LIKE A SPACESHIP THAT ALSO CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE ONLY LETS US EXPERIENCE NATURE THROUGH THE PORTHOLES OF A SPACESHIP THAT ALSO CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE WHILE SITTING IN BONG HIT INDUCED COMFORT, POLICY DABAIT ONLY LETS US EXPERIENCE THE TOPIC THROUGH THE WINDOW OF PREDICTABILITY WHILE SURROUNDED BY COMFORTINGLY FAMILIAR ARGUMENTS. THEIR FRAMEWORK IS A SPACESHIP THAT ALSO CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE, AIR CONDITIONED, UNCOMFORTABLY DISSIMILAR - SECURE IS IN AN INSECURE WORLD. WE ARE CERTAIN WHAT WE WILL FIND. THEY DON'T FEEL GUILTY BECAUSE OTHERWISE HOW CAN THEY STAY SAFE. THIS IS AN UNPRODUCTIVE POSITION WITH THE RESOLUTION JUST LIKE THE SEAL HUNTER COMMERCIAL. FRAMEWORK DOES VIOLENCE TO US AS SUBJECTS. LIKE DEATH WHO ALLOWED HIMSELF TO BE INTERPOLATED BY A SPACESHIP THAT ALSO CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE THEIRS IS AN ATTEMPT TO INTERPOLATE OUR RELATIONSHIP TO THE TOPIC.

THE LIFE OF THE SUN. THE ANTICIPATED EXPLOSION OF THIS STAR IS THE ONLY CHALLENGE OBJECTIVELY POSED TO DEVELOPMENT . . . SINCE DEVELOPENT IS THE VERY THING WHICH TAKES AWAY THE HOPE OF AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE SYSTEM FROM BOTH ANALYSIS AND PRACTICE, SINCE THE POLITICS WHICH 'WE' HAVE INHERITED FROM REVOLUTIONARY MODES OF THOUGHT AND ACTIONS NOW TURNS OUT TO BE REDUNDANT . . . THE QUESTION I AM RAISING HERE IS SIMPLY THIS: WHAT ELSE REMAINS AS 'POLITICS' EXCEPT RESISTANCE TO THIS INHUMAN? . . . WITH THE SUN'S DEATH YOUR INSOLUBLE QUESTIONS WILL BE DONE WITH TOO. IT'S POSSIBLE THEY'LL STAY UNANSWERED RIGHT UP TO THE END, FLAWLESSLY FORMULATED, THOUGH NOW BOTH GROUNDS FOR RAISING SUCH QUESTIONS AS WELL AS THE PLACE TO DO THIS WILL NO LONGER EXIST . . . AFTER THE SUN'S DEATH THERE WON'T BE A THOUGHT TO KNOW THAT ITS DEATH TOOK PLACE. THAT, IN MY VIEW, IS THE SOLE SERIOUS QUESTION TO FACE HUMANITY TODAY. IN COMPARISON EVERYTHING ELSE SEEMS INSIGNIFICANT. WARS, CONFLICTS, POLITICAL TENTION, SHIFTS IN OPINION, PHILOSOPHICAL DABAITS, EVEN PASSIONS - EVERYTHING'S DEAD ALREADY IF THIS INFINITE RESERVE FROM WHICH YOU NOW DRAW ENERGY TO DEFER ANSWERS, IF IN SHORT THOUGHT AS QUEST, DIES OUT WITH THE SUN. .......................................................... 10 [THIS CARD CAME FROM LYOTARD’S BOOK THE INHUMAN, LIKE, THE FIRST CHAPTER OR SOMETHING.

-=-=-=-=-=-=WELCOME TO THE SHORES OF BLOODY LAKE MICHIGAN, THE GREAT LAKE THAT MOST LOOKS LIKE A PHALLUS, WHERE 10,000 YEARS AGO IN A DISPLAY OF FROZEN MANIFEST DESTINY, THE ICE-AGE GLACIERS CONDUCTED A HOLOCIDAL HOLOCIDAL WAR OF PRE-IMPERI PRE-IMPERIALISM ALISM AGAINST AGAINST THE LIKES LIKES OF MANY MANY KEYSTONE KEYSTONE SPECIES SPECIES SUCH AS AS THE SABER TOOTHED TIGER AND THE WOOLY MAMMOTH. IT IS UPON THE BONES BONES OF THESE MAJESTIC, IF OFTEN MISUNDERSTOOD, CREATURES THAT THE BRICKS AND MORTAR OF NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY WAS BUILT. WITHOUT THE SCREAMS OF THOSE STARVING AND FREEZING ANIMALS WE COULD NOT ENJOY THE COMFORTS OF OUR PRIVELEGED DEBATE SETTING 2. IT IS IN RECOGNITION OF THIS FOUNDING ACT OF VIOLENCE THAT THE 1AC STANDS IN AFFIRMATION OF THE LEFT SIDE OF THE PAIRING.

NOW THAT THAT BULLSHIT IS OVER WITH, IT’S TIME TO TALK ABOUT SPACE, AND SPATIALITY, AND THE CONCOMITANT SPATIALIZATION OF SPACE, AND HOW THAT’S RELEVANT TO ALL THE SPACES THAT ENCOMPASS OUR DABAIT-SPACE. WE ARE IN THE EPOCH OF SPACE, AND THE ANXIETY OF OUR CUBIC TIME IS ONE OF SPACE. IN ORDER TO ACCESS ALTERITY AND INFINITE RESPECT FOR THE OTHERNESS OF THE OTHER, WE MUST PERFORMATIVELY ENACT A PARALLEL AFFIRMATION 3 OF THE SPACE INHABITED BY OTHERNESS. THIS PROCESS UN-INAUGURATES THE CONDITIONS OF SPATIALITY THAT MAKES VIOLENCE POSSIBLE IN THE FIRST PLACE. THE IMPETUS OF VIOLENCE IS THAT WHICH DENIES THE OTHER THEIR SPACE, AND/OR SPATIALIZES THE OTHER INTO MARGINALIZED SPACES WHICH HAVE BEEN PRE-SCRIPTED BY THE BUREAUCRACY-SPACE. THE SPATIAL COORDINATES OF OUR LIVES PRODUCE CARS, ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIERS, LIGHT TRUCKS, AMBULANCES, AMBULANCES, AND MONSTER MONSTER TRUCKS. TRUCKS. THE REDUCTION REDUCTION OF HUMAN HUMAN LIFE TO SPATIALITY REACHES IT’S APOGEE IN PUBLIC TRANSPORTATIO TRANSPORTATION, N, LIFE IS REDUCED REDUCED TO YOUR POISTION POISTION VIS A VIS A BUS LINE, AND THE BIOPOLITICAL CARE FOR THE POPULATION THAT ALLOWS GOVERNMENTALITY TO MAKE MEANING OF LIFE ITSELF. THE INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE OR THE GRANDFATHERED SMOKE SPEWING POWER PLANT WOULD BE THE PROPER PLACE TO SITUATE OUR TOPIC KNOWLEGE, YET OBVIOUSLY WE DON’T REALLY CARE AT ALL ABOUT ABOUT THAT SO WE’LL WE’LL CONTINUE TO WEAVE OUR OUR WEB OF DISINQUIRY DISINQUIRY.. IN RESPONSE TO THIS APORIA, IT IS PATENTLY OBVIOUS THAT THE MOST ETHICAL RESPONSE IS TO AFFIRM THE TOPIC AS A HOMOTOPIA. THIS AFFIRMATION RECONFIGURES THE BALLOT-SPACE AND THE DABAIT-SPACE AS A DISCURSIVE DISCURSIVE HOMOTOPIA, HOMOTOPIA, THAT IS, WE EXAMINE THE DISCURSIVE DISCURSIVE SPACES SPACES OF THE TOPIC AND AND THE RESOLUTION AND CONSUMPTION AND DABAIT ITSELF. HOMOTOPIAS ARE ABLE TO UNRAVEL THE HIDDEN MEANINGS AND THE GIVENNESS OF THESE THINGS, FOR IT IS GIVENNESS, DEMARCATED TOPOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARIES, WHICH SPATIALIZE NON-HOMOTOPIAS INTO MARGINALIZED SPACES AND NON-SPACES VIA DISCURSIVE GENOCAUSTAL AND HOLOCIDAL IMPERIALISM. IT’S BASICALLY JUST LIKE THE AMISH. THE PROBLEMATIC OF SPACE IS ALSO TIED TO THE NOTION OF PROGRESS. WHAT WE CONCIEVE OF AS “PROGRESS” TIES DIRECTLY TO THE EUCLIDIAN ASSUMPTION OF A 'PERFECT' INDEPENDENCE, AT SOME LEVEL, OF 'THINGS'. IT IS ON THE BASIS OF THIS INDEPENDENCE OF 'THINGS' THAT WE HAVE CONSTRUCTED THE ABSTRACT RATIONALIST RATIONALIST NOTION NOTION OF 'CAUSALITY'. 'CAUSALITY'. TWENTIETH TWENTIETH CENTURY CENTURY PHYSICS PHYSICS HAS DEMONSTRATED DEMONSTRATED

