	1	+Arrogantly tying responsibility to some external purpose is playing god and creates violence

	7	+The locating of the object of ones desire as external to the current letter of the law maintains a framework of fantasy that imposes a forced choice and forecloses actual freedom.

	13	+A phantasmic framing leaves us trapped in a tragic quest to reclaim our happiness that necessitates the denial of pleasure and true freedom. The utopian vision of the fantasy will always be unobtainable.

	15	+Desire emerges when drive gets caught in the cobweb of Law/prohibition, in
	16	+AND
	17	+in the very agency of the law which prohibits the access to enjoyment.
	18	+
	19	+My alternative - traverse the fantasy in the context of the resolution by embracing the empty gesture that explicit law represents when it conflicts with the spirit of the law. The perm is impossible as the phantasmic framing underpinning the AC fundamentally disavows any notion of responsibility for subjects.

	21	+Or - to put it another way - the paradoxical role of unwritten rules is
	22	+AND
	23	+closed circular palpitation which finds satisfaction in endlessly repeating the same failed gesture.
	24	+
	25	+This allows us to question the ways in which the unconscious structures our manifestations of desire through our analytic approach allows the formulation of true political praxis. Instead of seeking enjoyment through the other, we must start with internal evaluations
	26	+
	27	+The first ethical imperative is uniquely the domain of psychoanalysis – the K then controls the internal link to the AC’s framing as without the analysis, knowledge is impossible. The ROTJ is to vote for the debater that has the best psychoanalytic methodology that can properly understand the nature of human-constructed reality.

	31	+at the base of all of this lies an ethical imperative for Lacan.

	33	+Any moral stance that doesn’t take into account desire will inevitably fail due to its fantasmic framing of the real.
