1 - G - Nick Land Bad KTournament: Harvard | Round: Triples | Opponent: American Heritage Broward SS | Judge: Panel Nick land wrote a book called the white enlightenment which has been cited by the Christchurch shooters and he’s evil – they cited them.A wave of cite: Ralston in 2020 quotes Shut Down LD50 in 2017. AND can merrily slop around on social media with the full gamut of racisms. This has an IRL impact – the Christchurch murderers cited Nick Land. Drop the debater – we need to deplatform Nick land and drop the arg is incoherent – get Nick Land off their wiki. Drop the debater deters future abuse. Accessibility first – if debate were inaccessible no one would do it and don’t eval impact turns since it’s your proximal obligation. Also personally constrains my ability to engage – look at the screenshots here – I’m from "the maghreb:"This a~ proves their K is incoherent and proactively harms people and b~is an independent reason to drop them on accessibility. TheySupercharged by the fact that it’s disclosed on your wiki which makes debate an unsafe space.KPerf ConTheir participation within the discursive practices of debate proves a performative contradiction which takes out the kritik. A) The nature of argumentation is that we communicate and produce more information – each round, argument, and tournament is a new data point – especially true with the wiki. B) Traveling to tournaments, being concerned with winning, hunting bids, all proves an investment in the system and your dependence on its recognition of you as a participant and "good debater." C) The form of debate is dialogical – it mandates a back and forth discussion which attempts to determine the truth of arguments in the eyes of a judge – that necessitates investment in its format.That’s also a voting issue. It proves under their own role of the ballot that they’ve merely been indoctrinated into the system they criticize – that outweighs because it’s a premediated misuse of their theory while mine was unintentional. | 2/25/22 |

ND21 - AC - AgonismTournament: Blue Key | Round: 5 | Opponent: Dougherty Valley KZ | Judge: Datti, Abhilash NSD21 – AC – Agonism (Spikes are on bottom)1ACFramingThe resolution is a question of what states ought to do so actor specificity is a side constraint on the framework debate.The state necessitates the paradox of exclusion — the necessary determination of who belongs to the state requires the exclusion of who doesn't while including everyone makes exercising rights impossible, Mouffe 2k(Chantal Mouffe, Professor at the Department of Political Science of the Institute for Advanced Studies. June 2000. "The Democratic Paradox") Even if that's not always true it's specifically true in the context of this resolution—it's a question of what is the just way for distinct states ought to channel disputes.Next, if the state require exclusion, the goal of politics should not be to overcome the us/them distinction. Instead, we should reorient the us/them distinction towards agonism instead of antagonism – this means recognizing the Other's right to their own ideas without labeling them an enemy to destroy. This constructs a polity despite the us/them distinction. Mouffe 10 bracketed for glang:*Bracketed for Gendered Language* Chantal Mouffe, political theorist, 7-25-2010, "Chantal Mouffe: Agonistic Democracy and Radical Politics," Pavilion ~#15, http://pavilionmagazine.org/chantal-mouffe-agonistic-democracy-and-radical-politics/ Thus, the standard is consistency with agonistic pluralism.Impact Calc –A~ There are 3 ways states can orient themselves with the us/them distinction: First, universality, in which they falsely deny the distinction's existence, second, antagonism, in which you try to destroy the other, and third, agonism in which you accept the others' difference. Since the resolution is a question of how states should interact, the only way to deny my framework is to prove either antagonism or false universality is better than agonism.B~ Agonism posits the conditions for truth construction – that means it functions as a metaethical constraint on other ethics and they aren't competitive with our principle.Prefer the standard additionally–1~ K solvency –A~ Only a state that accepts opposing views can ever be open to radical revision – other systems insist on their own foundation and can't accommodate changing views that make them exclusionary or illegitimate. Controls the internal link to other evaluative mechanisms: agonism makes it possible to implement them AND be receptive of the demands of justice to comeB~ Controls the internal link to all K alts and radical politics – the ability to speak out and fight for particular reforms is guaranteed by the agonistic mindset – alternatives shut down the collective ability to communicate to others to advance that agenda.2~ Rules cannot determine their own application: we reason within a framework of language and norms, but how to apply each of those norms in to a new situation is radically indeterminate. For example, there is nothing inherent in an arrow that shows a direction. Only agonism accounts for the diversity of interpretations of our norms. Democratic citizenship has diverse forms, none of which can be privileged a priori. If agents have different perspectives, there is no way to formulate a correct understanding – we need to accommodate different practices.3~ Performativity – debate assumes that difference exists, which is specifically true for switch side debate, and debate must protect the right to disagree without being targeted for your difference to ensure safety. That is a constitutive necessity of discourse spaces that outweighs on a pre and post fiat layer.A~ it is specific to the judge's obligation in the debate space, not just educational spaceB~ switch side debate could not exist without agonism, making it a pre-requisite to being in debate in the first place so participating in debate concedes it4~ Contradictions – willing lack of inquiry is a contradiction in terms because the assertion of a statement presupposes the validity of judgments in relation to a community of testers. Putnam 90:A RECONSIDERATION OF DEWEYAN DEMOCRACY HILARY PUTNAM* Walter Beverly Pearson Professor of Mathematical Logic, Harvard University. 1990 5~ Motivation – Ethics must recognize the right to provide and contest opinions – otherwise, people could disagree have no reason for them to accept standards. Morality would just be a hypothetical imperative, which can't produce an obligation. Merely justifying why an ethical theory is "true" does not matter if a person would never bind themselves to it.ContentionI affirm: Plan: Resolved: A just government ought to recognize an unconditional right of workers to strike.1~ Power – a right to strike helps resolve power imbalances between workers, companies, and the state, Sheppard 96:Terry Sheppard, 1996, "Liberalism and the Charter: Freedom of Association and the Right to Strike" LHP AV 2~ Barometer – the right to strike is a means of measuring compliance with democratic pluralism, Smart 85:SMART, BRIAN.