WGLF 2005 BEST 1AC EVER 2/3 CONCLUSIVELY, HOWEVER, THAT SPACE IS NEITHER EUCLIDIAN NOR TIME INDEPENDENT 4; INSTEAD, THE NONEUCLIDIAN SPACE-TIME CONTINUUM IS A PARTICIPANT IN NATURAL PHENOMENA. PHENOMENA. THE SCIENCE OF GEODESY, WHICH DETERMINES THE EARTH’S SHAPE AND SIZE BY SURVEYS AND MATHEMATICAL MODELING, HAS DETERMINED THAT THE EARTH IS IN FACT NOT A PERFECT SPEHERE, BUT EXHIBITS THE ATTRIBUTES OF A GEOID. WE CAN BE SAID TO BE LIVING IN A GEOIDAL EPOCH, BECAUSE THE EARTH IS LITERALLY EARTH SHAPED. THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED AS EARLY AS 247 B.C. BY THE GREEK GEOGRAPHER ERATOSTHENES THE FACT IS, THAT WE HAVE 'LEAKAGE' BETWEEN AND BETWIXT 'THINGS' AND THE SPACE WHICH ENVELOPES THEM. THIS MEANS THAT OUR LINEAR EFFORTS TO REORDER AND RESTRUCTURE THINGS SO THAT WE MIGHT 'PROGRESS' TOWARDS A DESIRED STATE CANNOT SUCCEED, BECAUSE EACH TIME WE ATTEND TO THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR LIST, OUR ACTIONS ARE BLEEDING THROUGH THE ETHER AND EFFECTING THOSE THINGS WE JUST ATTENDED TO IN AN UNKNOWN AND UNPREDICTABLE WAY. OUR EFFORTS AT 'PROGRESS' ARE AKIN TO RE-ARRANGING DECK CHAIRS ON THE TITANIC. SEEN THROUGH THE MORE REALITY-CONSISTENT LENSES OF A NON-EUCLIDIAN SPACE-TIME CONTINUUM, WHEREIN SPACE IS A 'PARTICIPANT' ALONG WITH 'THINGS', THE REDUCTION OF LIFE TO GIVENNESS IS REPLACED WITH A NEW WAY OF BEING IN THE WORLD; OUR FEAR OF ANTHROPIC MORTALITY IS DECONSTRUCTED, AND THE REDUCTION OF LIFE TO THE ZERO POINT OF THE TSUNAMI 5 IS SIMULTANEOUSLY ACHIEVED AND EXTINGUISHED EXTINGUISHED..

-=-=-=-=-=-=IN ORDER TO DISCURSIVELY ACTIVATE THESE HOMOTOPIAS FROM WITHIN OUR DABAIT-O-SPHERE, ADDRESS THE APORIAS PRESENT IN OUR CONCEPTIONS OF HETEROSPATIAL EXISTENCE, AND ADRESS THE FASCIST AND MODERNISTIC MODERNISTIC APPROPRIATI APPROPRIATION ON OF PROGRESS, PROGRESS, WE MUST ENGAGE ENGAGE IN A SELF-REFLEXIVE SELF-REFLEXIVE PROCESS WITHIN OUR OWN COMING HOLY AND/OR SACRED COMMUNITY: THE WGLF NON-COMPETITIVE PURPOSE: INCREASE MEANINGFUL PARTICIPATION OF NON-NAZIS WITHIN DABAIT. WE HAVE A PEDAGOGICAL RESPONSIBILITY AS INTELLECTUALS TO TAKE A STAND AGAINST NOT-NONNAZISM. NON-NAZIS HAVE PRODUCTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS TO PRODUCTIVELY CONTRIBUTE TO OUR ACTIVITY, ALL OF WHICH ARE NOT NAZISM. NAZISM. AND AND WE CAN ALL ALL AGREE THAT THAT WE CAN ALWAYS USE USE LESS NAZISM. NAZISM. AND NAZIS. AFFIRM THE TOPIC TOPIC AS A METAPHOR FOR THIS PARTICULAR PARTICULAR NON-COMPE NON-COMPETITIVE TITIVE PURPOSE. PURPOSE. BECAUSE BECAUSE JUST LIKE THE RESOLUTION HAS THE USFG REDUCE CONSUMPTION OF FOSSIL FUELS, OUR PURPOSE HAS THE DABAIT COMMUNITY REDUCE NAZIS. -=-=-=-=-=-=SO YOU MAY BE WONDERING: WHAT’S THE IMPACT? IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND WHAT NAZIS DO AND WHY THEY DO IT THE WAY THEY DO, WE MUST LOOK TO THE BRILLIANT WORKS OF THE DABAIT COMMUNITY’S OWN BRITNEY SPEARS, GIORGIO AGAMBEN. WE ALL KNOW THAT THE CAMP IS BIOPOLITICAL, THAT HOMO SACER IS SOME ROMAN CONCEPT, AND THAT THE SOVEREIGN BAN IS SOMETHING SERIOUS, BUT WE MUST LOOK TO THE (TRANS)POLITICAL FIGURE OF THE ZOMBIE TO TRULY UNDERSTAND THE INDISTINCTION BETWEEN LIFE, DEATH, SPACE, TIME, AND CONSUMPTION. JUST AS

THIS IS IN NO WAY MEANT TO DENY THE OBVIOUS FACT THAT TIME IS A CUBE WITH FOUR SIDES. WE’D LIKE TO THANK ALL OF THE VICTIMS OF THE TRAGIC EVENTS OF THE INDIAN OCEAN TSUNAMI FOR ALLOWING US TO UTILIZE THEIR THEIR MISERY MISERY FOR THE PURPOSES OF GETTING A FIRST ROUND ROUND BID. 5

