Top 10 Most Absurd and Messed Up Debates on Debate.org

So, I was navigating my way around Debate.org and found some debates on that site that were absurd, messed up, laughable, or just plain disgusting. They were enough to be eligible for an entry on this list. And no, I'm not making this up.

I have a feeling that many of these were made by trolls or something similar. Feel free to go on that site, find some debates you think are absurd or messed up, and add them to this list.
The Top Ten
Should pedophilia be legal?

It should not. It is disgusting. There is a lot of it on apps like TikTok, and it is stupid. It even happens on Roblox, a children's game.

People really debated on this? Wow, what a world we live in.

No. Truthfully, I used to not know what pedophilia is, but once I found out... No. That is child abuse. Most of these debates make me ashamed of being a human, especially this one.

This is disgusting. Pedophilia shouldn't, under any circumstances, be legalized. Whoever made this debate really needs help because this is disgusting.

Does bullying justify school shootings?

No, it doesn't. That's like asking if temper tantrums justify slowly killing someone, MS-13 style. I've been both a bully and was bullied. Neither is fun.

As horrible as both of them are, I think this is maybe even worse than the one about pedophilia.

No, it is messed up to think someone even brought this up.

Do vaccines cause autism and homosexuality?

That is stupid. What makes you think vaccines cause someone to like the same gender?

That's really stupid, especially the part about vaccines causing autism.

Does Canada exist?

I've never seen Canada in person, so I guess not. Also, I never said this comment is a joke, so I guess it's not one.

Yes. My uncle lives there. Ask him. Even if it was just a landmass with no nation for quite a while, it is now a nation.

And I doubt Canadians are debating whether the USA exists.

This is stupid. Of course, Canada exists. Why would you even say that?

Should China be nuked?

Well, that would take down the largest military on the planet, but it would also be the demise of a good chunk of the human race. More likely than not, President Xi would call Putin and ask him to nuke the U.S., being the only nation with more nukes than the States.

No, that is racist. There are so many things in America that were made in China. Ever since COVID-19, racism has become a bigger thing. People are starting to hate the Chinese because of COVID-19.

If T-Series beats PewDiePie, should we nuke India?

No. This is just stupid. Y'all are really debating on nuking India because of two YouTube channels. That is childish.

Should America nuke the Middle East?

No, that would wipe out a lot of the population and would just make it worse for everyone else still living. People would probably die of radiation as well.

Not only would we annihilate our enemies, but we'd probably wipe Israel off the map. (Assuming "we" means the USA.)

What's with Debate.org and nuking places?

Are humans a disease to Earth?

Kind of. I mean, we're all pretty stupid, all things considered. We're the only species on earth that destroys its environment.

We could do so much to prevent pollution, but all our leaders and rich fools think about is getting more and more money that they don't even need.

In a way, yes. But more humans are good than bad.

Should we all be vegetarians?

No. I keep telling my parents I'm an "inverse vegetarian." They won't listen.

No. Humans need meat to stay healthy and strong.

Do we need men anymore?

Yes, you do. 1. There's nothing that can actually cause reproduction without men. And B. Whether you can swallow your pride or not, we men are pretty awesome.

Yes. Just because females go through periods and birth doesn't mean they are superior. And without men, there can't be any more women.

The Newcomers

? Do opinions justify discrimination and prejudice?
? Does bullying justify revenge?
The Contenders
Should social media be banned for all people?

Not for everyone, but social media causes a lot of bad things like kidnappings.

Is mayonnaise an instrument?

I actually debated this on DDO just to get my feet wet, so to speak. It was hilarious how seriously the opposing side was. I didn't want to start my account doing some bigwig philosophical mystery, although after this debate, that's exactly what I did.

This is more silly than messed up, but yes, this is completely absurd.

Anything can be an instrument.

Should disabled people be annihilated?
Are non-Christians the Devil's spawn?

This is just pathetic. No, non-Christians are not demon spawn. I think atheists, Muslims, Jews, and so on are misled, but some of my best friends in grade school were Hindus.

Should school be illegal?
Is space flat?
Should we actually have a Purge?
Should we protect endangered species?
Should incest be legal?
Should zoophilia/bestiality be legal?
Does discipline justify child abuse?
Does discipline justify animal cruelty?
Does justice justify revenge?
Does justice justify murder?
