The internet is breeding entirely new species through a kind of decentralized, memetic gain-of-function research on human types. The men who signup for this show have studied a fair amount of data, which they've memorized reasonably well. They spent their formative years watching "content," carefully studying the techniques whereby their favorite personalities "destroy" their opponents with facts and logic. Then, finding their paths to adult male glory thwarted at every turn, a show like this represents their first real opportunity for recognition (which is not a luxury but a true human need, as Hegel noted). And after all those years sharpening their knives, they really do bring an unprecedented verbal style, more ruthlessly optimized on a single dimension than any men in history. Fast, vicious, cutting, and breathless. And yet, this gentleman gets flustered when asked his name. I've never seen anything like it, he almost starts sweating when asked his name. Despite all of their training, despite having become discourse superpredators, it's all achieved by such a monstrous neglect of other basic abilities that it completely undercuts their performance and guarantees the extinction of this otherwise fascinating germline.
