Anything said, or even a facial expression, can be taken out of context and go viral. It's a pity that social media's echo chamber just appeals to knee-jerk reactions being amplified a million times with very little room for context. Even mainstream media is becoming more clickbaity just to get pageviews and ad revenue. In that context, the whole purpose of a debate can be subverted, twisted, manipulated, and any effort to provide clear thoughts and ideas are wasted, as only mindless provocative one-line zingers gain traction - the sound bite.
in a live debate, you can be held accountable to what you say. in a written debate, you can just deny or twist what you've said as it takes no effort to duck accountability during a written debate. that's why keyboard warrior faggots always duck and run from a live debate but love fapping to written debates.
