Arguments are only relevant to debate among a people with a shared cultural framework, and culture is downstream from law. Progressives have been winning for many decades now by simply imposing their will and the populace accepts it later. This is a war.
The only debate the average normie should see is between ourguy and a carefully selected crazy progressive shouting about how much fun it is to murder babies. It's cruel that the average person is currently burdened with constant anxiety over complex geopolitical events and philosophical questions far beyond them, when they should be almost entirely focused on the concerns of their daily lives and families.
I think it makes more sense to say culture is downstream from power. Culture includes the application of and (non-)acquiescence to law. Enshrining laws is important but only temporary if you don't seize and hold power. For the forces in power, the law is what they say it is. (hmm, I suppose if that means law=power then never mind)
This has nothing to do with what you said, just something I thought about the other day.

Power is more appropriate.
Law is the codification of formal power. Or something similar, there is probably a better formulation.
