Taking as an example where statue removal took place would be a better way to prove the outcome and adjust the argument for prop or opp.
In this motion values become the line of reasoning not evidence, data about the cost and time needed to make such changes would be topics for further argumentation.
Given the nature of the topic about a group of young students in a sensitive time of change and self discovery, using values to side with use or ban of makeup would be an easy way to conclude a line of reasoning appealing to the listeners’ principles.
Facts are clear evidence of current internet use. The other options would refer to the ethical side of the arguments or the policies to implement in this issue.
On top of providing some data on the filters imposed by online platforms and websites it’s important to prove what is the principle that is defined relating to freedom of speech.
Winning an argument goes beyond pulling out the best figures but proving the underlying value of freedom.
