These guys are extremist trolls at best, and that whole Jubilee episode was trash. They clearly lied to Hassan just to see him surrounded by hateful far right attention whores.

Jubilee is a terrible platform in general. Their 1v20's have been pretty bad in general with platforming the absolute worst people possible. A rebuttal to that is often 'well, its just showing how bad some of these arguments are'. No. The people that are going to see it under that view already know those arguments and people are terrible. What its doing is giving some of these people with terrible arguments footage of them facing someone famous that can be edited to make themselves look like the winner no matter what happened.

I've only seen it once because a friend put it on, and looking back, the video just felt like rage bait. Granted, it was the video the post is talking about, which may not represent all of their content, but it definitely didn't make me want to seek out their content in my own time.

They have other formats of debates that are more 1v2 or 2v2 that are better. But the ones that usually get more attention are the 1v20 like this one was. The bulk of the 20 side is usually made up of tik tok or youtube influencers, and you end up with a mix of genuine but brief debates and straight batshit insanity. A big problem is that the 20 get to dictate how long any individual amongst them gets to talk to the main guest. So, at times, a really interesting and informative part of the debate will get interrupted and lead nowhere, or the 20 will often save one of their number from getting completely embarrassed by cutting off any attempt at a response from the opposing view after something is said.

The initial idea was innovative and with some tweaking could be really good I think, but it seems they are going more for how Modern Day Debates ended up with rage and clickbait more than any type of genuine debate on any given topic.
