The main issue I have is that it frames a debate as a metaphorical battle that has a winner and loser. There is no compromise and the winner takes all. It shows a severe lack of maturity to approach a discussion as a fight, further, a fight you have to win. I suppose my question is what do you get for 'winning'? What do you prove? Is the potential resentment worth it? I don't think it is, maybe Ben Shapiro thinks differently. After all, he has made a career out of it.

I thought #10 made sense, although I'd frame it differently.
And, of course, framing itself contributes a couple of points on his list!

He's an amateur.

So now you're a liberal since this is "liberal only" space. Surprise, surprise.
