Lovely article, Annushka! This brought me back to memories of us debating in high school... I feel like a dinosaur writing that previous sentence. Thank you for reminding me of those times and how debate has improved (and to a certain extent, rotted, but not in a life-changing terrible way) my brain and life.

Incredible writing! You very eloquently express both the beauties and qualms that I and many others share about debating- can't wait to read more of your writings!