But traditionally philosophers have interested themselves in the external question – the issue of the adequacy of the framework itself: "Do objects exist?", "Does the world exist?", "Are there numbers?", "Are the propositions?", etc. Carnap's argument is that the external question, as it has been typically construed, does not make sense. From a perspective that accepts mathematics, the answer to the question "Do numbers exist?" is just trivially "Yes." From a perspective which has not accepted mathematics, Carnap thinks, the only sensible way of construing the question is not as a theoretical question, but as a practical one: "Shall I accept the framework of mathematics?", and this pragmatic question is to be answered by consideration of the efficiency, the fruitfulness, the usefulness, etc., of the adoption. But the (traditional) philosopher's questions – "But is mathematics true?", "Are there really numbers?" – are pseudo-questions. By turning traditional philosophical questions into practical questions of the form "Shall I adopt...?", Carnap is offering a noncognitive analysis of metaphysics. Since I am claiming that we can critically inspect morality from an external perspective – that we can ask whether there are any non-institutional reasons accompanying moral injunctions – and that such questioning would not amount to a "Shall we adopt...?" query, Carnap's position represents a threat. What arguments does Carnap offer to his conclusion? He starts with the example of the "thing language," which involves reference to objects that exist in time and space. To step out of the thing language and ask "But does the world exist?" is a mistake, Carnap thinks, because the very notion of "existence" is a term which belongs to the thing language, and can be understood only within that framework, "hence this concept cannot be meaningfully applied to the system itself." 16 Moving on to the external question "Do numbers exist?" Carnap cannot use the same argument – he cannot say that "existence" is internal to the number language and thus cannot be applied to the system as a whole. Instead he says that philosophers who ask the question do not mean material existence, but have no clear understanding of what other kind of existence might be involved, thus such questions have no cognitive content. It appears that this is the form of argument which he is willing to generalize to all further cases: persons who dispute whether propositions exist, whether properties exist, etc., do not know what they are arguing over, thus they are not arguing over the truth of a proposition, but over the practical value of their respective positions. Carnap adds that this is so because there is nothing that both parties would possibly count as evidence that would sway the debate one way or the other.

