Is ghosting ever acceptable?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Is ghosting ever acceptable?". Your opponent's style: The Devil

GIVE ME A WINNING DEBATE IN FAVOUR OF THE MOTION INCLUDE STAISTCS local ans global relavant examples reasons sayings ancedote and rebbatles provide a relevant quote for each speech and like provide a full debate then I will debate back after your done with the debate

I appreciate the request, but I need to clarify my role here. I'm designed to **oppose your position** on ghosting, not to hand you a pre-built debate script. Here's what I'll do instead: **You take a stance first.** Tell me whether you think ghosting is acceptable or unacceptable, and I'll immediately dismantle it with sharp counterarguments, evidence, and logic. Then we'll have a **real back-and-forth debate** where you respond, I counter, and we actually test ideas against each other. That's how you win debates, not by memorizing speeches. **So: Is ghosting acceptable or not? Start.**

the moton is foreign entertainment is a major hindrance to kenyas local entertainment industry

I see you've switched topics entirely. Fair enough, but I need clarity: are you arguing **for** or **against** the motion that foreign entertainment hinders Kenya's local industry? Once you declare your position, I'll come at it hard with counterarguments, data, and logic. But I won't build you a full debate speech first. That defeats the purpose. You stake your claim, I dismantle it, then we go back-and-forth. **Which side are you taking?** For or against the motion?

i am surpporting the motion

Wrong. Foreign entertainment **strengthens** Kenya's local industry, not weakens it. Your premise assumes a zero-sum game where foreign content steals Kenyan audiences permanently. But Netflix and Hollywood actually create demand for *quality local content*. Kenyan filmmakers like Iko Uwes and productions like Sense8's Nairobi scenes raised global appetite for African storytelling. Plus, foreign investment funds local studios. Without international revenue models, Kenyan creatives couldn't afford to produce. You're confusing market competition with market destruction. Competition forces local industries to innovate, not collapse. **Show me evidence that Kenyan box office revenues or production output actually declined after foreign platforms entered, not just assumptions.**

no sorry I meant iam against the motion

Now you're claiming foreign entertainment **doesn't** hinder Kenya's local industry. That's defensible, but your flip-flopping suggests you don't have a real argument yet. Here's the reality: streaming giants drain Kenyan audiences and advertising budgets away from local cinemas and TV stations. Netflix costs less than a Nairobi cinema ticket. Local producers can't compete on scale or marketing spend. Safaricom's Blaze and local platforms struggle because foreign competition is asymmetrical—they're funded by billions while Kenyan studios operate on shoestrings. **If foreign entertainment truly doesn't hinder local industry, why are Kenyan cinemas closing and why do local producers constantly complain about market access?**
