The dream of security produces apocalypse– constructions of existential risk produce the annihilation they are meant to escape
Peter Coviello, Prof. of English @ Bowdoin, 2k Queer Frontiers, p. 39-40
Perhaps. But to claim that American culture is at present decisively postnuclear is not to say that the world we inhabit is in any way postapocalyptic. Apocalypse, as I began by saying, changed-it did not go away. And here I want to hazard my second assertion: if, in the nuclear age of yesteryear, apocalypse signified an event threatening everyone and everything with (in Jacques Derrida’s suitably menacing phrase) "remainderless and a-symbolic destruction," then in the postnuclear world apocalypse is an affair whose parameters are definitively local. In shape and in substance, apocalypse is defined now by the affliction it brings somewhere else, always to an "other" people whose very presence might then be written as a kind of dangerous contagion, threatening the safety and prosperity of a cherished "general population." This fact seems to me to stand behind Susan Sontag's incisive observation, from 1989, that, 'Apocalypse is now a long-running serial: not 'Apocalypse Now' but 'Apocalypse from Now On."" The decisive point here in the perpetuation of the threat of apocalypse (the point Sontag goes on, at length, to miss) is that apocalypse is ever present because, as an element in a vast economy of power, it is ever useful. That is, through the perpetual threat of destruction-through the constant reproduction of the figure of apocalypse-agencies of power ensure their authority to act on and through the bodies of a particular population. No one turns this point more persuasively than Michel Foucault, who in the final chapter of his first volume of The History of Sexuality addresses himself to the problem of a power that is less repressive than productive, less life-threatening than, in his words, "life-administering." Power, he contends, "exerts a positive influence on life land, endeavors to administer, optimize, and multiply it, subjecting it to precise controls and comprehensive regulations?' In his brief comments on what he calls "the atomic situation;' however, Foucault insists as well that the productiveness of modern power must not be mistaken for a uniform repudiation of violent or even lethal means. For as "managers of life and survival, of bodies and the race," agencies of modern power presume to act 'on the behalf of the existence of everyone." Whatsoever might be construed as a threat to life and survival in this way serves to authorize any expression of force, no matter how invasive or, indeed, potentially annihilating. "If genocide is indeed the dream of modem power," Foucault writes, "this is not because of a recent return to the ancient right to kill; it is because power is situated and exercised at the level of life, the species, the race, and the large-scale phenomena of population." For a state that would arm itself not with the power to kill its population, but with a more comprehensive power over the patterns and functioning of its collective life, the threat of an apocalyptic demise, nuclear or otherwise, seems a civic initiative that can scarcely be done without.

Tournament: Greenhill Classic | Round: 2 | Opponent: Thomas IB | Judge: Lawrence Zhou
Interpretation: The Affirmative must explicitly specify which country or set of countries implement the plan in the 1AC plantext

Violation: The plan text only states countries which leaves it to interpretation if this means all countries, some countries, some countries in the arctic, all countries in the arctic council, etc.

1. Substantive engagement – allowing the aff to not specify an actor or actors in the plan text allows them to shift out of links to all neg ground in subsequent speeches. I need to know all components of the plan to be able to generate relevant offense. C-X doesn’t work b/c a) it’s either hit-or-miss since tricky debaters dodge around the issue and b) judges don’t flow C-X. otherwise we’re speaking without debating and there’s nothing to separate us from dueling oratory.   It also creates the most valuable long-term skills since we need to learn how to defend our beliefs in any context, like politics. i/l to Role of the ballot: we can discuss best libertory strategies without specificity. 

2_ Advocacy Skills: Spec is key to contextual discussions about indigenous racism. Their interp means indigenous people and people of color will always be white washed and we will never discuss specific solutions→ ie specific problems within specific issues.. Also, Advocacy skills o/w other impacts since there is tons of messed up shit in the world and we need to learn to be better advocates in order to fix them—only skill we take from debate.

No RVI

1. Forces theory – RVI’s center the debate on theory since substance has zero utility, so each speech has an incentive to go solely for theory, which 

A) Destroys substantive education – every round with theory will be ONLY theory – it’s the biggest impact given the massive proliferation of T and solvency advocates theory on this topic

B) Kills aff strategy since going for theory in the 2N makes the 2AR harder since they have to win both theory and the RVI, exacerbating the time skew

C) Kills evaluation of the better debater since the judge’s jurisdiction is applies to the resolution, and theory is only justified when abuse makes that impossible – making every round theory destroys that

Competing interps

1. Reasonability is arbitrary and we don’t know what is “reasonable,” inviting judge intervention or random unjustified thresholds.

2. Reasonability doesn’t require offense to win which makes it different than other arguments in the round for no reason. They need to implicate why theory should be treated different than any arguments. Saying that it comes first doesn’t provide a reason why the responder should be held to a lesser threshold – if anything that means they should be held to a higher threshold because it’s so important.

Dropping the debater is the ultimate punishment since the debater’s greatest incentive is to win – it’s also the only way to deter abusive practices since there’s still strategic incentives to run abuse as a time-suck or in case it isn’t found out – so dropping the argument never solves.
