Debate for puppets: Is the Earth flat?
How is the COVID vaccine linked to the sudden deaths of young people? Trump will stop the satanic elites from using elixirs made from children's blood, space lasers, and election fraud. Why do people believe that the Earth is flat? Is it because of low IQ? My husband is planning a car accident for me, wrote Princess Diana a year before her death. America's biggest lie of all time? They didn't actually land on the moon. Did Adolf Hitler survive? In October 2011, a middle-aged man held up a banner reading "The Holocaust did not happen." Can microwaves harm your health? The American conservative right is telling stupid lies!

DEBATA PRO LOUTKY (Debate for Puppets) is a project and now a collective that originated at DAMU and moved in June to a new cultural space dedicated to young adult audiences, ARCHA+. It is a debate project based on the secret identities of individual guests. We are interested in how much a person is influenced in communication by the awareness of who they are talking to. Whether based on what they say, how they behave, or even what they look like. Therefore, neither the audience nor the debate moderator knows the identity of the guests, which opens up space for discussion without prejudice and with greater openness.
Each guest is given an "avatar" or alter ego—a puppet that will perform in their place that evening. The puppet is neutral, has no recognizable character, and thus allows the audience to form an opinion of the debater based solely on their reasoning and attitudes. For this reason, the format is called Debate for Puppets.
