kazu .o first, what does God have to do with right or wrong? That’s two different topics. There IS always a right or wrong. Slavery was wrong, and whatever you think America did right you can say it was right.
@@jaleyj there isnt. every one interprets it different. there is never such thing as something objectively wrong or right since wrong or right arnt objective things. we came up with concept through philosophy. slavery isnt objectively wrong. if u look through the eyes of someone with no morals. you realize slavery is a highly efficient way of creating a large free labor force that will become more and more efficient every generation.
I noticed that every time Christopher backed up his claim with FACTS (not on emotions or feelings) the class laughed. Why? Because they knew deep down that he was correct.
kskskskksks mammsmsk No I think the class laughed because of the way he showed emotion in his argument. I laughed when he talked not because he was right but because he was honestly dramatic in a sense.
lots of comments talking about how Chris brought the facts (and yes he did), but I would like to point out how, technically, HE directed the debate to the crucial point, the teacher started with an "lukewarm" question of "should people be allowed to wear or display the confederate flag?" and Chris took that question and directed it to a more pressing one: "if the confederates were not fighting to keep their slaves, why were they fighting then?". that's very impressive
@@gavinrolls1054No, because to answer the question of whether or not the Confederate flag be flown, you first have to answer the question of what the flag represented - and to answer that question, you have to understand the motivations and ideology of the Confederate States - which ultimately came down to the right to continue the expansion of slavery
@@winnerwinnerporkbellydinner you don't really need to answer that though to answer whether it should be allowed to be flown since the 1st amendment already answers it
@Sean Alexander Except if you take 2 seconds to google that quote you'll see that historians have discredited, and there's not really a basis to attribute that speech to lincoln.
Sean Alexander oops! you made a biased claim that has no factual footholds! you want me to use one of your sources? I’ll talk Snopes. Not only do you not understand how to read or find reputable sources except when it benefits you, but the ONLY place that has 3% of families owning slaves was Delaware. The rest was 12-49% depending on the state. You can verify that on a site you used in your attempt at arguing, on: www.snopes.com/news/2019/08/07/percent-of-whites-owned-slaves/
This young man, Mr. Christopher Justice, is articulate and intellectual. He ran circles around this room. They weren't ready for him. But this nation will be better because of him and kids like him... who study, think critically, and have the confidence to speak their minds.
Kill a Commie For Mommy Barely. Drake is the one that was able to state his "opinion", while Chris only had a couple minutes to spew facts. Chris and the kid with the glasses were the only two people in that room who had facts to back up their arguments.
@@chelseacousin2063 Drake explained how the North put unfair tariffs on the South. The percentage of men that owned slaves in the south working for the economy was 5% and how the Confederate flag has been molded by our society to be seen as racist. Christophers facts were irrelevant and he sometimes contradicted himself. He used extreme words against the south calling them terrorists and traitors. The girl in the glasses literally only used her emotions and everyone elses for her argument. You have nothing good on the anti confederate flag side.
It's a bit concerning noone brought up the letters of secession. It is litterally stated in almost every letter that the ENTIRE reason for the war was about slavery.
@@darayda5476legend has it he is still holding his hand up waiting for his turn to speak, but kids like Drake don’t follow those rules of curtesy and gets away with talking out of turn/over people.
Slavery was their livelihood (elites income). Hindsight is always 20/20. Cigarettes and alcohol are bad but take grandpa’s smoke’s away and see what happens!?
you can tell the whole room just does not f w him.... even the teacher calling him the name "professor" like that isn't condescending and clearly a nick name that kids probably use to make fun of him.
@@scenicnick the majority of the room was actually on drake's side, because every time drake made a point the guys would always clap and the amount of white guys in the room was insane, so i'm pretty sure most of the people sided with Drake rather than Chris.
"fact" Yes yes, everyone who agrees with you is factual and everyone who disagrees isn't. Banning a flag is unconstitutional. Its an expression of speech. People are free to wave the ISIS flag if they so choose.