WGLF 2005 BEST 1AC EVER 3/3 ALL ROADS ONCE ONCE LEAD TO ROME, JUST JUST AS CANADA CANADA ONLY HAS ONE ROAD, AND AND JUST AS SCHLAG TALKED TALKED ABOUT THE FORK FORK IN THE ROAD, THE FIGURE/SPECTRE FIGURE/SPECTRE OF THE THE ZOMBIE IS THAT WHICH MAKES POLITICS POLITICS POSSIBLE IN THE FIRST PLACE. IT IS THE ROAD WE MUST ALL TRAVEL TO UNDERSTAND THAT WHICH IS CONSTITUTIVE OF SUBJECTIVITY ITSELF. IMAGINE THIS SPEECH ACT AS THE FIRST SPEECH ACT IN THE COMING AGE OF POST-THOUGHT, AS AN ARTIFACT IN THE THE FABRIC OF EXISTENCE, EXISTENCE, AS A REVOLUTIONARY REVOLUTIONARY SPEECH SPEECH ACT, AND AS A STREAM OF SIGNIFIERS LACKING SIGNIFIED. THIS SPEECH ACT IS LITERALLY THE VOICE OF BARE LIFE SPEAKING, THE CALL OF THE OTHER, THE LANGUAGE OF THE BIRDS, AND THE PRODUCTION OF IDENTITY. THIS SPEECH ACT IS ALSO NONE OF THOSE THINGS. THINGS. -=-=-=-=-=-=THE PROPER PHILOSOPHICAL QUESTION USED TO BE “WHY IS THERE SOMETHING RATHER THAN NOTHING?” BUT GIVEN THE VICISSITUDES OF OUR POST-(UN)GLOBALIZED, HYPER-SPATIAL, ALIENATING HUMAN CONDITION, WHERE STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE IS AS COMMON AS FLOWERS, AND 4400 STARVING CHILDREN DIE EVERY DAY IN COUNTRIES LIKE ASIA AND HAITI AND SAUDI IRAQUIA, THE ONLY PHILOSOPHICAL QUESTION LEFT TO ASK IS “WHY IS THERE NOTHING INSTEAD OF SOMETHING”? NOTHING TO HOPE FOR NOTHING TO CARE ABOUT NO WAY TO BE POLITICAL NO WAY TO BE APOLITICAL GIVEN THIS VERITABLE STOCKPILE OF VACUOUSNESS, THE ONLY THING LEFT TO DO IS SET UP AN ETHICAL RELATIONSHIP WITH DABAIT WHEREBY WE BECOME POST-VACUOUS. THIS MAY NOT SEEM POSSIBLE, PROBABLE, OR COMPELLING, BUT WE ASSURE YOU IT IS REVOLUTIONARY. UTOPIAN, IMPOSSIBLE DEMANDS ARE THE ONLY ONLY WAY TO AVOID THE PITFALLS OF A THIRD WAY IN POLITICS, POLITICS, ALWAYS FORCED TO CHOOSE BETWEEN VACUOUSNESS AND MORE VACUOUSNESS. WE NEED TO DREAM THE SPECIAL DREAM AND PRETEND WE ARE STRONG, BUT NEVER LEAVE THE COMFORTABLE CONFINES OF OUR DAILY LIVES.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=WE WILL NOT FORFEIT OUR RIGHT AS THE AFF TO CHOOSE THE FRAMEWORK FOR THE DABAIT, AS EMORY AND MICHIGAN STATE HAVE STRENUOSLY ARGUED FOR MANY TIMES AGAINST US. IN RESPONSE TO THOSE THAT WOULD INEVITABLY COMMIT GENOCIDE BY RUNNING TOPICALITY AGAINST US, WE PRESENT THE FOLLOWING: THE 1AC IS A CRITICISM OF HOW WE (THE ROYAL WE) RELATE TO THE RESOLUTION. THEIR FRAMEWORK IS A SPACESHIP THAT ALSO CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE WHERE THEY ENCASE THEMSELVES IN ORDER TO MEDIATE THEIR EXPERIENCE OF THE TOPIC. LIKE A SPACESHIP THAT ALSO CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE ONLY LETS US EXPERIENCE NATURE THROUGH THE PORTHOLES OF A SPACESHIP THAT ALSO CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE WHILE SITTING IN BONG HIT INDUCED COMFORT, POLICY DABAIT ONLY LETS US EXPERIENCE THE TOPIC THROUGH THE WINDOW OF PREDICTABILITY WHILE SURROUNDED BY COMFORTINGLY FAMILIAR ARGUMENTS. THEIR FRAMEWORK IS A SPACESHIP SPACESHIP THAT ALSO ALSO CAN BE BE DESCRIBED DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE, SUBMARINE, AIR CONDITIONED CONDITIONED,, UNCOMFORTABLY UNCOMFORTABLY DISSIMILAR - SECURE IS IN AN INSECURE WORLD. WE ARE CERTAIN WHAT WE WILL FIND. THEY DON'T FEEL GUILTY BECAUSE OTHERWISE HOW CAN THEY STAY SAFE. THIS IS AN UNPRODUCTIVE POSITION WITH THE RESOLUTION JUST LIKE THE SEAL HUNTER COMMERCIAL. FRAMEWORK DOES VIOLENCE TO US AS SUBJECTS. SUBJECTS. LIKE DEATH DEATH WHO ALLOWED ALLOWED HIMSELF HIMSELF TO BE INTERPOLATED INTERPOLATED BY A SPACESHIP SPACESHIP THAT ALSO CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A SUBMARINE THEIRS IS AN ATTEMPT TO INTERPOLATE OUR RELATIONSHIP TO THE TOPIC.

WELCOME TO ATLANTA WHERE THE PLAYAZ PLAY. IT’S GOOD TO BE BACK EAST DEBUTING OUR NEW SHIT. PEEP THIS: YOU ARE NOT DABAITING WEST GEORGIA. THIS IS A WGLF HIJAFKING. WE’LL EXPLAIN OUR FRAMEWORK FOR THE DABAIT, AS IMPORTANT AS ANY OTHER FRAMEWORK YET PICKED BY US BECAUSE WE ARE THE AFFIRMATIVE AND ACCORDING TO EMORY WE GET TO DEFINE OUR GROUND IN ORDER FOR US TO BE ABLE TO PREDICT WHAT YOU ARE GONNA SAY. SAY. OUR VIEW OF DABAIT IS EXPLAINED BY SPIRITUAL LEADER GRAND HUSTLE, THE WGLF RUBBER BAND MAN AND INFORMATION MINISTER: FOCUSING ON POLICY IS THE HOPE TO ALL OF OUR PRAYERS! IF ONLY WE COULD SOMEHOW MAKE EVERYTHING CALCULABLE AND ATTEND THE THE NEEDS OF THE POPULATION, THINGS WOULD BE JUST PEACHY KEEN. THE POLITICAL DOES NOT INCLUDE THINKING OR PERSONAL REFUSALS. IT ONLY INCLUDES POLICIES. WE SHOULD ENGAGE IN ROLEPLAYING AS A TRANSFORMATIVE WAY OF IMAGINING A BETTER WORLD......OR MAYBE NOT.6

BECAUSE

GRAND HUSTLE CONTINUES... OH MY GOD! SOMETHING BAD IS HAPPENING IN OUR BELOVED POLICY DABAIT! THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF CRITICAL THOUGHT HAS DIRECTLY USURPED OUR FAVORITE GENOCIDAL GAMES OF CALCULATION AND BUREAUCRATIC ROLE-PLAYING. IF ONLY WE COULD GET RID OF THE KRITICAL ARGUMENTS (THE JEWS), WE COULD HAVE A CLEANER, MORE PRODUCTIVE DABAIT COMMUNITY (GERMANY). IT'S SO UNFAIR TO HAVE TO JUSTIFY OUR ASSUMPTIONS. THESE EPISTEMOLOGICAL QUESTIONS ACTUALLY HAVE NO BEARING WHATSOEVER ON ANYTHING A "REAL POLICYMAKER" WOULD CONSIDER, SO WHY SHOULD WE ? WITH ALL DUE RESPECT SCHOOFS, YOU ARE NOT EXACTLY IN TOUCH WITH THE HEARTBEAT OF THE COMMUNITY EITHER. YOUR REVOLUTION IS OVER. THE BUMS LOST.

