No, debate involves the application of logical reasoning to known facts. If you cannot grasp that a change in circumstance will also change the particulars, then you have failed at the application of logic. Basically, if you use "evidence" from OTL, inevitably produced by the circumstances of OTL, you can only use that as an argument pertaining to the ATL situation if you also demonstrate that (and why) the facts you are citing would still hold up in the different situation. You have not done so. You have just blindly assumed that the particulars will be unchanging. That is the problem. And now we are really done, unless you should be ready to apologise for your misplaced arrogance.

Lighten up, friend.
