Tournament: any | Round: 1 | Opponent: any | Judge: any
Interpretation:  The aff cannot require the negative to clarify 1AC advocacy during cross ex and/or ask the neg to check theory interps in cross examination 

Interpretation: The aff cannot defend a plan that will not be inherent in ten years.

Interpretation:  The aff must specify and delineate in the text of the AC a roll of the ballot, standard, or metric by which the judge evaluates the round and how to weigh and evaluate offense under it and cannot simply state “Evaluation of energy policy requires a social context.”

Interpretation:  Debaters can only garner offense through the efficacy of critical advocacies and impacts and cannot get offense from initiating or participating in a discussion.

Interpretation: if the aff reads the spike “PIC’s are a voting issue against whole res affs,” they must specify and define what a PIC is in the text of the AC and cannot put the theory argument at the bottom of the case.

Interpretation: The affirmative cannot read the following spikes in conjunction: “Drop neg theory not weighed against the side bias,” “Drop the neg on theory,” and “Only drop the arg on theory for violations out of the AC and recontextualize AC offense under T”. To clarify, each spikes is permissible, but all three in conjunction is not. 

Interpretation: if the negative introduces a role of the ballot of to embrace a pedagogy of world opening, they must specify and define what it means to embrace a pedagogy of world opening and clarify how to weigh and evaluate offense under the role of the ballot with minimally a sentence in their role of the ballot.

Interpretation: The aff cannot require the neg to weigh abuse against presumption or side bias and claim that neg abuse outweighs aff abuse.

Interpretation – the aff must specify which constitutionally protected speech they prohibit.

Interpretation – Evidence that debaters read or statistics that the quote must be cited and still accessible.

Net Benefits:

1. Limits – They destroy limits by allowing any possible aff – the topic is the only predictable point of preparation for both sides and is a key upper limit on the number of positions they can defend. This destroys the dialogical nature of debate, making it one side and robbing debate of any educational value.

   2. Dialogue - Debate is not real life – the integration of Ks into the strategic toolkit of debaters proves that they’re strategic tools just like anything else. Debaters now regularly read non-topical affs in one round and generic policy arguments in another and nobody bats an eye. Let’s not pretend that voting for the millionth K aff will somehow make the difference. Instead, you should view debate as a training ground to equip students with the knowledge and advocacy skills necessary to change the real world when we get there. This means dialogue is key - Debate teaches skills key to collective decision-making – that’s key to address every global problem

The Roll of the ballot is to vote for the debater that best breaks down machines of deviance.
The 1AC invokes a static conception of the good person by establishing a set schema of virtues that define the “normal” subject that defines deviance through difference from the subject. Policing of deviance assumes the existence of a unified, ideal subject. Modern society relies on this concept to restrict individuals from pursuing different ways of being.

   Eckert 16:  Bennett Eckert “Topic Analysis by Bennett Eckert.” Champion Briefs: Jan/Feb 2017. 2016.
   This is potentially the most frustrating word in the topic. Merriam-Webster’s first definition of it is: 1: one or some indiscriminately of whatever kind: a: one or another taken at random ask any man you meet b: every —used to indicate one selected without restriction any child would know that8 It seems, then, that this “any” does mean something like “every” in this instance. However, that would not mean that the resolution is saying that colleges could restrict some, but not every instance of free speech. Rather, the topic intuitively seems to be saying that colleges cannot restrict any free speech; there should be no restrictions on constitutionally protected speech. The implication of this is obvious: plans are not topical. There also seems to be an obvious argument for plans not being allowed on this topic regardless of whether the word “any” was in the topic. If the affirmative were allowed to say “colleges should not restrict some specific instance of constitutionally protected speech”, then they would pick absurd, unbeatable affs. For example, people would read plans like “Public colleges and universities in the United States ought not restrict students’ right to write papers on Kant.” Or “Colleges shouldn’t restrict students’ right to say racism is bad.” All of these would, if the aff could specify one sort of speech, be theoretically defensible plans. However, they are clearly terrible for debate: they would force the negative into an awful position and give them no educational ground to debate about. For this reason, I will focus my discussion in the next two sections on affirmatives that defend the whole resolution.

I value morality.
To value any end, I must value the conditions necessary to will that end – independence is one of those conditions, since end-setting requires I be free from another’s control. Willing means I hold myself to be able to fulfill that end, which requires freedom.  There can be no objection to deny another’s freedom since they possess the same right and that would deny my worth – resolving disputes via unilateral coercion is a contradiction.

First, “public colleges and universities” is a bare plural—i.e. there’s no article or demonstrative in front of public colleges and universities like “the” or “these” indicating which ones the resolution is talking about.