Only the will can account for the way the self relates to the outside world.~2~ Subjectivity – The will and the capacity to question our will defines the subject and what is intrinsic to it. That means the will is intrinsic and when evaluating subjectivity we must evaluate the subject's relation to the will.~3~ Proceduralism – The agent uses the will to engage in everything, which means being able to will is an intrinsic good under every ethical theory regardless of content and a pre-requisite to their ethical theory~4~ Morality – Expression of the will is how we arrive at moral truth; it enables us to weigh between arguments and situations to find the best one. Controls the internal link to their ethical theory.Syllogism====~1~ Subjectivity is naturally productive and conscious, entailing creative productivity. Wartenberg 82' ==== ~2~ How you will. Impaired will is volition that is disturbed in its functional capacity – when we do not have ourselves at our command and cannot meaningfully identify. Thus, alienation a question about the structure of the will – JaeggiJaeggi, Rahel. "Alienation." Columbia University Press, cup.columbia.edu/book/alienation/ LHP AB ~3~ Appropriation and Social Roles – Whether or not subjects are willing in an alienated way is determined by how they appropriate; appropriation is when the subject makes something truly their own, JaeggiJaeggi, Rahel. "Alienation." Columbia University Press, cup.columbia.edu/book/alienation/ LHP AB Therefore, all roles, including social roles, only exist as appropriated. You cannot separate the appropriator from the appropriated; they both define each other. When the subject appropriates something, they push themselves onto the outside world. What they and others push onto the outside world (appropriation) in turn applies to themselves.Thus, the standard and role of the ballot is to vote for the debater who best resists alienation – moving past alienation requires an ethics of grounded reciprocal relations with others, the only way to manage the type of authenticity in the 1AC – Nicholas 21Nicholas, L.

Feminist Theory, 22(2), 226–247. doi:10.1177/1464700120988641 Even though this view of freedom is situated in the world, politics always fails unless it engages first from the perspective of protecting freedom – the reason people may care about consequences is because of reciprocal relations.Nicholas, L. (2021). Remembering Simone de Beauvoir's "ethics of ambiguity" to challenge contemporary divides: feminism beyond both sex and gender. Feminist Theory, 22(2), 226–247. doi:10.1177/1464700120988641 ====Independently prefer:==== ====~1~ Performativity – ==== Everything you do, including debate, involves use of the will to create relations with the world and self, and vice versa – this concedes alienation as it is the only moral theory that accounts for this.====~2~ Moral Accountability – If you are alienated from yourself you cannot be morally responsible for what you do because it wasn't you rationally willing it. Thus, the only way to identify moral responsibility is to not be alienated.==== Impact Calc: a) The aff is based on how expression of the will is distanced from the self, i.e. whether or not subjects in general are in structures where they are able to appropriate, not what it is people want to appropriate b) Alienation is non consequentialist, it's about our relationship to the external and self. There is no empirical set of consequences where you are guaranteed to be non-alienated, so you can't look at consequences to determine alienation; rather, you have to look at structures.ContentionPlanResolved: A just government ought to recognize an unconditional right of workers to strike. I defend all strikes including secondary strikes and boycotts, and not allowing employers to replace workers to strike. I'll clarify and spec anything to a reasonable extent in CX to avoid friv theory debates.Offense~1~ Without strikes, workers are powerless against the government and employers, and feel distanced from their labor, disrespecting their subjectivity. Strikes enable workers to feel empowered as a unit, to appropriate their will and ideas of labor onto their own labor, and generally appropriate their ideas onto society, all resisting alienation LeninLenin, Vladimir Ilyich.

Marxists, 1924, www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1899/dec/strikes.htm. ~2~ The strike symbolizes worker power against force from the state and enables the masses to appropriate their ideas onto the state – removing it alienates the worker by intrinsically condemning this struggle, PalmeDutt, R.

