Answer:
1. ISSUE: ANTI-TERRORISM ACT OF 2020.
Stand: Opposed to the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020.
Argument: The Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020 has provisions that could be abused to suppress dissent and violate human rights.
Evidence: There have been concerns raised by various human rights groups, legal experts, and citizens regarding the vague and overbroad provisions of the law. Some provisions could be used to target individuals and groups critical of the government, including activists, journalists, and opposition leaders. The law also allows for prolonged detention without charges and expands the government's surveillance powers, which could lead to abuse.
2. WHO IS A BETTER LEADER: SOMEONE WHO IS LOVED OR SOMEONE WHO IS FEARED?
Stand: A better leader is someone who is loved and respected.
Argument: A leader who is loved and respected is more likely to inspire loyalty, cooperation, and a sense of common purpose among their followers. Such leaders are more effective at building trust and relationships, motivating their followers to achieve their shared goals, and resolving conflicts peacefully. A leader who is feared, on the other hand, may provoke resentment, distrust, and resistance, leading to social and political instability.
Evidence: History has shown that leaders who were loved and respected, such as Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela, were able to inspire their followers to achieve great social and political change. By contrast, leaders who relied on fear and coercion, such as Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin, caused immense harm and suffering to their people and their countries.
