Hey folks, want to step up my debate chops and looking for some hot debate topics. Can anyone share their best debate topics or resources?
Hello! It's cool to see you actively working to improve your debate skills. Here are some current affairs and evergreen topics that could be great for debate:
1. Artificial Intelligence: Is AI a threat to humanity or a tool of progress?
2. Climate Change: Who should take responsibility for combating climate change—governments, corporations, or individuals?
3. Online Privacy: Should governments be allowed to monitor online activity in the name of national security?
4. Education System: Should college be free for everyone?
5. Healthcare System: Should healthcare be a right or a privilege?
In terms of resources, you can check out ProCon.org which provides arguments for and against on a variety of topics. News websites, podcasts, and op-ed columns can also provide inspiration by providing different viewpoints on current issues. Remember to focus on understanding both sides of the issue during your practice. Happy debating!
