1 +Democracy and Capitalism are fatally intertwined; Capitalism continues to thrive at the expense of democratic ideas. Left unchecked, capitalism will continue to rupture democracies globally; corporate elites, lack of free and fair elections, and runaway climate change all point to democracies dying at the hands of Capitalism.

8 +It’s in the classroom, it drives the rapid acceleration of climate change, and is the gasoline that is poured on the culture war fire that envelops micro-political discussions. Democracy and capitalism are intertwined. So I stand resolved that civil disobedience in a democracy is morally justified as a response to unrestrained Capitalism. Today’s value is human life OVER profits.

32 +Capitalism is around us every day. It permeates politics, over codes what we learn in the classroom and is simultaneously oppressing us at every turn. Thus we believe it’s best to be civilly disobedient in the fact of economic oppression.
33 +
34 +Thus, we endorse civil disobedience through the affirmation of the Communist Hypothesis. Every ethical decision – up to the ballot itself – should be infused with all of the significance of humanity’s destiny. The question regarding the aff is “does it confirm or contradict the communist hypothesis.” If we win the uniqueness question, you should reject alternatives because they reduce life to a barbaric ratrace and stand opposed to universal emancipation.