Only the will can account for the way the self relates to the outside world.~2~ Subjectivity – The will and the capacity to question our will defines the subject and what is intrinsic to it. That means the will is intrinsic and when evaluating subjectivity we must evaluate the subject’s relation to the will.~3~ Proceduralism – The agent uses the will to engage in everything, which means being able to will is an intrinsic good under every ethical theory regardless of content and a pre-requisite to their ethical theory~4~ Morality – Expression of the will is how we arrive at moral truth; it enables us to weigh between arguments and situations to find the best one. Controls the internal link to their ethical theory.Syllogism====~1~ Subjectivity is naturally productive and conscious, entailing creative productivity. Wartenberg 82’ ==== AND in an egalitarian assumption, something to be valued for its own sake. ~2~ How you will. Impaired will is volition that is disturbed in its functional capacity – when we do not have ourselves at our command and cannot meaningfully identify. Thus, alienation a question about the structure of the will – JaeggiJaeggi, Rahel. "Alienation." Columbia University Press, cup.columbia.edu/book/alienation/ LHP AB AND In this way the problem of alienation is tied to that of freedom. ~3~ Appropriation and Social Roles – Whether or not subjects are willing in an alienated way is determined by how they appropriate; appropriation is when the subject makes something truly their own, JaeggiJaeggi, Rahel. "Alienation." Columbia University Press, cup.columbia.edu/book/alienation/ LHP AB AND own life without beginning from a position of already having complete command over them Therefore, all roles, including social roles, only exist as appropriated. You cannot separate the appropriator from the appropriated; they both define each other. When the subject appropriates something, they push themselves onto the outside world. What they and others push onto the outside world (appropriation) in turn applies to themselves.Thus, the standard and role of the ballot is to vote for the debater who best resists alienation – moving past alienation requires an ethics of grounded reciprocal relations with others, the only way to manage the type of authenticity in the 1AC. Any offense consistent with the internal links in the 1AC framewok and ROB counts as offense under the ROB. – Nicholas 21,Nicholas, L. (2021). Remembering Simone de Beauvoir’s "ethics of ambiguity" to challenge contemporary divides: feminism beyond both sex and gender. Feminist Theory, 22(2), 226–247. doi:10.1177/1464700120988641 AND situations, not individuals as abstract entities’ (Hekman, 2015: 146). Even though this view of freedom is situated in the world, politics always fails unless it engages first from the perspective of protecting freedom – the reason people may care about consequences is because of reciprocal relations.

Thus, the only way to identify moral responsibility is to not be alienated.==== Impact Calc: a) The aff is based on how expression of the will is distanced from the self, i.e. whether or not subjects in general are in structures where they are able to appropriate, not what it is people want to appropriate b) Alienation is non consequentialist, it’s about our relationship to the external and self. There is no empirical set of consequences where you are guaranteed to be non-alienated, so you can’t look at consequences to determine alienation; rather, you have to look at structures.ContentionPlanResolved: A just government ought to recognize an unconditional right of workers to strike. I defend all strikes including secondary strikes and boycotts, and not allowing employers to replace workers to strike. I’ll clarify and spec anything to a reasonable extent in CX to avoid friv theory debates.Offense~1~ Without strikes, workers are powerless against the government and employers, and feel distanced from their labor, disrespecting their subjectivity. Strikes enable workers to feel empowered as a unit, to appropriate their will and ideas of labor onto their own labor, and generally appropriate their ideas onto society, all resisting alienation LeninLenin, Vladimir Ilyich. "Lenin: On Strikes." Marxists, 1924, www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1899/dec/strikes.htm. AND , from the yoke of government officials and from the yoke of capital. ~2~ The strike symbolizes worker power against force from the state and enables the masses to appropriate their ideas onto the state – removing it alienates the worker by intrinsically condemning this struggle, PalmeDutt, R. Palme. "The Meaning of the General Strike." Marxists, 21 June 1926, www.marxists.org/archive/dutt/pamphlets/strike.htm. AND aim.

