How To Win Every Argument - Mehdi Hasan | Intelligence Squared

Mehdi Hasan is one of the most formidable debaters and interviewers of our times, famous on both sides of the Atlantic for the hard-hitting exchanges he conducts with politicians on his MSNBC television show. And in March 2023 he came to the Intelligence Squared stage in London to reveal his tips and techniques of persuasion, which he sets out in his new book Win Every Argument: The Art of Debating, Persuading, and Public Speaking.
As Hasan points out, there is no escaping arguments. Whether on Twitter, in Parliament or at the dinner table, we all feel the very human urge to voice our disagreement. Arguing itself often gets a bad rap and is blamed for everything from political polarisation to marital breakdown. But as Hasan contends, debate and argument are the very lifeblood of democracy. They are a means of establishing the truth, of opening our minds to new ideas and of working our way through problems. We just need to get better at them.
Taking us from Demosthenes to Churchill, from Cicero to Martin Luther King, Tony Blair and Elizabeth Warren, Hasan showed the importance of the art of persuasion throughout history and explain how we can all master this vital skill.

    Mehdi should be the standard for all journalism. Every journalist should do their homework, ask tough follow up questions, and scrutinize conflicts of interest. It's incredible how refreshing we find someone like Mehdi because he actually does good journalism. His style should be the norm across the board.

    You do realise British people now are natives right? 90% of the white British population ancestors never left Britain and actually fought against colonisers. I’m Celtic and British…my ancestors never left Britain and our standard of living only increased during the Industrial Revolution that the working class British started in the north of England…they had nothing to do with the royal family and upper class do abroad nor did it impact their lives apart from being taxed and starved to death for centuries to fund these royal colonial trips…we got nothing back

But issue is he himself has nothing to present... He cleverly comes with texts of Religious out of context and then present in distorted way...... That was case ....ofcourse mehdi is young and unexperince in that field.... So he may lose arguing sometimes..... Overall he has good qualities for arguments

    I've followed and appreciated Mehdi for years, but now that he's on MSNBC the question must be asked: has he become a corporate shill? I realize Al Jazeera is also a corporation, but in the UK, where he was based and reported, their bias is less relevant than it would be in Qatar. At MSNBC (Comcast) the corporate agenda has always been very clear and a number of quality journalists once employed by them (Cenk, Krystal Ball) have spoken out about the "Manufactured Consent" and "Propaganda Model" employed by the editorial heads. So won't it now become reflexive for Mehdi to minimize or outright ignore Democratic malfeasance while on the other hand solely focusing on GOP transgressions ( granted of which there are an almost infinite supply)?

And that friends, is why you should never trust this man. He just told you for 30 minutes to use whatever tricks you need, then told you he likes an opponent that is acting in “good faith,” that is the worst kind of discovery of “truth” you could possibly hope for. And even worse he brags about it being good for his career. So in summary he’ll do whatever he must, truth be damned, to make money. Interesting

    @@yourlogicalnightmare1014 Your argument is entirely based on your perception for which you have no basis. It’s pretty morally confronting to see you and those like you argue that religion disqualifies one of logical capacities, when the lack of religion is the disease. Religion is guidance, whether you believe it right or wrong, religion gives you universal morals from your Creator, it provides you with a concrete system for dealings in this life, a concrete system for dialogue with others, it provides you with a certainty that what you are doing is right or wrong. Instead, you prefer to turn back on your heels from The One who created you and follow your own, limited by most means, logic and desire. An atheist has absolutely no moral basis for anything except by vice of his own delusion. The laws of a secular country are constantly in movement, with no stability and certainty. John Stuart Mill - I’ve read him, and honestly, a great philosopher - however when he attempted to find a basis for atheist morality, he was confronted in his own book with problems and dilemma. Feinberg abandoned after 200 pages of attempting to rationalise and find a solution to the problems that arose. The heart of a religious person is more serene and tranquil in regards to his certainty for right and wrong than the heart of a disbeliever, constantly wavering between doubt and delusion of might and power. You have a Creator - unless you created yourself or you were created from nothing - and your Creator knows best what is good for you. May The Creator of the Heavens and the Earth and what is between them guide you to the correct path.

    When don’t let the other guy speak, “you know if you really watch any his interviews, he never really listens”. He just got that one Oxford debate going for him, where his argument is clearly flawed but graced because the counter debater was weak and fearful.

    A prosecutor does NOT compile a case, file a case, take their case to court, start arguing it, and *THEN* engage in _self-reflection_ and a _search for truth._ FFS! You clearly - as is clear in _ALL_ of your comments - just have a grudge against this man. I presume you're an intractably-offended Matt Taibbi fan _(inferring from another of your comments)._ Matt got something *_very badly wrong_* and he got called on it. An adult should be able to handle that.

    I love watching Medhi Hassan totally breaking all the rules of logic, being arrogant, and thinking anyone of any real intelligence are swayed by fallacious arguments. Here’s an example: Hasan believes Mohammed flew to Jerusalem on a winged horse. His entire view on religion is that it’s true because he believes it. When debating or trying to trash Matt Tiabbi, he tried to negate his reporting by pointing out one inconsistency and apply it to the whole body of work. The fact that he believes that argumentation is more important than the truth tells you everything you need to know. “Go against the ball and the player.” Ad Hominem attacks are like the first and only logically fallacy most people know. When a person does this it means that they aren’t interested in truth. Hasan isn’t interested in truth, and you should be anxious about his motives.

    Hasan wiped the floor with Taibbi. Not just because Mehdi's a better debater, but because Matt's massively wrong. Describing multiple factual errors - and the massively misleading conclusions that were *_BASED ON_* those factual errors - as "one inconsistency," is pi†ifuIIy dishonest.

    If the first and only logical fallacy you've heard of, is "Ad Hominem attacks" then you might _also_ have a limited familiarity with terms like "projection," and may therefore be unfamiliar with which of your behaviours it refers to. So maybe look that up, unless you're fully aware of it, and your behaviour is intentional.
