    It’s easy to be a contrarian when opinions are not something you actually hold, but simply hats to be swapped out or discarded as necessary.

      Kid’s probably on the debate team, they live to argue. Good luck figuring out their real opinions though, they might not even have any.

        Sadly this is just how many people operate, though I imagine the emphasis on L-D debate and convincing judges certainly contributes to our culture of engaging that way.