ND21 - AC - Microwork v2Tournament: Glenbrooks | Round: 5 | Opponent: Coppell HA | Judge: Wilson, Avery ND21 – AC – Microwork1AC – KPart 1 – The Capitalist InfosphereCapitalism has evolved. In the infosphere, workers are no longer hired, but bought as packets of time, disconnected from any collectivity and without labor relations. No longer people, they are machines to the capitalist system. Only through an existential continuity of the comrade is solvency possible, Berardi 11:Franco Berardi, "After The Future," 2011 ~philosopher~ LHP AB AND continuity, we lack the conditions for cellularized bodies to become a community. Only the collective can control the subjectivity and power necessary to have existential continuity and solve cap. This is contrary to capitalist logic, which suppresses the crowd in favor of individualism. Dean 16:Jodl Dean, "Crowds and Party" 2016 LHP AV AND intense: the crowd expresses the paradoxical power of the people as subject. Capitalism is a death cult and the apocalypse is already happening. Without an unshakable commitment to the total and complete rejection of the fetishization capitalist value, we will all die like the dinosaurs, Allinson 21Allinson, J. (2021). The tragedy of the worker: towards the proletarocene. Verso Books. pg 8-17 AND of ‘adaptation’ has become the ideology of capitalism’s triumph over all life. Part 2 – MicroworkMicrowork preys on the marginalized – individuals label data and do scattered freelance tasks key to the existence of the wealthy tech companies responsible for their displacement under a brutal capitalist system – Jones 21,Jones, Phil. (Phil Jones is a researcher for the think tank Autonomy. He regularly writes for publications such as the London Review of Books, the Guardian, the New Statesman and Novara Media). Work Without the Worker: Labour in the Age of Platform Capitalism. Verso Books, 2021. LHP AB AND to search for another task, workers constantly oscillate between the two states. Micro and platform workers striking would crush big tech’s power over the masses – however, companies, aided by current national structures, stifle any opportunity for this, Jones 2Jones, Phil. (Phil Jones is a researcher for the think tank Autonomy. He regularly writes for publications such as the London Review of Books, the Guardian, the New Statesman and Novara Media). Work Without the Worker: Labour in the Age of Platform Capitalism. Verso Books, 2021. LHP AB AND a nascent digital militancy into a proper movement still remains to be seen. Platform and micro-work functions to evade legal protections by situating workers in a third zone of sub-employment as neither workers nor non-workers. All future labor rights including striking depend on the firm classification of micro-work as work.Thus, the plan: A just government ought to recognize the unconditional right of platform and micro-workers to strike. This is the only way to firmly assert their status as workers rather than fragmented surplus populations, raising their class consciousness along with providing tools for resistance Leterme and AnneDufresne, Anne, and Cédric Leterme.

The fact of an end should not forestall beginning. Thus, the role of the ballot is promoting the politics of the comrade – a new relation towards an emancipatory future. This is a pre-fiat methodological resistance strategy that applies to debate.Independently:~1~ Forms of fragmented politics completely cedes the political to capitalism. Engagement in under common communication is too individualized and resists collective and concrete change. This constitutes enjoyment of melancholic pleasures of being distanced and accommodated to the real world, and as a result remains stuck in parasitic oppression without change. Dean 13:"Communist Desire", Jodi Dean, , 2013, LHP AM AND as they capture us in activities that feel productive, important, radical. 2~ The only way to make radical change is through a process of finding a target and building a movement – targeted demands are key, Malm 21:Malm, Andreas.

Takes out calc indicts because they’re empirically denied.~3~ Degrees of wrongness – only consequences can explain why some actions are better or worse than others – breaking a promise to take someone to lunch isn’t as bad as breaking a promise to take a dying person to the hospital but only the consequences of breaking it can explain why, so all ethical theories collapse to util and other ethical theories are irresolvable/unweighable.~4~ No intent-foresight distinction—if we foresee a consequence, then it becomes part of our deliberation which makes it intrinsic to our action since we intend it to happen.~5~ Topic lit – most articles are written through the lens of util since they’re crafted for policymakers and the general public to understand who take consequences to be important, not philosophy majors.
