Their basic frame for politics reconfirms the failures of the Left, turning debate into a Vampires’ Castle where the propagation of guilt and cycles of pseudo-activity overcome meaningful theorizing and political change – this destroys resistance to capitalism.Fisher 13 (Mark Fisher, commissioning editor at Zer0 Books, programme Leader of the MA in Aural and Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths, University of London, lecturer at the University of East London, "Exiting the Vampire Castle," The North Star, November 22, 2013) AND and transform – itself.

To clarify, they may not defend substances that prevent diseases.Violation: They defend ''''''.Medicines treat diseases====Webster ==== Treatment is different than prevention====Pflanzer 20==== AND ways to use patients' own bodies to fight the virus with antibody treatments. Say that there is no definitionDoesn’t say ritual is using treat diseasesPrefer Standards:~1~ Limits – they explode the topic to include tons of substances that prevent disease rather than treat them like soap, medical supplies, or food and make it so there is no unified neg generics. The aff still gets the core of the topic lit: they get medicine, innovation, and global inequality. Explosion of aff ground makes neg prep burden impossible, either killing neg ground or forcing the neg to read generics that barely link, always letting aff win. Force the 1AR to read a definition card with a clear list of what’s included and excluded – otherwise, vote neg since they can’t put a clear limit on the topic. Our interp solves – it establishes a clear bright-line for that gives the neg a chance to predict and prepare for every aff ahead of time. At best, the aff’s extra-T still links to all our offense since they can get extra-T advantages to solve disads and defend whatever they want, magnifying limits.~2~ Precision – not defending the text of the resolution justifies the affirmative doing away with random words in the resolution which a~ means they’re not within the topic which is a voter for jurisdiction since you can only vote affirmative on the resolution and this debate never should have happened, b~ they’re unpredictable and impossible to engage in so we always loseFairness – debate is a competitive activity that requires fairness for objective evaluation. o/w because it’s the only intrinsic part of debate – all other rules can be debated over but rely on some conception of fairness to be justified.Drop the debater – a~ deter future abuse and b~ set better norms for debate.Competing interps –~a~ reasonability is arbitrary and encourages judge intervention since there’s no clear norm~b~ it creates a race to the top where we create the best possible norms for debate.No RVIs –a~ illogical, you don’t win for proving that you meet the burden of being fair, logic outweighs since it’s a prerequisite for evaluating any other argumentb~ RVIs incentivize baiting theory and prepping it out which leads to maximally abusive practices | 9/11/21 |

It applies to medicines:Upward entailment test – spec fails the upward entailment test because saying that nations ought to reduce IPP for one medicine does not entail that those nations ought to reduce IPP for all medicinesAdverb test – adding "usually" to the res doesn’t substantially change its meaning because a reduction is universal and permanentVote neg:Semantics outweigh:T is a constitutive rule of the activity and a basic aff burden – they agreed to debate the topic when they came hereJurisdiction – you can’t vote aff if they haven’t affirmed the resolutionIt’s the only stasis point we know before the round so it controls the internal link to engagement – there’s no way to use ground if debaters aren’t prepared to defend itLimits – there are countless affs accounting for thousands of medicines – unlimited topics incentivize obscure affs that negs won’t have prep on – limits are key to reciprocal prep burden – potential abuse doesn’t justify foregoing the topic and 1AR theory checks PICs. 1~ Aff Limits are worse: a) specification forces the neg to bad pics that don't clash and produce stale debates. b~ infinite prep means that the aff can check back against pics while the neg won't have case-specific offenseNo offense - either PICs are abusive and spikes and theory checks and you don't need spec OR PICs aren't abusive and you don't need spec. Potential abuse doesn't justify aff abuse - just cause the neg couldread PICs or aprioris doesn't mean the aff gets to be abusive themselvesThere are over 20,000 affsFDA 11/18 ~(U.S. Food and Drug Administration, federal agency of the Department of Health and Human Service) "Fact Sheet: FDA at a Glance," 11/18/2020~ JL AND drug products.

Plan Text in a Vacuum is a useless guideline since words are contextually defined based on function – the only basis for determining Topicality should be if the implementation of the Plan as per their 1AC solvency evidence follows the directional meaning of the Topic’s intent – anything else allows the 1AR to re-contextualize what the Plan says forcing the 1NC to predict infinite 1AR spin since they’re not tied to their evidence.3~ Vote neg for limits and neg ground – re-instatement under any infinite number of conditions doubles aff ground – every plan becomes either temporary or permanent – you cherry-pick the best criteria and I must prep every aff while they avoid core topic discussions like reduction-based DAs which decks generics like Pharma Innovation and Bio-Tech.5~ TVA solves – permanently reduce weed patents.6~ Paradigm Issues –a~ Topicality is Drop the Debater – it’s a fundamental baseline for debate-ability.b~ Use Competing Interps – 1~ Topicality is a yes/no question, you can’t be reasonably topical and 2~ Reasonability invites arbitrary judge intervention and a race to the bottom of questionable argumentation.c~ No RVI’s - 1~ Forces the 1NC to go all-in on Theory which kills substance education, 2~ Encourages Baiting since the 1AC will purposely be abusive, and 3~ Illogical – you shouldn’t win for not being abusive.Reject 1AR theory- A~ 7-6 time skew means it’s endlessly aff biased B~ I don’t have a 3nr which allows for endless extrapolation C~ 1AR theory is skewed to the aff because they have a 2ar judge psychology warrant.Infinite abuse claims are wrong- A~ Spikes solve-you can just preempt paradigms in the 1AC B~ Functional limits- 1nc is only 7 minutes long | 9/11/21 |
