To be honest, I was a bit skeptical, because people normally claim that whoever agrees with them won the debate. When I saw this video recommended, I thought Seder owned the conservatives, because politics is his day job.
But he did seem exceptionally weak here. He also contradicted himself by saying that incest is bad because "we decided as a society" while refusing to affirm it for anti-transgenderism. Credit to him for actually answering instead of stonewalling and filibustering though.
Whoever that guy was, he brought a nuclear weapon to a knifefight.
I didn't think the other guy did very good either, since he just used a lot of gotchas. Though that was in part because Seder has an obnoxious approach that many leftists have.
They can't just say,
"I'm okay with trans people but I'm not okay with incest, simple as."
Leftists have to pretend there is some evidence behind their values to lend them credibility. They can't come to terms with the idea that their opinions and preferences are just a fart in the wind. They want to put authority behind their value statements, so they can bludgeon the rest of us with them.
I mean it's Jubilee video where you are only given 3 minutes to make your case. Surely he could have completely obliterated seder like Mr Metokur did to destiny.

Extremes are useful to highlight philosophical disagreements. I don't think he was unfair.