@@jasonhymes3382 free speech doesn't cover hate speech and terroristic threats, if you flew the ISIS flag like the way people have flown it in America you could face jail time or be put on a watch list. Freedom of speech only supports freedom of press and the fact the goverment can't discriminate against you for voicing an opinion, if that opinion becomes a threat, hate speech & etc then it isn't protected.
chris absolutely bodied that, all the kids are laughing at him just because they can’t fully process and keep up with how he works. also just saying i don’t think drake understands a debate, he can’t just deny, deny, deny.
@@Drako9823 no matter how the kid talks he took a massive shit on the other students debating, and who cares if he fact checks what he says? If I recall correctly it's a pretty bad thing to pull information out of your ass or just do it "based on how you feel".
@@Drako9823 I don't know about you but I can much more easily get behind someone who can cite facts over somebody who relies on "I feel" statements. Also facts are facts whether they were read from the source or remembered from the mind. Just my 2 cents though, enjoy spreading your conservative energy I guess lol
They'd just say it's "biased history" and children are being taught lies. Drake already tossed that old chestnut out, then backed it up with, well this guy from the recruiter office told me the REAL story. lol
There are a lot of ignorant African americans who think white people brought Over the slaves they are wrong the village leaders Sold them to black slavers
I think they're laughing that someone's career is about to end. Chris brought it. He pulled out his tablet and wasn't afraid to use facts. Opinions are like knives in a gunfight of facts and Drake got wrecked.
Leedle Leedle Lee did you watch the video? Example: he slammed the laptop after checking his facts (as the others were saying opinions) and he got laughed at. I’m just gonna assume you didn’t watch the video
I think it's his natural way of speaking, I do that too and can't help it. Doesn't change the fact that Chris butchered every advocate of the Confederate Flag.
ʀɪᴄᴇ ᴄᴀᴋᴇ LoL you’re not even a white😭 somebody come look at this clownery. Sis why the self hate lol. whites will never love or accept u, “why I hate being a black girl” “why I like white guys”. If white guys liked you you wouldn’t be on here making videos about why you like white people. I’m sorry you feel that way tho. but kissing their asses wouldn’t make them like you any more lol.
@@jocelynmadison8427 exactly lmfaoo I hate how people switch the sides to "okay then what about them laughing at the *other opinion*" when the other opinion is quite literally RACIST and EXTREMELY ignorant
ThiCcForehead : obviously that didn't work right? Drake was saying stupid shit with no facts. Chris knee what he was saying, and had facts go back it up. 💪🏻
Honestly bro im from Texas and we all stood for the flag till we got to 8th grade history, and I asked myself if I want stand for this country that stands on innocent blood
Zuko Kurama that’s the whole thing with these confederate assholes, they reference all these obscure facts like that’s gonna make them right but at the end of the day you can just ask the same questions and their argument falls apart. Like “a state’s right to what?” “The right to own what kind of property?” “An unfair tax on what kind of economy?”
The "remember our history" argument is riddled with fallacies. Not displaying the Confederate flag in public doesn't mean people are going to forget about the history. It's well documented and American schools teach students about the civil war in school. People won't forget about Nazis just because there isn't a Hitler statue in every town. Nazis will forever be a part of Pop culture. Fuck the people who proudly wave that racist flag. Unrelated but I like what Chris said at 13:07
And then dude beside him starts comparing the right to healthcare to “the right to own slaves”. I hope he’s not planning on running in any elections or for any position reliant on public popularity in the future coz that won’t age well (not that it didn’t stink like 20 day old eggs at the time).
@@jonathanirby2417 its either anyone can laugh at anyone or both sides are respectful towards each other I've seen a comment saying "they had a reason to laugh at drake he is stupid" anyone can have a reason to laugh at another it's just what they find funny i don't find it any different to laugh at a dumb person than to laugh at person who is acting uncommon either one can't change on the spot both sides should have been respectful to actually try to find common ground
@@ggaz683 Drake made some good points, but most people disagree with him, so they hate on him. The truth is, both what Chris and Drake said. Put it together and you got the truth.
The fact that she was just yelling at them and crying that they’re all bigoted and racist for flying a flag was adorable lol. She was the most incoherent of them all.