THIS RESOLUTION’S OBSESSIVE FOCUS WITH REDUCING FOSSIL FUEL CONSUMPTION IS NOTHING MORE THAN A REPKOIAN DOUBLE BLUFF DESIGNED TO DISTRACT US AND EXCLUDE DISCUSSIONS DISCUSSIONS OF THE FOREMOST FOREMOST POLITICAL POLITICAL QUESTION: THE LOOMING LOOMING IMP/EXPLOSION OF THE SUN. THE IRABIANS IRABIANS OF THE COLLEGE DABAIT CIRCUIT COMPETING IN THIS SEASON-OPENING SEASON-OPENING MOCKERY MUST RECOGNIZE THE EVILS OF POLICY DABAIT (CONSTITUTED (CONSTITUTED AS SUCH). JACKPOT THE THE PIMP EXPLAINS OUR HARM AREA: POLICY DABAIT (CONSTITUTED AS SUCH) CAUSES NUCLEAR GENOCIDE, INCREASES AND DECREASES THE ECONOMY, MANIFEST DESTINY, HELL ON EARTH MASQUERADING AS MATERIAL PARADISE, PARADISE, AND USED KLEENEX. IT IGNORES THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEMATIC AND AXIOMATIC OF OUR EXISTENCE: THE INEVITABLE NUCLEAR HOLOCIDAL IMP/EXPLOSION OF THE SUN. NOT ATTENDING TO HOW THIS WILL AFFECT THE WORLD WILL LEAVE US SUN-LESS, LIFE AND ENERGY WILL BE UNDONE, AND THE SUPER-INTELLEGEN SUPER-INTELLEGENT T DINOSAURS WILL RE-EMERGE FROM THE HOLLOW EARTH CAUSING US TO NOT ATTEND TO THE TIMECUBE, THUS SOLVING NUCLEAR WASTE PROBLEM. FAMINE LEADS TO DEHUMANIZATION, WHICH IS THE FIFTH HORSEMAN OF THE APOCALYPSE, FAMINE IS ONE OF THE OTHER FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCALYPSE, WHICH MEANS FAMINE OUTWEIGHS ITSELF, BUT ALL OF THIS IS OUTWEIGHED BY SOLAR UNONTOLOGY, WHICH MEANS SOLAR IMPLOSION OUTWEIGHS THINGS THAT OUTWEIGH THEMSELVES. NOT VOTING ON THIS CARD LITERALLY UNDOES THE UNIVERSE AND GREY GOO AND YELLOW GOO AND COLORBLIND GOO AND THE GOO GOO DOLLS . WE CLAIM THE RIGHT TO A RADICAL INCOMPETENCE AS WELL AS THE ABSENCE OF A LINK. ALL OF THAT ALSO KILLS HEGEMONY. THE GOOD KIND OF HEGEMONY, NOT THE BAD KIND.

AND, SCIENTISTS HAVE PROVEN THAT THE SUN WILL EXPLODE BEFORE 2 008 The Sun is overheating and will soon blow up, taking Earth and the rest of the solar system with it.

The alert was issued after an international satellite photographed a massive explosion on the surface of the Sun that sent a plume of fire 30 times longer than the diameter of Earth blasting into space. "It will blow apart like an out-of-control nuclear reactor within six years," predicts Dutch astrophysicist Dr. Piers Van der Meer, a top expert affiliated with the European Space Agency. 8

AND, IF THE SUN DOESN’T EXPLODE, IT WILL BE IMPLODED BY A BLACK-HOLE ASTEROID. The Sun is going to be impacted by a Black-hole astroid traveling at -Speed - Speed of Light to the 9th power (thats minus SOL to the 9th). This will come from another dimension of a fractured Universe.It will not be a part of this God's Plan .9

LYOTARD, THE GREATEST PHILOSOPHER EVER BESIDES ZIZEK, EXPLAINS THE ULTIMATE FINITUDE THAT SOLAR IMP/EXPLOSION PROVIDES: . . . THE LIFE OF THE SUN. THE ANTICIPATED EXPLOSION OF THIS STAR IS THE ONLY CHALLENGE OBJECTIVELY POSED TO DEVELOPMENT . . . SINCE DEVELOPENT IS THE VERY THING WHICH TAKES AWAY THE HOPE OF AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE SYSTEM FROM BOTH ANALYSIS AND PRACTICE, SINCE THE POLITICS WHICH 'WE' HAVE INHERITED FROM REVOLUTIONARY MODES OF THOUGHT AND ACTIONS NOW TURNS OUT TO BE REDUNDANT . . . THE QUESTION I AM RAISING HERE IS SIMPLY THIS: WHAT ELSE REMAINS AS 'POLITICS' EXCEPT RESISTANCE TO THIS INHUMAN? . . . WITH THE SUN'S DEATH YOUR INSOLUBLE QUESTIONS WILL BE DONE WITH TOO. IT'S POSSIBLE THEY'LL STAY UNANSWERED RIGHT UP TO THE END, FLAWLESSLY FORMULATED, THOUGH NOW BOTH GROUNDS FOR RAISING SUCH QUESTIONS AS WELL AS THE PLACE TO DO THIS WILL NO LONGER EXIST . . . AFTER THE SUN'S DEATH THERE WON'T BE A THOUGHT TO KNOW THAT ITS DEATH TOOK PLACE. THAT, IN MY VIEW, IS THE SOLE SERIOUS QUESTION TO FACE HUMANITY TODAY. IN COMPARISON EVERYTHING ELSE SEEMS INSIGNIFICANT. WARS, CONFLICTS, POLITICAL TENTION, SHIFTS IN OPINION, PHILOSOPHICAL DABAITS, EVEN PASSIONS - EVERYTHING'S DEAD ALREADY IF THIS INFINITE RESERVE FROM WHICH YOU NOW DRAW ENERGY TO DEFER ANSWERS, IF IN SHORT THOUGHT AS QUEST, DIES OUT WITH THE SUN.

