It's not the same level of resistance to your actual insides being frozen, but regardless, sure. I'm fine with Haribel having resistance to low temperatures, as she doesn't seem to have any freeze burns on her

You'll likely need to explain what the big word "equivocation" means to Raven.

Unlike Arc and Arcker, I don't have the patience to deal with you. If you believe that's an L for me, I don't care.

@Twisted_Little_Raven use Equivocation in a sentence

He doesn't need to refute a non sequitur. Since they don't logically follow the argument preceding them.
How do people resisting Toshiro's ice, which would grant them resistances to low temperatures, refute Deceived's claim?

You gotta stop this nerdy ass verbiage

Idc, I gave her links to the big scary words and what they mean, she's got access to the internet. At this point any ignorance is just on her. I'm not losing any sleep if she can't comprehend what a non sequitur is, hell I explain what it is in the sentence following my usage of the word in the post you quoted.

Or you can be a normal person and use normal words instead of trying to sound smart in a debate.
If you think equivocation is a word people actually use regularly then you're delusional. Yall quite simply have terrible debate tactics. You put yourselves in situations where the opponent has to prove something that can't actually be proven and take that as evidence. Or get them to prove something that doesn't need to be proven.
The whole Ichibei not being sensed thing told me all I need to know. Then I say Bazz b didn't use blut but automatically assume so now i have to prove people use blut when we assume characters already did in majority of situations where we shouldn't. Y'all are impossible to deal with because of your debate tactic.
Nobody cares about your nerdy words u use to save yourself in a debate to prove you're always right. Has Arc ever lost one? No because his debate tactics ensure he cant. So either make an argument or stop talking. Ad hominem, Non sequitur, equivocation, Hatchet's razor?? WTF is even that.
Basically this boils down to, the people I'm debating with can't actually lose a debate because they use scummy tactics to ensure nothing they are saying on a technical standpoint is wrong.
Utterly ridiculous

I mean why engage with her at all if you don't at least want to change her views.
Nobody else agrees with her, or needs to be convinced why.

I find it entertaining

I understand that. I just think you shouldn't complain when your conversations with her devolve into shit when that's the entire goal of conversating with her.

Am I complaining rn? I don't think I am. I am engaging in Raven fully understanding that she is going to go on some tirade about "Arc's debate tactics" and "y'all are just meatriding Arc".

Im not advocating for it but on the Bazz-B and Shikai Yama stuff,at best you could "maybe" downscale him to baseline 5-C.
I don't agree on it tho,just throwing the option out there.

I'm using normal debate lingo, because we are having a debate. You've got the internet, google the big words you didn't learn.
Me personally, when I come across a phrase or word I don't know, I google the definition. Also, your inability to prove your own claims isn't my issue.
I haven't quite stated my thoughts on Bazz and whether or not he used Blut and the temperature resistance enhancements Blut grants in the instance of mitigating Yama's Shikai flame aura. I just said that resisting the heat of Yama's flames isn't inherent grounds to scale given heat hax resistance is a thing. Whether or not he used Blut or not isn't really important here, since it could just be that Bazz has innate heat resistance without Blut if you wanna go down that road.
Yeah I've lost debates to intelligent people. But it's sweet of you to think I've never lost. I provided you with links to what a lot of those words mean, your refusal to click those links is a fault of your own ignorance.
Playing by the rules sure is scummy. What a ludicrous thing to say, imagine you're losing a game of pick up basketball to someone, and your cope is "they played by the rules".
Yup.
If you want to debate against me or discuss something where they cannot intervene than use DMs. This is a public forum, anyone can respond to any message in the general thread, and anyone can not respond to any of those messages.

Not normal debate lingo at all. Been doing it longer than you
Yea but there are people who simply use normal words so they are better understood
Me personally I'm not reading all that since the topic isn't about that. I brought him up to make up a point not here to debate Bazz b equals shikai yama
To me too and I'm smarter than you
You aren't playing basketball you're playing tennis
See this wasn't why I said this. I said this because I know what I'm getting into by debating you since you have your own expectations when you argue me

"Strawman" is a common debate term. The fact you don't know that speaks towards your lack of knowledge, not my surplus.
The only one struggling to understand me is you.
Aight
I've never lost a debate to you
Uh aight
Do you get fulfillment out of losing these debates?