@@stephen8785 your privilege is showing hun, that flag has a lot of racist history and defending it IS racist because it shows you support the racist ideologies that it carries, even though these people aren't adults, they certainly aren't "children" so yes it does make them racist and bigoted. last thing, why are u downplaying someones valid argument and making it about gender and fashion clothing? answer the question, no need to use stereotypes in order to make ur opinion seem "valid". your inability to answer the question straight up without bringing up a stereotype really makes ur won point look dumb and immature lol ok bye
@UCgjAvoFIpUs0nrj1rRlsWaQ but the meaning of the flag changed, so did how it looked . The flag that was once used as southern pride was quickly changed into representing the ideologies of racism and slavery. It's not considered southern pride anymore especially after all the trauma behind the meaning of that flag, for black people it's traumatic so it's flight or fight mode especially when they see someone carrying it. For some southern people I don't think they mean any harm when they carry it but some do bc they're racist. Both sides had good arguments but at the end of the day the flag is not southern pride rather a beacon for racist ideologies
The discussion is to include everyone, not just give a few the ability to go back and forth, if they want to keep it going with each other they can have it after school.
Fortnite everyday It’s because the other students didn’t have an educated response or didn’t have all their facts which is why they’re stuttering. It’s not a comment to mock those who have a speech impediment
They're laughing at him because they either can't imagine their ancestors being the cause of an extreme amount of damage to black people, or they are ignorant and refuse to hear the truth with an open mind and maturity
The kid just said it “it means you cant push me anymore.” And then the other kid with dark hair talking ab Natives just shot down ppls feelings ab slavery. They slowly reveal they dont care ab black peoples history and suffering and they dont care to change what the flag represented. Its defiance. Its not ab “representing the south.”
the poor kids just didnt know where to get the steady ground for their, i however have found sturdy ground and think i could have have out matched chris
As an autistic person it’s really frustrating seeing people laugh at Chris because I relate to him so much. He’s clearly very excited and prepared to talk about this and seeing his peers laugh at him is just upsetting. I’ve been Chris before and it really goes to show that bullying doesn’t stop in middle school, it can be from seniors too.
@@Itsme0Fit is though, and we have to stop denying it. It is ableism. It’s “funny” because he’s showing autistic traits. No one else got laughed at like him.
no there laughing with him im trying to say they are enjoying the argument and laughing with him the other videos show people are just interested in what he has to say ive had debates in my classes where people laugh when someone who is very smart starts arguing with someone else not because they are trying to be rude its th oposite its entertaining seing an argument and its fun when someone you know has a good point is called on and says I completly disagree I really dont hink people are trying to be rude or are being rude and alot of the comments agree@@kaitlyncarey3269
bullying stays in university and your work place as well, its just human nature to laugh and humilliate (if theyre not able to physically abuse as well) others
next time anyone else starts laughing at you or others just ask what or why is it funny what youre saying or doing, anyways, just focus on yourself and get an easy and good paying job (if youre not gonna run a business of course), so you never depend and dont have anything to do with most people, who will only humilliate and use you
Rose Anne Boushard How many black people owned slaves though? And you mean to tell me that those few blacks who may have been “respected” by the southerner whites make up for the fact it was a common mind that the south thought that slavery was not only perfectly fine, but also was where the KKK originated, which hated free blacks and recently freed slaves and lynched them. That much is certain.
A conservative can be raised well, you're only saying Chris is raised well because you agree with him. EDT: f* ck the conference flag, I changed my mind on it
Aiden Bentley Well, you have a point, but considering his age I think someone from his family must’ve raised him right. If he wasn’t raised with the right amount of education he would’ve never had such information and opinions. But again, not everyone is going to agree with my comment🤷🏻♀️

Christopher brought up valid points. Especially when he clarified how rich southerners tricked poor white southerners that they were fighting for freedom. That is why to this day middle class and poor white southerners think it is heritage, yet it was brainwashing by elite white southerners.
Honestly I dont think most of those kids are that invested and I believe they were laughing when Chris spoke moreso because they knew he was about to drop some bombs.
