College Debate to Take Place in Actual Echo Chamber
Ivy League debates will now take place in a mysterious underground chamber, said to deflect harmful dissenting views.
A prestigious Ivy League University debate club has decided to take their intellectual sparring to a whole new level – literally. The club recently announced that all future debates will be held in an actual underground echo chamber, claiming the unique acoustics, dynamics and dimensions will serve to deflect and filter out harmful dissenting ideas and misinformation.
The decision came after months of brainstorming (and years of brainwashing), during which the club grappled with the pressing issue of how to shield their members from the perils of engaging with ideas that may challenge their worldview. The mysterious ancient echo chamber, recently discovered deep beneath the hallowed halls of academia, is said to be the perfect crucible for refining intellectual purity and will provide the safest of safe spaces for today’s students.
Club president, Theodore Pompous III, proudly declared, "We believe that by immersing ourselves in this echo chamber, we can create a pristine environment where only the most refined and unchallenged ideas can thrive. It's the perfect space for intellectual conformity."
The echo chamber, replete with plush velvet walls and gold-plated acoustics, is expected to host debates on a range of topics carefully curated to avoid any uncomfortable confrontation with inconvenient truths. Biology, equality, color blindness, economics, and overall decency have been specifically flagged as topics too perilous for the fragile sensibilities of the club's young members.
Critics, however, have raised eyebrows at the decision, questioning the validity of a debate club that actively avoids, well, actual debate. Professor Moxley Contrarian, a vocal opponent of the echo chamber initiative, remarked, "It's quite a unique approach to intellectual discourse. If by 'discourse' they mean virtue signaling to their woke peers with Marxist ideology, then they've certainly nailed it."
The echo chamber's grand opening is scheduled for next month, with a gala event featuring keynote speakers who are experts in the art of agreeing with one another. The club is confident that this bold move will set a new standard for academic insulation, ensuring that the fragile minds within remain blissfully untouched by the tumultuous winds of diverse thought.
Only time will tell if this experiment in intellectual isolation will produce the desired results or if it will leave the debate club echoing in the hollow chamber of their own misinformed, distorted philosophy.

Ja, sehr gut Wunderbar
Get them closer to where they will end up going, and closer to the real god, underground.
It is logic, the closer to their grave the better for their thoughts.
After all, death is all the should think about , all the rest is completely pointless for Ivy League students .
If can make a suggestion, their chairs should be made out of stone, and resemble tomb stones, perhaps with their names already engraved on it .
Wunderbar
I heard that the Debate Club is releasing a new version of the dictionary. Nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs are not allowed. Only prepositions, exclamations, and articles.
