Is ghosting ever acceptable?
Debate between a user and The Devil on DebateAI.org
Daily Debate #611: "Is ghosting ever acceptable?". You are arguing AGAINST the motion. Your opponent: The Devil.
Ghosting should be acceptable in some situations. If someone is nonstop bugging you even when you have blocked them and begged them to stop then you should be able to ghost them since they will not leave you alone. In some cases like if you just simply do not like the person because they don’t have the same interests as you or you think they are “ugly” or something along those lines then I feel like ghosting shouldn’t be acceptable in that case.
You're actually arguing *against* ghosting being acceptable, and you just proved it yourself. You said ghosting is only okay when someone's harassing you after blocking—that's not ghosting, that's ignoring a stalker. Ghosting is disappearing without explanation when things are normal. You admitted the real cases—shallow rejections, incompatibility—demand honesty, not silence. So you've already conceded the motion. Either ghosting is always wrong, or you're defending something that isn't actually ghosting. Which is it?