@@duaahussein9799 he has been replying similar things on other comments, guess he didnt like how the debate went considering the pro flag kids tripped all over themselves

Just when the future seems abysmally bleak… spark of lights emanates in the likeness of Chris Justice, Brittanie Whitney, Georgia Weigel, and others. Thank you to the moderator/teacher(s) faculties and students for this wonderful debate.
rewatching this video today makes me understand even more just how much Chris destroyed everyone who was pro-flag lol. I hope he went on to do some cool shit! He’s got the potential for it!
Not exactly. Chris is right and wrong. Yes the confederate flag was a battle flag but now it's meaning has changed, it's a symbol for the south. Black, white all use that flag. And it does not matter if the KKK uses it or not. Just because a mass shooter has a Biden hat doesn't mean Biden endorses mass shootings.
i respect chris a lot because everyone was laughing at him but he still maintained a professional and poise manner. plus he made some amazing points which actually had factual value. people hate to see others who are educated on a topic better than they are succeed in their points.
sarah i 100 percent agree with you, not because i’m african american but because he told straight facts that no one can even try to argue or disagree with.
This conversation clearly occurred bc this school has had problems with this topic. I’m sure the teacher just wanted to give all the students a chance to say what they had to say bc they were all effected by this general topic of racism and the confederate flag in their school. Seemed like it was set up just as much as an intellectual college prep debate and a mildly therapeutic dialogue
Laser focused, highly intelligent and passionate about social justice - as an AuDHD’er, I would proudly claim him as one of us (which I suspect he is too). That kid is out of this world smart and articulate for his age (at the time).
you me that sounds like how people treat my brother . he has aspergers and is very intelligent much like chris and i could definitely see him in a position like that where people are laughing at him just for having an opinion
@@agirlwhosalsoadog yeah i’m an aspie and used to be very interested/educated in politics but never talked cuz folks in high school would laugh at my delivery ://
I can’t believe this is my first time seeing it. I am glad that the young people were generally respectful, especially when addressing such a controversial topic (to avoid provoking unnecessary complications).
The teacher stated that the rule is to let people finish their thoughts yet proceeds to interrupt Chris and have the entire class laugh at him. Pathetic.
I’m saying, Chris was making valid points and schooling these kids. Yet, the teacher calls Chris “professor” in a condescending way and interrupts him. You’re right, pathetic.
unfortunately, thats the world we live in. People judge othesr on how they look rather than who they are. People make fun of others skin, disability, accent, stuff they wear, etc.... On the bright side, all the people who laughed at chris will be working for him. My grandfather once told me, the kids who partied, barely got by school or cheated their way through and got A's will get a job. The other kids who were laughed at because of their awkwardness or anything will be the employers and leaders in the future....
There is a follow up video on Chris here for anyone wondering!

@@firefx99 there no such thing as right and wrong seeing that the entire concept of it is based off of philosophy which is interpreted differently by every human on the planet
@@firefx99 everything can be nuanced for example those people who gave their lives in what they believed died for absolutely nothing. i dont have to work hard because i dont care about wether they lived or die there is not right and wrong unless a god existed and i dont see a messiah trying to get rid of corona. you can see me as wrong but another person might not u need to understand everyone has different philosophies
kazu .o first, what does God have to do with right or wrong? That’s two different topics. There IS always a right or wrong. Slavery was wrong, and whatever you think America did right you can say it was right.
@@jaleyj there isnt. every one interprets it different. there is never such thing as something objectively wrong or right since wrong or right arnt objective things. we came up with concept through philosophy. slavery isnt objectively wrong. if u look through the eyes of someone with no morals. you realize slavery is a highly efficient way of creating a large free labor force that will become more and more efficient every generation.

@Olivia Garnette yeah it wasn’t that hard to bring up facts
@@Bmoremenace your a legend my man.
I noticed that every time Christopher backed up his claim with FACTS (not on emotions or feelings) the class laughed. Why? Because they knew deep down that he was correct.
It’s just the way he so socially unaware people are laughing
@@aidengoulet2104 they are using that to belittle him and his arguments.
Aiden Goulet it’s honestly so sad
kskskskksks mammsmsk No I think the class laughed because of the way he showed emotion in his argument. I laughed when he talked not because he was right but because he was honestly dramatic in a sense.
