A. Interpretation: the affirmative may only garner offense from the hypothetical enactment of the resolution.
Violation: they don'tOur interp is compatible with them reading _ which solves their _ offense and our offense bc _.
B. Our OffenseThey destroy engagement – predictable stasis ensures research accessibility and negative ground. Even if public policy isn't the best focus for activism, it's crucial for dialogue because it's grounded in consistent reporting and academic work.Two impacts -1) Changing the topic post facto structurally favors the aff by manipulating balance of prep – vote neg because debate is a competitive game that's meaningless without substantive constraints.2) Also key to have well-prepared opponents. Exclusionary rule: They transform debate into a monologue which means their arguments are presumptively false because they haven't been subjected to well researched scrutiny.Their model creates a structural disincentive to substantial research. Failure to defend the actor and mechanism of the resolution allows them to shift their advocacy to the terms most favorable to them– destroys good scholarship.
C. Drop the debater on T – the round is already skewed from the beginning because their advocacy excluded my ability to generate NC offense– letting them sever doesn't solve any of the abuse
Theory is an issue of competing interpretations because reasonability invites arbitrary judge intervention based on preference rather than argumentation and encourages a race to the bottom in which debaters will exploit a judge's tolerance for questionable argumentation. | 2/19/22 |
