JANFEB- Neolib K
Tournament: CPS | Round: 1 | Opponent: Lynbrook YZ | Judge: Karen Qi The claim that free speech leads to democratic debate and social progress is a neoliberal myth – the AFF’s faith in the free exchange of ideas displaces a focus on direct action and re-entrenches multiple forms of oppression. Instead, the alternative is to reject the AFF’s neoliberal framing of speech and direct pedagogy to focus on direct action against oppression.

Tournament: VBT | Round: 1 | Opponent: Lynbrook NS | Judge: Bucket Eckert The 1ACs intellectualization of free speech to problematize the activism of students ignores the real struggles people of color and other minorities face every day. By immediately criticizing marginalized people for their tactics, you give an easy out to discard discussion of the issues they face. Cornett 15 SARAH CORNETT (The editor of the Whitman College student-run weekly newspaper, The Pioneer); Friday, December 04, 2015; “Racism on Campus - Not Free Speech - Is the Real Story: Mainstream Media Are Missing the Mark”; http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/33904-racism-on-campus-not-free-speech-is-the-real-story-mainstream-media-are-missing-the-markBWSWJ As the clip...to stop there."
Their complaints of a “liberal bubble” show the real hypocrisy of “progressive writers”, the only time you care about suppression of speech and ignorance of viewpoints is when minorities are protecting themselves from hateful speech, but ignore ongoing suppression of minority speech by the dominant class. Don’t let them go for solvency when the only people they protect are the powerful. Wright 2/16 Chris Wright (is a doctoral candidate in U.S. labor history, and the author of Notes of an Underground Humanist and Worker Cooperatives and Revolution: History and Possibilities in the United States); JUNE 2, 2016; “Liberal Faux-Outrage on Freedom of Speech”; http://www.counterpunch.org/2016/06/02/liberal-faux-outrage-on-freedom-of-speech/BWSWJ The Kristofs and...be taken seriously.”
Welcome to Victim Blaming 2.0TM, with included self righteousness and claims of moral superiority! The aff’s invocation of free speech is the new trick to avoid ever discussing concrete material claims of racism. The alternative is to end the diversion embodied by the 1AC and confront issues of racism and oppression head on instead of abstracting to higher principles like free speech. Free speech good is non-responsive and just links harder into the K, even if free speech is good, your tactics of using it to deflect real world harms is bad.

NOV DEC- Hypermasculinity K
Tournament: Damus | Round: 3 | Opponent: Nikki Bayat | Judge: Sarah Sherwood A criticism of hyper masculinity is a criticism of autism itself. The extreme male brain theory of autism explains autism as an extreme exaggeration of neurological masculinity, or the extreme male brain, due to increased fetal testosterone. People with autism often behave and act in ways that would be considered hyper masculinity, with a focus on obsessions and systemizations over empathetic concerns. To criticize hyper masculinity is to criticize people with autism like me/one of my teammates. Baron-Cohen

Underview – Delay, Severance and intrinsicness perms are voting issues, they explode aff ground by granting the 1AR access to an infinite number of policy options and kill stable advocacy by letting the aff kick out of all links to disadvantages. Ground is key to fairness because equal access to offense determines access to the ballot. Stable advocacy is key to fairness because I can’t engage his arguments if he keeps changing them. Fairness is a voter- it’s constitutive of any competitive activity and drop the debater- the only way to compensate from the time skew of devastating short arguments is a loss.
