fun because it was a good challenge coming up with counter arguments on the fly and treating the whole thing like a competition.