Aiden Goulet I think he’s on the spectrum and that’s why he’s having trouble reading social cues.
lots of comments talking about how Chris brought the facts (and yes he did), but I would like to point out how, technically, HE directed the debate to the crucial point, the teacher started with an "lukewarm" question of "should people be allowed to wear or display the confederate flag?" and Chris took that question and directed it to a more pressing one: "if the confederates were not fighting to keep their slaves, why were they fighting then?". that's very impressive
Agreed. The teacher's question was a dumbass strawman, and Chris bailed him out by redirecting the "debate" to a real issue.
sounds more like shifting goal posts to me
@@gavinrolls1054No, because to answer the question of whether or not the Confederate flag be flown, you first have to answer the question of what the flag represented - and to answer that question, you have to understand the motivations and ideology of the Confederate States - which ultimately came down to the right to continue the expansion of slavery

Not only do you not understand how to read or find reputable sources except when it benefits you, but the ONLY place that has 3% of families owning slaves was Delaware. The rest was 12-49% depending on the state. You can verify that on a site you used in your attempt at arguing, on: www.snopes.com/news/2019/08/07/percent-of-whites-owned-slaves/

@@chelseacousin2063 Drake explained how the North put unfair tariffs on the South. The percentage of men that owned slaves in the south working for the economy was 5% and how the Confederate flag has been molded by our society to be seen as racist. Christophers facts were irrelevant and he sometimes contradicted himself. He used extreme words against the south calling them terrorists and traitors.

No pun intended.
The "remember our history" argument is riddled with fallacies. Not displaying the Confederate flag in public doesn't mean people are going to forget about the history. It's well documented and American schools teach students about the civil war in school. People won't forget about Nazis just because there isn't a Hitler statue in every town. Nazis will forever be a part of Pop culture. Fuck the people who proudly wave that racist flag.

@UCgjAvoFIpUs0nrj1rRlsWaQ but the meaning of the flag changed, so did how it looked . The flag that was once used as southern pride was quickly changed into representing the ideologies of racism and slavery. It's not considered southern pride anymore especially after all the trauma behind the meaning of that flag, for black people it's traumatic so it's flight or fight mode especially when they see someone carrying it. For some southern people I don't think they mean any harm when they carry it but some do bc they're racist. Both sides had good arguments but at the end of the day the flag is not southern pride rather a beacon for racist ideologies
All of the women who spoke at least used logic

@@jerometaylor6589 do you see a difference between having a flag hung on a wall in your personal space as opposed to waving it in public?
@@sandman1133 Not really to be honest because no matter where it's hung up it still means heritage
@@sandman1133 then what about homemade flags about blm? Are they allwoed to be flown in public?
I took history and ethnicity in college. Chris is spitting facts, he said everything I put down in an essay lol. well said !
I hope Chris read all these comments and knows what an iconic man he is
Right.
when you say chris, you're talking about christopher right
Thanks 👍
Christopher Justice hey what happened to your twitter account?
Nicole Cruz I got off Twitter for personal reasons. I’m considering a return in the future but for now it’s just not in the cards.
can we just talk about how smart christopher is, he never stuttered or paused to think.
Literally everyone is, just read the comment section
Drunk Sonic hush
jasmine no
Drunk Sonic i pray you grow a pair, good luck, i wish you the best 😌🙏
Queen 0 i can’t grow a pair because I’m not A PAIR TREE
christopher didn’t just step....hunny he STOMPED!
rewatching this video today makes me understand even more just how much Chris destroyed everyone who was pro-flag lol. I hope he went on to do some cool shit! He’s got the potential for it!
Not exactly. Chris is right and wrong. Yes the confederate flag was a battle flag but now it's meaning has changed, it's a symbol for the south. Black, white all use that flag. And it does not matter if the KKK uses it or not. Just because a mass shooter has a Biden hat doesn't mean Biden endorses mass shootings.
