In an astonishing display of courage, internet user EdgyWolf admitted to be wrong in an online debate. After 3 gruesome days of googling and article referencing, EdgyWolf accepted that the opposing site clearly had more sound arguments.
"The articles were written by well paid established news resources. I could never compete with petty blog references and rational arguments. It was evident that appeals to emotion got the most upvotes. I lost." EdgyWolf admitted.
This is the one of the few times we are witnessing such a rare phenomenon displayed online. Internet users from around the world gathered in the public forums to discuss this once-in-a-lifetime event and how it would impact the future of the internet.
In Linda Power's, mother of three, words; "I am shocked. I made sure my children got off school early so that we could browse the live discussion of EdgyWolf's defeat. This has never happened before. I don't know how things will unfold from here on".
For those that witnessed the debate, words can't describe the flow of emotions. Links, videos and references were thrown in every comment while the viewers upvoted and downvoted in order to confirm their own biases. It was spectacular. EdgyWolf and Nostradarn belittled each other's intelligence countless times but clearly Nostradarn had the best punchlines and newest smiley faces. His passive aggressiveness and pseudo-intellectualism could was clearly superior. Anyone could see it.
We asked Nostradarn how he will actualize this once in a lifetime accomplishment. His words were moving: "I will definitely include this triumph in my resume. I am still young and this is something every respectable company values. It can help me climb the career ladder and actually help do something to improve our internet".
In a celebration that will take place in 2 weeks EdgyWolf will be shamed publicly by apologizing to every single user that did not like her arguments. She will say "I was wrong" 14322 times while Nostradarn's accomplishment will serve as a pivotal reference for judging future online debates.
