    I did debate club in highschool and early college, but it was parliamentary style debate. I didn’t observe that much bullshit, so I’m guessing the US competitive debate style is different

      Nah that’s how debate club is everywhere. Middle, high school, and college.

      The debates you see on TV are designed for whatever channel it’s on though.

      Local councils are basically what you see on Parks and Rec. It’s where the OG crazies shine since they’ve mostly been banned from the internet lol.