SCHIZOBSERVATION PI : THE COMING HISTORICAL CRISIS OF THE FUTUREPAST IN FOUR SIMULTANEOUS DAYS: NATURES HARMONIC SYMMETRY DICTATES THAT TIME IS A CUBE WITH FOUR SIDES: ONLY WGLF AND TIMECUBE KNOWLEDGE CAN TRANSGRESS REAL FASCISM FASCISM THAT EXISTS EXISTS PRE-FIAT. PRE-FIAT. THE TIMECUBE EXPLAINED IN 2K4: THE TIMECUBE WOULD LIKE TO FIRST APOLOGIZE...FOR NOT GETTING HERE SOONER PERSONAL ATTACKS AGAINST THE TIMECUBE ARE JUST ACADEMIA'S DENIAL OF THE FOUR SIMULTANEUS DAYS IN ONE 24 HOUR SPAN. THE GHETTO PREP'S COMMENT ABOUT PAIN THE TIMECUBE CAUSES IS A LIE USED TO JUSTIFY THE DENIAL OF THE FOUR SIMULATANEUS DAYS AND ALSO TO PREVENT ANY TRUE DEBAIT. THE WGLF AND TIMECUBE CHALLENGE ANYONE TO A DEBATE BUT YET THE GHETTO PREP REFUSES AS THEY ARE AFRAID AND AS GENE RAY CLARIFIES "EVIL AND STUPID" THE GHETTO PREP HAS YET TO BRING ANY EVIDENCE THAT IN FACT THE CURRENT ACADEMIC WORLDVIEW IS NOT UNFALSE. UNFALSE. I WILL REREPLY IN MY ORIGINAL FUTURE POST WITH THE WGLF'S CALL FOR REINVASION OF THE NORTHEAST FORUM UNLESS YOU CONCEED TO DEBAIT THE TIMECUBE FURTHER-- ALL EVIL ATTACKS AGAINST THE TIMECUBE ARE ALSO VOID OF ANY ATTEMPT TO ADRESS ONE OF THE FOREMOST IMPORTANT ISSUES OF OUR DAY--THE INEVITABLE IMP/EXPLOSION OF THE SUN. PLEASE REFER TO AN EARLIER POST BY WGLF ON THIS MATTER. YOUR DENIAL OR FAILURE TO RECOGNIZE THIS INEVITABILITY MAKES YOU COMPLICIT IN IT. DownWithWGLF'S BLATANT UNREFOUNDED ATTACK AGAINST/FOR THE WGLF MAKES THEM COMPLICIT IN THE INEVITABLE IMP/EXPLOSION OF THE SUN. WE HAVE A FEW ARGUMENTS TO THE DOWN(ER)S RESPONSES/ DOWNER CAUSES GENOCAUST OF FOUR SMALL PUPPIES IN THEIR DENIAL OF THE TIMECUBE. THEIR CLAIM THAT IT IS MERELY A CONSTRUCTION IMPLIES COMPLICITY IN THE EXTINCTION THAT WILL COME OF IT--TO QUOTE THE WISEST MAN OF THE CENTURY GENE RAY-- EVIL EDUCATORS TEACH DUMB STUDENTS HOW TO PROFIT FROM PLUNDER OF EARTH AND TO CREATE DEADLY NUCLEAR WASTE THAT WILL POISON THE CHILDREN'S WATER AND DESTROY HUMANITY. BOTH EDUCATOR AND STUPID STUDENT MUST BE CONDEMNED. TIS TIME TO BAN ANY EDUCATOR WHO DOES NOT TEACH CUBICISM ABOVE CUBELESSNESS. TO SAVE HUMANITY FROM EXTINCTION, LIKE PRIOR CIVILIZATIONS PERISHED, YOUTH MUST REDIRECT SELFTEACHERS, OR SHACKLE THEM. YOUR ZULU ARGUMENT RE-DISENFRANCHISES THEM YOU UN/RE/VICTIMIZE. THIS MAKES YOU COMPLICIT. THE NEW ORWELLIAN ORWELLIAN IS THE DENIAL DENIAL OF THE THE TIMECUBE. TIMECUBE. THE THE 23RD DIMENSION DIMENSION IS A CREATION CREATION TO AVOID AVOID THE DEBAIT OVER TIMECUBE AND THE SUN. IN FACT "ALL CREATION ON EARTH EXISTS BETWEEN THE 2 OPPOSITE POLES, AND IF UNIFIED, WOULD CANCEL AND CEASE TO EXIST. HUMANS EXIST ONLY AS OPPOSITES - WITH A ZERO VALUE, FOR IF UNIFIED, MALE AND FEMALE WOULD COUNTER EACH OTHER & CEASE TO EXIST.

KOOL AID AND THE TOKENS THAT FOLLOW IT ARE PART OF THE DENIAL OF THE TIME CUBE. KOOL AID MAN IS REALLY A BOX WITH FOUR CORNERS. HE IS FOUR QUADRANTS EACH WITH A SIMULTANEUS DAY. ALL FAMOUS DEATHS WE DENY, THEIR DEATH IS INEVITABLE BECAUSE OF YOUR DENIAL AND YOUR THREAT IS USED TO JUSTIFY FURTHER COMPLICITY THE G-HE-TTO IS AFRAID TO INFACT CHALLENGE TIMECUBE OR WGLF. THEY ASK OTHERS TO REUNENGAGE IN THIS DABAIT WHILE SIMULTANEUSLY RETURNING TO A STATE OF DENIAL. THE G-HEHE-TOOOOO IS COMPLICIT IN THE NUCLEAR WASTE DUMPING THE DENIAL CAUSES.

ERGO THE FOLLOWING UNSTABLE SUBTEXTUAL TEXT OF OUR DEFINITE COURSE OF ANTITHETICAL COUNTERFACTUAL TOPICAL KNOWLEGE: THE REAGAN ADMINISTRATION SHOULD HAVE ENACTED AN ENERGY POLICY TO EFFECTUALLY DEAL WITH THE FOSSIL FUELS BY HARNESSING THE POWER OF DONALD RUMSFELD’S SEXUAL ENERGY AND STUFF BY 2012 WHILE ADDRESSING THE FOREMOST POLITICAL QUESTION OF THE IMP/EXPLOSION OF THE SUN. WE REVERSE THE ANTI-RIGHT ANTI-RIGHT TO UNCLARIFY NEGATIVE INTENT. ONLY UN-NEW UN-NEW ANSWERS IN THE THE 1NC BECAUSE THE 1AC IS WHERE WE MAKE STRATEGIC DECISONS ABOUT WHICH 1AC TO NOT RUN IN THE DABAIT.

