oh my god yes the Dr. Kristi Winters vs Carl of Swindon debate. it's surprisingly good TV, right up there with Zizek v. Peterson and Foucault v. Chomsky in the annals of televised pissing matches.
Never heard of the Foucault v. Chomsky, only the Chomsky v. Buckley debate. Though that is from a time from before conservatives abandonned all belief in reality, so maybe getting some of them to admit that they lost was less dificult than it is now.
Buckley's biggest weakness was his unshakable belief in the superiority of his own beliefset and watching it came crashing down never gets old. Buckley also spent his entire life trying to become the leading right wing intellectual, while denying that the right was (or has always been) getting increasingly anti-intellectual.
This kind of fucks me up that the guy moderator killed the woman moderator about a year later (apparently a PTSD flashback?) and was convicted of first degree murder
