Reform is a lie: there is nothing the biopolitical state can’t overcome through vision Schulium
The Capitalist regime has co-opted the way we value things, and look at ethics. It has created a fantasy where nothing but capitalism matters. We must overcome and traverse this ideology. Everything we have come to know is just a fiction set up by this fantasy, framed by those in a position of privilege who force us to make distinct concepts and characteristics of the world to benefit them. Reject this notion of exploitation and join me in putting on the critic ideological lenses and traversing the fantasy.
Slavoj Zizek, researcher at the institute of sociology at the university of Ljubljana, The Plague of Fantasies, 1997. Preface xi-xiii EM In caring for…sight is ideological.
The claim that free speech leads to democratic debate and social progress is a neoliberal myth used to sustain the subjugation of the capitalist elite – the 1ACs faith in the free exchange of ideas displaces a focus on direct action and re-entrenches facets of oppression. Tillett-Saks 13 Andrew Tillett-Saks (Labor organizer and critical activist author for Truth-Out and Counterpunch), Neoliberal Myths, Counterpunch, 11/7/13, http://www.counterpunch.org/2013/11/07/neoliberal-myths/LADI In the wake…always proved necessary.
Discursive framing is backwards—ideology and consumption patterns are determined by material inequalities. Discourse theory cedes politics by reducing radical action to ‘transgressive’ speech acts Tumino ‘8 Stephen Tumino, professor of English at the University of Pittsburgh, "Materiality in Contemporary Cultural Theory," The Red Critique, Fall/Winter 2008, accessed 1/21/10 http://www.redcritique.org/FallWinter2008/materialityincontemporaryculturaltheory.htm
One of the…in the market.
The state isn’t the innocent hero they make it out to be, it’s the dangerous joker that waits in the dark preying on the innocent. As long as action is taken in the context of the state, it’s doomed to maintain the capitalist machine. This is especially true in the context of promoting rights. Even fiat can’t escape the blood thirsty mindset of maximizing economic growth. Evans Tony Evans Department of Politics, University of Southampton, Highfield Citizenship and Human Rights in the Age of Globalization. This interpretation of…materialism of interests."77
This is uniquely bad- affirming the resolution makes the state look like a best friend- the state is able to pull of the façade of caring for its citizenry when in reality its merely using them as a means to acquiring more capital- silences criticism because if the state looks perfect and reformatory then widespread coalitions have no focal points to rally around. This means that the 1AC forecloses the possibility of ever creating an authentic solution to capitalism because we
A) fail to recognize it still pervades our lives and
B) think that those conditions are a good thing. Actions taken within the capitalist system only reproduce and make the system stronger.

US adherence to international law concerning hate speech is key to credibility in international human rights Cohen ‘15 :
Tanya Cohen, "It’s Time To Bring The Hammer Down On Hate Speech In The U.S." Thought Catalog, 5/1/2015 AZ Recent scandals involving right-wing hatemongers like Phil Robertson, Donald Sterling, Bill Maher, and the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity have brought to light one of America’s biggest embarrassments: the fact that America remains the only country in the world without any legal protections against hate speech. In any other country, people like Phil Robertson and Donald Sterling would have been taken before a Human Rights Commission and subsequently fined and/or imprisoned and/or stripped of their right to public comment for making comments that incite hatred and violence against vulnerable minorities. But, in the US, such people are allowed to freely incite hatred and violence against vulnerable minorities with impunity, as the US lacks any legal protections against any forms of hate speech – even the most vile and extreme forms of hate speech remain completely legal in the so-called “land of the free”. Not only is this a violation of the most basic and fundamental human rights principles, but it’s also an explicit violation of legally-binding international human rights conventions. For many decades, human rights groups around the world – from Amnesty International to Human Rights First to the United Nations Human Rights Council – have told the United States that it needs to pass and enforce strong legal protections against hate speech in accordance with its international human rights obligations. As of 2015, the US is the only country in the world where hate speech remains completely legal. This is, in fact, a flagrant violation of international human rights law. The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD) both mandate that all countries outlaw hate speech, including “propaganda for war” and the dissemination of any “ideas based on racial superiority or hatred”. The ICCPR and ICERD are both legally-binding international human rights conventions, and all nations are required to uphold them in the fullest. By failing to prosecute hate speech, the US is explicitly and flippantly violating international human rights law. No other country would be allowed to get away with this, so why would the US? The United Nations has stated many times that international law has absolute authority. This is quite simply not optional. The US is required to outlaw hate speech. No other country would be able to get away with blatantly ignoring international human rights standards, so why should the US be able to? The US is every bit as required to follow international human rights law as the rest of the world is.