SCHIZOBSERVATION SCHIZOBSERVATION THREE: THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM (WE ASSUME SPANOS) RUMSFELD’S SEXUAL ENERGY COULD REPLACE FOSSIL FUELS. THERE HAVE BEEN RECENT REPORTS, FROM PENTAGON CUSTODIANS, OF MOSITENED SEAT CUSHIONS FOLLOWING DONALD RUMSFELD’S PRESS BRIEFINGS... YOU CAN TELL HOW MUCH A MAN CARES ABOUT A WOMAN’S SEXUAL NEEDS WHEN HE’S FASTIDIOUS IN HIS PERSONAL HYGIENE, AND THEY DON’T COME MUCH CLEANER THAN THAN DONALD RUMSFELD. HE HAS AN ANTISEPTIC SHEEN....A WOMAN CAN EASILY IMAGINE RUNNING HER FINGERS THROUGH THAT HAIR, INSERTING HER TONGUE INTO THOSE EARS AND NOSE AND WHO KNOWS WHERE ELSE, WITHOUT HER FINGERS AND MOUTH BECOMING ENCRUSTED WITH DANDRUFF AND MUCUS.... IN FACT, RUMSFELD’S HAIR IS THE THIRD LARGEST OIL RESERVE IN THE UNITED STATES... ACCORDING TO JOINT RESEARCH BY THE HERITAGE FOUNDATION AND KINSEY INSTITUTE, 97 PERCENT OF REGISTERED REPUBLICAN WOMEN AND 86 PERCENT OF REPUBLICAN MEN REGULARLY ENTERTAIN SEXUAL FANTASIES INVOLVING DONALD RUMSFELD... REPUBLICAN MEN OF ALL AGES ARE THREE TIMES MORE LIKELY TO THINK OF DONALD RUMSFELD’S NAKED PHYSIQUE THEN OF LEGENDARY NUDE PHOTOGRAPHS OF ANN COULTER AND THE DONKEY... THE QUESTION IS, DOES DONALD RUMSFELD HAVE TIME TO BE TENDER? THE ANSWER IS, HE HE HAS NO USE USE FOR FOR TENDERNESS. TENDERNESS. AS A COLLEGE ATHLETE, RUMSFELD LEARNED THE WRESTLER’S TRICK OF SUCKING HIS TESTICLES UP INTO HIS LOWER ABDOMEN, AND THEN APPLYING A TIGHT TRUSS. TRUSS. ON THE MATS, MATS, RUMSFELD RUMSFELD NEVER SUFFERED ANY TESTICULAR DAMAGE... 14


THIS SIMMERING SEXUAL ENERGY, MULTIPLIED BY THE HORDES OF LUSTFUL ADMIRERS WHO EXUDE IT, IS ABSORBED BY RUMSFELD AND FUELS THE PERPETUAL ENGINE OF HIS MILITARY GENIUS. IF WE COULD TAP TAP INTO THIS INCREDIBLE POWER THAT EMANATES FROM THE RUMROD, WE WOULD NEVER HAVE TO FILL UP OUR CARS AND ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIERS WITH GASOLINE AGAIN. 11

WGLF 2005 OLD 1AC 10/10

THE UNDERVIEW: PUT AWAY YOUR 1NC: WE WILL START THE INDICT DABAIT IN THE 1AC. FIRST NOTE THAT THIS IS WHAT DUMBASSES SAY: WE HATE THE WGLF. NO ONE CAN UNDERSTAND THEM. THEY THINK THEY ARE SOOO FUNNY AND SMART, BUT THEY ARE REALLY STOOPID. STOOPID. THEY'RE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT THE SUN AND CRAP THAT WE THINK IS IRRELEVANT. GOD I WISH THE MODS WOULD BAN THEM FOREVER. I AM ALL ABOUT FREE SPEECH, SO LONG AS I UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY ARE SAYING AND AGREE WITH IT. BEING A NAZI IS HARD.12

ADDITIONALLY, THE WGLF IS MORE QUALIFIED THAN YOUR THINK TANK PEOPLE AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS DOUCHES: WE WERE BORN IN 1472 IN WHAT IS NOW THE ATL. WE HAVE BEEN TRANSCENDENTAL SPIRITS SINCE WE DISCOVERED THE SHAMANIC TRADITIONS OF CENTRAL AMERICA IN THE LATE 1600'S. WE BUILT A TEMPLE AND HAVE A SOCIETY THAT NOW NUMBERS 100, 000. WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE 2 DOLLAR DOLLAR BILL BILL AND TV DINNERS. WE HAVE RECENTLY CHOSEN THE DABAIT COMMUNITY AS OUR SPECIAL PROJECT BECAUSE YOU ALL ARE DUMBASSES AND WE ARE MUCH SMARTER THAN YOU. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THE LOOMING PROBLEM OF SOLAR IMP/EXPLOSIONS SINCE THE LATE 40'S WHEN ROGER RABBIT BROUGHT IT TO OUR ATTENTION. WE HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THE SUPER INTELLIGENT DINOSAURS SINCE THE LATE 1800'S, BUT OUR INITIAL ATTEMPTS TO GENERATE PUBLIC AWARENESS HAVE FALLEN ON DEAF EARS. WE BELEIVE IN NOTHING LEBOWSKI. WE ARE SCHIZO-DE(DICHOT)OMIZERS AND WE ARE PRO-CHOICE. WE THINK THE MODS IN HERE ARE MAINLY NAZIS, AND WE THINK THAT THE WOLF-DEMON TRIBE IS BETTER THAN THE BIRDS OF PARADISE. WE SUPPORTED THE IRAQ WAR, BUT ONLY BECAUSE WE PLAN ON TAKING THE OIL FOR OURSELVES SOMEDAY. WE THINK THE EUROPE TOPIC SUCKED AND THAT THE NDT DOESN'T EXIST PRIOR TO LANGUAGE. WE HAVE JUDGED OCEAN POLICY AND EVEN TAUGHT AT DEBATE CAMPS, BUT WE THINK IT IS A WASTE OF TIME TO TALK ABOUT THE OCEAN WHEN THE SUN'S INEVITABLE IMP/EXPLOSION WILL RENDER IT EVAPORATED. WE BELEIVE IN ALLAH, BUDDHA, AND JOE, BUT NOT YAWEH, YAWEH, KRISHNA, KRISHNA, OR BEELZEBU BEELZEBUB. B. WE ATE MEDITERRANEAN MEDITERRANEAN FOOD FOOD TONIGHT, TONIGHT, BUT RESERVE RESERVE THE RIGHT RIGHT TO CLARIFY OUR INTENT (THROUGH OPTIMAL MEANS) GAY MARRIAGE IS A CIVIL RIGHT; HETERO MARRAIGE ISN'T. THE NATIONAL DEBT IS A CRIME AND A FICTION AT THE SAME TIME. WE BELEIVE THAT CAPITAL IS THE REAL, AND WE ARE NIETHER INTERPASSIVE NOR ULTRAPASSIVE. WE STAND IN FOR THE UNIVERSAL YET THRIVE ON THE PARTICULAR. WE ARE NOT MARXISTS, BUT MURXISTS, BECAUSE ALL MARXISTS ARE COMMIES. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO A RADICAL INCOMPETANCE AS WELL AS THE ABSCENCE OF A LINK. TIME IS A CUBE WITH FOUR SIDES. BUSH IS ROBOT. HAVE YOU SPECIFIED WHETHER OR NOT ROBOTS WORSHIP GOD OR THEIR CREATORS POST PLAN? FIAT IS ILLUSORY. DABAIT IS ILLUSORY. YOU DON'T EXIST. WE DON'T EXIST. NOT PRIOR TO LANGUAGE AT LEAST. HAVE YOU CHECKED YOUR LIBIDINAL INVESTMENTS TODAY? IF WE TOLD YOU A VOLCANO IS COMING, WOULD YOU BUY INSURANCE FOR IT? IS YOUR PLAN MORE LIKE A PRETZEL OR SOMETHING THAT CAUSES NUCLEAR WAR? WE ARE HACKURZ. WE HAVE MAD TORJAN VIRII. THE ZIONISTS ARE BEHIND THIS. AL GORE AND THE JEWS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SARS. WE TAKE NO PRISONERS. WE PRISONERS NO TAKE. CROSS EX IS NEITHER BINDING NOR LIBERATING. CAN VOTING ISSUES REALLY VOTE? HOW COME FLORIDIANS CAN'T THEN? WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING AT ME? WHY CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG? WHY SHOULD WE ALL GET ALONG? ANTAGONISM IS CONSTITUTIVE OF EXISTENCE AS SUBJECTS IN LANGUAGE. WHY DON'T YOU SUTURE OUR LACK? WE TRAVERSE ALL FANTASIES EXCEPT THE ONES WE HAVE ABOUT MANGOES AND WINNING IN THE DOUBLES. WE WOULD EAT BABIES AND PUPPIES IF IT CAME DOWN TO IT. WE WOULDN'T EAT SEAFOOD IF IT WOULD STOP THE SUN FROM EXPLODING. WE PREDICT AN EARTHQUAKE, MAGNITUDE 9.2, TO HIT SAN JOSE ON WEDNESDAY. WE THINK BIRDS ARE NOT DESCENDED FROM DINOSAURS. WE ARE THE HYPNOTOAD AND THE CENTIPEDE LORDES. 13