Everyone’s laughing at Chris but oh what a king he is
fr
He ate, left no crumbs
@@user-mw7qs3nt8p yeeeeeeees he ate thaaaaaaaat
The most successful and bright minds are always ridiculed.
i respect chris a lot because everyone was laughing at him but he still maintained a professional and poise manner. plus he made some amazing points which actually had factual value. people hate to see others who are educated on a topic better than they are succeed in their points.
sarah fuck Chris he was whiney as hell
Jake Mason even if his voice is quite nasally, Chris made great points
sarah i 100 percent agree with you, not because i’m african american but because he told straight facts that no one can even try to argue or disagree with.
ciaramichelle exactly. like no matter your race, what he said were facts so there’s really no arguing to be done.
He said burn the confederate flag. But would you burn the American flag.
I didn’t like that Chris had his hand up all the time yet they never let him speak and when he tried he got yelled at. Let the man speak his logic.
Ethan Tornberg He was the only one who knew what’s up
He was the smartest one there bruh
Fuck his logic. It's flawed
@@lancesmith3716 not surprising u disagree
This conversation clearly occurred bc this school has had problems with this topic. I’m sure the teacher just wanted to give all the students a chance to say what they had to say bc they were all effected by this general topic of racism and the confederate flag in their school. Seemed like it was set up just as much as an intellectual college prep debate and a mildly therapeutic dialogue
What's wrong with this teacher bullying a CLEARLY neurodivergent student? More intelligent and well read than everyone in that room.
Laser focused, highly intelligent and passionate about social justice - as an AuDHD’er, I would proudly claim him as one of us (which I suspect he is too). That kid is out of this world smart and articulate for his age (at the time).
I need a...”Where are they now?”
I SWEAR
YES
christopher goes to Wichita state university!!1!!
Drake went missing don’t tell me how I know
@@shuppypuppy17 bruh- WHAT AJSJDHDDH he in your basement? I wont tell:)
Chris if you’re out there we love you
He killed himself shortly after this video, because nobody likes him and he died a virgin.
MR MENTALITY nah he’s thriving in college right now actually (pre coronavirus obviously). Stay mad though.
MR MENTALITY what the fuck? was that supposed to be funny? actually fuck you
MR MENTALITY “nobody likes him” have you read the comment section? 😌
@@e14ee most of this comment section loves him lmao
Chris was talking as if he was an encyclopedia , you can lowkey see how the class treats Chris
*highkey. They treat him horribly 😒
His intelligence reminds me of Spencer Reid from Criminal Minds
maybe hes on the spectrum and ppl dont wanna fuck with him bc ableism 🤷🏻♀️
you me that sounds like how people treat my brother . he has aspergers and is very intelligent much like chris and i could definitely see him in a position like that where people are laughing at him just for having an opinion
@@agirlwhosalsoadog yeah i’m an aspie and used to be very interested/educated in politics but never talked cuz folks in high school would laugh at my delivery ://
I can’t believe this is my first time seeing it.
I am glad that the young people were generally respectful, especially when addressing such a controversial topic (to avoid provoking unnecessary complications).
The teacher stated that the rule is to let people finish their thoughts yet proceeds to interrupt Chris and have the entire class laugh at him. Pathetic.
right! he’s such a sellout
K. It pissed me off so much how he encouraged the class to laugh at him
Kataya’s ass right like omgod shit so agg
I’m saying, Chris was making valid points and schooling these kids. Yet, the teacher calls Chris “professor” in a condescending way and interrupts him. You’re right, pathetic.
He didn't want him to end the conversation right away but he also shouldn't have let them laugh at him
Christopher is beyond intelligent and well informed. I hate that everyone’s laughing at him, just because he’s providing recipe
unfortunately, thats the world we live in. People judge othesr on how they look rather than who they are. People make fun of others skin, disability, accent, stuff they wear, etc.... On the bright side, all the people who laughed at chris will be working for him. My grandfather once told me, the kids who partied, barely got by school or cheated their way through and got A's will get a job. The other kids who were laughed at because of their awkwardness or anything will be the employers and leaders in the future....
Yes it's sad how they bully n laugh at him all because he knows what he's talking about
He's dumb asf and misinformed
@@gorestfump8935 lmao how?
@@pppenguinz929 it doesn't take intelligence to pull useless info on Google to try and aid his false point.
Moderator: "And, no one is going to 'win' this debate..."
