+====A~~ Justifying a normative claim requires adherence to the norm of the constitutive rules of the activity. Answering the question of why an agent ought to take an action is impossible without practice rules since each link can be taken out with a "why" question-proving the aff framework collapses to infinite regress. Constitutivism solves because the answer to the question can just refer to the aim of the activity.==== |

|
23 |
+====Next, rational reflection requires that the maxims we act upon be universalizable. Any reasoner would know that two plus two equals four because there is no a priori distinction between agents so norms must be universally valid. And- willing coercion is a contradiction in conception because you extend your own freedom while simultaneously undermining your ability to act in the first place.==== |

+====Only freedom violations intrinsic to the structure of the action are relevant as in free speech causes X is insufficient. A) Freedom is a property of agency, not a consequence. Adding two circles doesn't make anything more circular than it was before, just like two humans aren't more free than one human.

+Any kind of balancing test that determines whether speech may be constitutionally regulated poses serious challenges to foundational First Amendment principles. The very act of balancing tends to be both subjective and indeterminate - it is difficult to quantify the relevant harms and benefits, and it is equally difficult to sensibly weigh them against one another. In the context of the First Amendment, balancing has the potential to undermine strong free speech protections and our neutral principles underlying the First Amendment. Courts should thus avoid determining whether balancing harms caused by speech against the harms to speech can regulate speech. |