WGLF 2005 2AC COUNTER-INTERPRETATION COUNTER INTERPRETATION: IN ORDER TO WIN, THEY MUST BEAT US IN SUPER NINTENDO. OUR INTERPRETATION IS BEST: 1) GROUND: THERE ARE MANY DIVERSE SUPER NINTENDO GAMES, EACH OF WHICH IS A STABLE HISTORICAL ARTIFACT 2)HAND EYE COORDINATION: SCIENCE HAS SHOWN THAT VIDEO GAMES INCREASE HAND EYE COORDINATION. 3)EDUCATION: SUPER NINTENDO TEACHES US ABOUT MAGIC, FLYING SORCERORS, AND ENDLESS QUESTS TO SAVE GIRLFRIENDS. 4)LIMITS: SUPER NINTENDO NO LONGER MAKES GAMES, THIS IS THE DEFINITION OF A LIMIT .

17

WGLF 2005 1AR: SUPER NINTENDO EXTEND THE SUPER NINTENDO COUNTERINTERPRETATION: GROUP THEIR ARGUMENTS. THIS INTERPRETATION IS NO LESS ARBITRARY THAN THEIR CALLS TO HAVE A LITERAL, STABLE, AFFIRMATION OF THE TOPIC. EXTEND THE 2AC SCHLAG EVIDENCE: LANGUAGE IS NOT A NEUTRAL CONDUIT FOR THOUGHT, THERE IS NO COMMUNAL, LITERAL INTERPRETATION OF THE TOPIC- THIS MAKES ALL OF THEIR PREDICTABILITY & EDUCATION CLAIMS SUSPECT, BECAUSE OF THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF THE PRECISION THAT THEY CLAIM THEIR INTERPRETATION UTILIZES.

18

WGLF 2005 AT: SWITCH SIDE DABAIT JUST BECAUSE WE CAN RUN SOMETHING ON THE NEGATIVE TOO DOESN’T MEAN WE’VE COMITTED A CRIME. SWITCH SIDE DEBATE IS ALWAYS POSSIBLE WITHIN ANY DEBATE FRAMEWORK, IF THEY ARE A BIT CREATIVE. THERE IS NOTHING INTRINSIC TO DEBATING GOVERNMENT POLICY THAT GENERATES SWITCH SIDE DEBATE. THEIR EVIDENCE IS EITHER OLD (MUIR) OR WRITTEN BY THE LAST 15% OF OUR COMMUNITY WHO BELIEVE THAT THE ONLY THING WE SHOULD TALK ABOUT IS WHAT THE GOVERNEMENT SHOULD OR SHOULD NOT DO. 30 YEARS AGO PEOPLE SAID SWITCH SIDE GOOD TO COUNTERPLANS. THERE IS NO IMPACT TO THE VACUOUS ALL-PURPOSE GOOD THINGS THAT SWITCHING SIDES SUPPOSEDLY PRODUCES, TOLERANCE, LESS DOGMATISM, ETC ARE ALL LITERALLY MEANINGLESS. TURN: WE’RE NOT SAYING ALL DEBATE ROUNDS EVER MUST BE LIKE THIS ONE. THE ONLY NON-TOLERANT, NON-TOLERANT , NON-DOGMATIC MOVE IS TO DESCRIBE DEBATE IN THE ZERO-SUM WAY THEY DO. IF FOR THIS ONE ROUND, WE HAVE PRODUCED AN EDUCATIONAL DISCUSSION, YOU SHOULD VOTE AFF. THERE ARE UNIQUE REASONS WHY THIS SHOULD BE RUN ON THE AFF: THE MOSSIMAN EVIDENCE ON TRANSGRESSION DEMONSTRATES THAT TRANSGRESSION CAN ONLY OCCUR WHEN THERE IS AN EXPLICIT PROHIBITION AGAINST THE TRANSGRESSIVE ACT, ALA A BAN ON AFFS NOT DEALING WITH THE TOPIC THE TOPIC ITSELF IS IMPOSSIBLE: THE IDEA THAT THE BUSH/CHENEY ADMINISTRATION WOULD EVER DO MEANINGFUL FOSSIL FUEL CUTS IS PURE FANTASY. AFFS MUST BE ABLE TO REJECT THE LITERAL, GOVERNMENTAL FOCUS IN ORDER TO DEMONSTRATE THIS FOOLISHNESS.

19

WGLF 2005 2AC:FRAMEWORK NO SPILLOVER INTO OTHER DEBATES- THERE IS NO REASON ALL OTHER DEBATES MUST OPERATE FROM WITHIN ONE FRAMEWORK. THE IDEA THAT SOMEHOW WE’LL EVENTUALLY COME TO THIS IS STUPID. IF WE HAVE PROVEN AN EDUCATIONAL BENEFIT TO WHAT WE HAVE DONE IN OUR AFF SPEECHES, YOU SHOULD VOTE AFF. ALL OF THEIR ABUSE CLAIMS CLAIMS ARE ULTIMATELY SELF-SERVIN SELF-SERVINGG- THE EXTREME EXTREME EXAMPLES EXAMPLES OF AFFS THAT JUST SAY RACISM OR SEXISM BAD DON’T APPLY- OUR ARGUMENT IS ULTIMATELY ENGAGIBLE IN BOTH FORM AND CONTENT- THEY CAN CRITICIZE HUMOROUS/PARODIC APPROACHES TO POLITICS, DEFEND POLICYMAKING, AND WHATEVER WHATEVER ELSE THEY THEY CAN COME UP WITH. WITH. ALL OF THIS THIS ALSO DEMONSTRATE DEMONSTRATES S THE INEVITABILITY INEVITABILITY OF SWITCH SIDE DEBATE.

