MA - Truth TestingTournament: NORTTEXAS LONGHORNS DISTRICT TOURNAMENT | Round: 4 | Opponent: Plano East JN | Judge: Gentleman, Jonah Phil 1NCFramingThe Roll of The Ballot is to determine the truth or falsity of the resolution.3 Justifications:~1~ Textuality- 3 Dictionaries define to affirm as to prove true and negate as to deny the truth of. Here is one:https://www.dictionary.com/browse/affirm This has a few implications~A~ Grammar- Grammar outweighs since it's literally what structures our language and argumentation. Double bind- either they reject all grammatical arguments and thus reject communication and the debate itself or they accept grammatical arguments and accept truth testing.~B~ Jurisdiction—Truth testing is a constitutive feature of debate, meaning that the judge only has the jurisdiction to arguments that assert the truth or falsity of the resolution-not proving the truth value of the resolution automatically justifies voting neg~2~ Necessity- All statements assert implicit truth value i.e. if I say "I smell roses" that is the same as saying "It is true that I smell roses." This has a few implications.~A~ Double bind—either my opponent asserts the truth value of their indicts to truth testing meaning they implicitly accept truth testing as a paradigm or they don't assert the truth value of their indicts which means that they are false and truth testing is true anyways~B~ Even if we're losing on the framework debate, their framework is going to collapse to truth testing anyways~3~ Constituvism- Truth Testing is the only constitutive feature of debate – if affirm and negate means to prove true and deny the truth of then that means it must be constitutively truth testingNardin 92 Terry Nardin, "International Ethics and International Law". Review of International Studies, Vol. 18, No. 1 (Jan., 1992), pp. 19-30, published by Cambridge University Press. The first thing to observe in considering this objection is that the purposes of a practice are not necessarily the same as the purposes either of those who designed or of those who participate in it. From the standpoint of an umpire supervising a particular game of chess, the paramount consideration governing the play is that it should be in conformity with the rules of chess. If a player makes an illegal move, arguing that it will result in a more intellectually challenging game, the proper response is to ignore the argument and prohibit the move. In other words, the kinds of reasons that are valid within the game are different from those that might be considered by chess federation officials contemplating changes in the rules of the game. From the internal perspective of the player or the umpire, the authority of the rules is absolute Players or umpires may disagree about the interpretation or proper application of the rules, but they may not take the position that a valid, authoritative rule should be set aside. It is also important to distinguish between the intentions that may be embedded in a rule or system of rules and the consequences of observing that rule or participating in the system.
