I'll be meeting lots of conservative family members and some of them love to get into debates. What I usually did in the past was just stay away from them as my ideas weren't fully formed yet and I didn't want to make my points look weak.

So is there like some guide on how to debate or a list of some of the most effective talking points that I should use ?

engaging the debate me bro crowd is a complete waste of time for numerous reasons, life isn't a greek agora where the best argument wins the hearts and minds.

but to not leave you empty handed, these sorts of debates are won by who talk loudest, doesn't matter if the argument is solid or not. if you are already openly communist, just know they will strike at strawmens 100 million dead, stalinism, hunger snd etc

Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.
