They never debate. This is somebody who is so used to only strawmanning the other side that he forgot that they can ever be right. And what you've done is steelman his other side, which shows immediately how dumb his take is.

As I said to another response, I think even the people calling him retarded are giving him too much credit. He's not having a debate, even a one-sided one. He's just being edgy and Subversive. "People like super powers, so I'll say they're dumb." Really not sure it goes too much beyond that. He's just Deconstructing things.

If he thought his dumbass view would be questioned he'd put a little more thought into it.

I don't think he's even thought some of this through enough to think about whether he's being questioned or not. And if he did think about being questioned...well, all those people are just Chuds, right?!

Now, admittedly, I myself might be a tad uncharitable here, but I do think he's just doing surface level, 'does it sound vaguely cool and edgy?' stuff. He's not making an argument at all, even a bad one. He's just saying super powers suck.
