	1	+====Their framing certainly does not resist capitalism commodification. Despite the best intentions, Difference and identity can and must only be understood from a class-based perspective. This is key to creating a successful movement capable of catalyzing ethical demands at the global level====
	2	+**D'Annibale and McLaren 2004** (Valerie Catamburio, PhD, chairs the Graduate Program in Communication and Social Justice at the University of Windsor, and Peter, professor in the Division of Urban Schooling, Graduate School of Education and Information Studies, UCLA, "The Strategic Centrality of Class in the Politics of "Race" and "Difference"," Cultural Studies = Critical Methodologies, Vol. 3, No. 2, 148-175 (2003))

	8	+====Modern capitalism ensures that Differentiations exist between the ontological worlds of identity politics. These differentiations are central to violence and extermination and necessitate unending war. The alternatives presupposition of ethical equality is a prerequisite to dealing with zones of sacrifice like debate====
	9	+**Balibar, 2001** (Etienne, Emeritus Prof. of Philosophy @ U. of Paris X Nanterre and U. of Cal., Irvine, "Outlines of a Topography of Cruelty: Citizenship and Civility in the Era of Global Violence," Constellations, Vol. 8.1)

	15	+====The performance of the 1AC only serves to prop up capitalism – modern day capitalism is fueled by an emphasis on difference and counter-culture====
	16	+**Frank 97** ~~Thomas Frank, Johnny Can't Dissent: Commodify your dissent, copyright 1997~~
	17	+The patron saints of the countercultural idea are, of course, the Beats,

	22	+====The role of the ballot is to vote for the team whose ethical orientation best catalyzes political organization against Capital – prefer our Role of the Ballot because you have an ethical obligation to assume responsibility for your actions and the millions subjected by global capitalism. Even if the aff take steps against capitalism, it's not enough – they're like the girl who writes "resist capitalism" on their iphone and posts it on their twitter wall – their counterculture becomes a "hip" commodity that's incorporated into the marketplace.====

	25	+====Our ethico-political obligation is to assume responsibility for our actions. Capitalism render's its victims anonymous and ensures that the aff's personal focus never come to terms with the billions of degraded life choices globally ====

	32	+====This debate is about competing methodologies. The question at the end of the debate is whose ethical orientation best catalyzes political organization against Capital. Vote negative to affirm the Communist Hypothesis as a prerequisite to political or personal calculations, which ensure that discussions in debate continue to operate from within a broader framework of capitalistic competition====

	36	+the moment at which we find ourselves in the history of this hypothesis.

	38	+
	39	+====This round is key – every act of discussion must be understood as a point of metaphoric condensation for Communism. Voting negative means the assuming with full ethical force that the battle is already won.====

	46	+====We must have the courage to reinvent and remain faith to the idea of communism. The world of the status quo is not necessary and should be abolished. This radical starting point is good enough to create possibilities for new politics====
