Capitalism is not natural or inevitable, extending it to space is a political choice. Empirics prove it will be disastrousPenny 20 AND would allow venture capitalists to stake their claim in a new space scramble. Risks of private space activity vastly outweigh- government space programs are regulated and equitable. Private space risks handing a megalomaniac their own death starKaminska 14 AND to the risk of a megalomaniac that wants to rename Mars one day.

PS - Peninsula R6 - C2 CapitalismTournament: PS - Peninsula Invitational | Round: 6 | Opponent: West Ranch JY | Judge: Diana Alvarez Contention 2: CapitalismWe defend the resolution: The appropriation of outer space by private entities is unjustTo clarify, we perform a moral calculus about whether private appropriation is just or notCapitalist futurism makes it easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism. We don’t need a revolutionary break, we need a progressive series of steps that redefine political economy and space is a crucial starting point. The end of capitalism isn’t possible, it’s necessaryRobinson and O’Keefe 20 AND , "space science is Earth science," and I totally believe that. Beware the space industrial complex- it’s only purpose is to bring unequal relations to the stars – futurism should be viewed with "extreme skepticism"Savage 21 AND the global economy. Must we let them own the solar system too? There is no such thing as "space philanthropy"- private actors are interested in self promotion, not saving humanity. Their efforts directly gut government programs to allow market captureRiederer 18 AND mankind is as much a symbol of tragic consequences as of human progress. | 1/23/22 |

You are conditioned to discount structural violence because it occurs outside of traditional risk frames, which normalizes state-sanctioned violence.Hunt 18 AND her work gestures toward the alternatives that might be offered by Indigenous frames. Prioritizing flashpoint conflicts and crises is a privileged form of impact calculus. Slow violence is rendered invisible under traditional moral frameworks because it happens at the level of the everyday.Ahmann 18 AND overt objects of contestation among historically disenfranchised groups (see also Liboiron 2015). | 1/23/22 |
