JAN FEB Ayer NCTournament: Colleyville Heritage | Round: 4 | Opponent: Lovejoy BP | Judge: Daniel Becker
Burden of the AC is to prove the truth of the resolution. If I prove res is incoherent, then you negate. I Value Morality Thus, ethical judgments are only reflective of our emotional feelings. This means that morality escapes notions of truth and falsity as an unanalyzable concept. Skep flows neg-

JAN FEB Structural Violence NC Colleyville Lay Judge StratTournament: Colleyville Winter Invitational | Round: 2 | Opponent: Churchill MW | Judge: Some Sketchy Judge All forms of moral or correct actions would reject anything that precludes social equality And, structural violence is the root cause of equality loss
Thus the Criterion is Minimizing Poverty I advocate that developing countries will prioritize resource extraction over environment protection and tax those revenues for even income distribution. Moss explains the plan
The negative uniquely solves for corruption and easily distributes resources across- Even the smallest bit of revenue prevents a large amount of poverty. Structural violence and poverty are the largest impacts - it kills more than all forms of war, but we don't notice it because it is Every Day. | 2/1/14 |

MAR APR Reform KTournament: TFA State | Round: 2 | Opponent: North Crowley | Judge: Alex Joyner Copotolosm KrotokDespite their proclamations of radical resistance, the affirmative is trading in the politics of interpassivity, where all their frenetic energy serves as an ideological screen to allow the logic of capital to remain unchallenged, turns caseZizek 02—Professor of Philosophy @ Institute for Sociology, Ljubljana ~Slavoj, "Revolution at the Gates", pg 167-172~ The affirmative’s attempt to solve and help others for their scenarios is only attacking the symptom of capital dispossession. Capitalism will always exist in the world of the affirmative. We must refuse the call for easy reform and dedicate ourselves to the real task of anti-capitalist movement building.Patrick Reinsborough 2003 (has been involved in campaigns for peace, the environment, and social justice for over twenty years. He co-founded the smartMeme strategy 26 training project in 2002 and with his colleague has trained over 3,000 organizers and partnered with over 100 high impact organizations to frame issues, strengthen alliances and win critical campaigns. Patrick was previously the Organizing Director of the Rainforest Action Network where he mobilized thousands of people to confront corporations who destroy the environment and violate human rights. Patrick’s work has incorporated a range of creative tactics including brand busting, cross-cultural alliance building, markets campaigning and nonviolent direct action.

Voting negative is a refusal of the tepid half-measures of the 1AC in favor of clearing the space for a truly just and equitable society.Marcuse, German Philosopher and Professor at Columbia and Harvard, 1969 (Herbert, member of the Frankfurt School, An Essay on Liberation, p. 85-91) *GENDER MODIFIED Thus the role of the ballot is to endorse criticism of dominant power structures such as capitalismRichard Wyn Jones, Professor International Politics @ Aberystwyth University, Security, Strategy, and Critical Theory, p. 155-163 1999 | 3/6/14 |
NOV DEC CLS KTournament: Nov Dec Stuff | Round: 1 | Opponent: Potato | Judge: Potato A) Links? The Affirmative’s rhetoric in the CJS is a discourse of power and hierarchy which frames the law as inevitable and forces us to become slaves to it. ? B) Impact? Fundamental Law rests on assumptions that policy-makers know what is best for society, which means people blindly follow the policymaker. This imposes a system of hierarchy in that societal preferences are those of the policymaker, not the public. This justifies infinite dehumanization. – Turns and Outweighs Case C) Alternative: Note- I may have read different links in different rounds (based off of the AC), but this was the base 1NC shell that I would build off of when writing out the speech. | 12/21/13 |