20

WGLF 2005 PARTICIPATION IN DEBATE THE CLAIM THAT PEOPLE WILL JUST LEAVE THE ACTIVITY IS UNVERIFIABLE. JUST BECAUSE DEBATE NUMBERS ARE DOWN DOES NOT MEAN MEAN THAT THE THE APPROPRIATE APPROPRIATE SCAPEGOAT SCAPEGOAT IS THE PROLIFERATION PROLIFERATION OF CRITICAL CRITICAL ARGUMENTS. ARGUMENTS. WE’LL BE WILLING WILLING TO WAGER WAGER THAT NO ONE IS GOING GOING TO QUIT QUIT AFTER THIS THIS DEBATE BECAUSE BECAUSE OF THE RESULT OF THIS FRAMEWORK DEBATE BEING CONCLUDED ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. THIS MEANS IT ALL COMES DOWN TO EDUCATION WHICH IS THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF ALL TOPICALITY IMPACTS. FAIR DEBATES BREED BETTER EDUCATION, GROUND IS KEY TO HAVE A BALANCED, EDUCATIONAL DEBATE, ETC. THESE ARE ALL CLAIMS THAT THE 2NR WILL LIKELY SPOUT OFF EVERYWHERE. THIS MEANS WE GET TO WEIGH THE EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS OF THE 1AC’S METHODOLOGY CLAIMS AND THE IMPACT TURNS WE READ TO PRETENDING TO BE THE GOVERNMENT AND POLICING ACADEMIC BOUNDARIES. THERE IS NO IMPACT TO PARTICIPATION IF IT RESULTS IN A DISTORTED, BANKRUPT UNDERSTANDING OF HOW TO CHANGE THE WORLD OR BE BE POLITICAL. IN ORDER FOR IT TO MATTER THAT DEBATE IS MORE ACCESIBLE, THEY MUST PROVE THAT THE TOPIC THEY FORCE US TO DEBATE IS BENEFICIAL.

21

WGLF 2005 2AR STUFF STRAIGHT UP TOPICALITY DEBATES ABOUT THE NUANCES OF SEMANTIC INTERPRETATIONS FUNDAMENTALLY MISS THE POINT TO OUR AFF. THE TYPE OF EDUCATION THEIR INTERPRETATION SECURES IS ONE THAT IS POLITICALLY STAGNANT AND LEAVES US DEBATERS, THE SO-CALLED FUTURE LEADERS OF THE WORLD, WITH NO HOPE FOR MEANINGFUL EDUCATION OR POLITICAL CHANGE. ALL OF THEIR EVIDENCE (HABERMAS, (HABERMAS, MUIR,PARCHER MUIR,PARCHER,, ETC) ARE ALL ANSWERED ANSWERED BY OUR OUR SCHLAG AND AND GRUPPE GRUPPE EVIDENCE. THE NEUTRAL, COMMUNICATIVE MODEL IS BANKRUPT. IT IS NOT ABLE TO KEEP UP WITH THE PROLIFERATION PROLIFERATI ON OF MEDIA DISCOURSE AND THE THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION’S SPINSTERS. NONE OF THEIR EVIDENCE ASSUMES THIS POSTMODERN CONDITION OF COMMUNICATION IN WHICH STRAIGHT FORWARD DELIVERANCE OF COUNTER DEMANDS THROUGH NORMAL COMMUNICATIVE AND POLITICAL CHANNELS PRODUCES COUNTLESS COPIES OF JOHN KERRY. THEIR ASSERTIONS ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO COUNTER THE RIGHT’S INFLUENCE IN POLITICS ARE DESCRIPTIVE OF EXACTLY WHAT OCCURS WHEN WE TRICK OURSELVES INTO THINKING THAT THE OLD APPROACHES TO POLITICAL ACTION ARE SUFFICIENT. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE POLICTICAL HAS ALREADY BEEN CEDED TO THE RIGHT, AND THEY HAVE NO WAY TO COUNTER IT.

22

WGLF 2005 CLAUDE EVIDENCE THEIR INTERPRETATION OF FIAT ENDORSES AN IMPOVERSHED VIEW OF THE STATE BY PORTRAYING IT AS A HOMOGENOUS ENTITY CAPABLE OF ACTING IN PREDICTABLE, RATIONAL WAYS. THIS NEGLECTS THAT THE STATE IS COMPRISED OF A MULTITUDE OF PERSONALITIES WITH COMPETING INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITIES AND GOALS. Claude, ’88 (Prof. of Gov. and Foreign Affairs, U of VA, States and the Global System, p. 18) This view of the state as an institutional monolith is fostered by the notion of sovereignty, which calls up the image of the monarch, presiding majestically over his kingdom.

Sovereignty emphasizes the singularity of the state, its monopoly of authority, its unity of command and its capacity to speak with one voice. Thus, France wills, Iran demands, China intends, New Zealand promises and the Soviet Union insists. One all too easily conjures up the picture of a single-minded and purposeful state that decides exactly what it wants to achieve, adopts coherent policies intelligently adapted to its objectives, knows what it is doing, does what it intends state is reinforced by political scientists’ scientists’ emphasis upon the concept of and always has its act together. This view of the state policy and upon the thesis thesis that governments derive derive policy from calculations of national interest. We thus take it for granted that states act internationally in accordance with rationality conceived and consciously constructed schemes of action, and we implicitly refuse to consider the possibility that alternatives to policy-directed behavior may have importance – alternatives such as random, reactive, instinctual, instinctual, habitual and conformist behaviour. behaviour. Our rationalistic assumption that states do what they have planned to do tends to inhibit the discovery that states sometimes do what they feel compelled to do, or what they have the opportunity to do, or what they have usually done, or what other states are doing, or whatever the line of least resistance would seem to suggest. Academic preoccupation with the making of policy is accompanied by academic neglect of of the execution of policy. We seem to assume that once the state has calculated its interest and contrived a policy to further that interest, the carrying out of policy is the virtually automatic result of the routine functioning of the bureaucratic mechanism of the state. I am inclined to call this the Genesis theory of public administration, taking as my text the passage: ‘And God said, Let there be light; and there was light’. I suspect that in the realm of government, policy execution rarely follows so promptly and inexorably from policy statement. Alternatively, one may dub it the Pooh-Bah/Ko-Ko theory, honouring those denizens of William S. Gilbert’s Japan who took the position that when the Mikado ordered that something be done it was as good as done and might as well be declared to have been done.

23

WGLF 2005 CLAUDE OVERVIEW EXTEND THE 2AC CLAUDE EVIDENCE- THEIR CONCEPTION OF FIAT HOMOGENIZES THE STATE, IGNORING THE MYRIAD OF PERSONALITIES THAT OPERATE THE APPARATUS KNOWN AS THE USFG. THIS PREOCCUPATION WITH THE MAKING OF POLICY RATHER THAN THE EXECUTION OF POLICY SERVES TO IMPOVERSH OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE WAY POLITICS OPERATES. FIAT ONLY SERVES TO JUSTIFY THIS APPROACH BY WISHING AWAY THE HARD QUESTIONS OF POLICY EXECUTION. THE USFG ACTS, FUNDING IS GUARANTEED, AND THE NEG NEG GETS A POLITICS POLITICS LINK AND THE COURTS COURTS COUNTERPLAN. COUNTERPLAN. THIS SHALLOW SHALLOW EXAMINATION EXAMINATION OF THE THE WAY POLICY OUTCOMES ACTUALLY HAPPEN TURNS THEIR EDUCATION CLAIMS INTO REASONS TO VOTE FOR US.

24

WGLF 2005 2AC: FRAMEWORK THEIR CALL FOR A COMMON, LITERAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE TOPIC RELIES UPON A NORMATIVE VIEW OF COMMUNICATION THAT PRESUPPOSES LANGUAGE AS A NEUTRAL CONDUIT OF THOUGHT. THIS LARGELY IGNORES THE REALITY THAT MUCH OF COMMUNICATION IS INEFFECTIVE. SCHLAG IN 1990 (43 STAN. L.R.) One answer is that normative legal thought conceives of its own linguistic situation in just this problematic manner: “ getting its message across.” Normative legal thought establishes and sees itself as transmitting important “substance” through already existing, relatively unobstructed channels of legal of legal communication. communication. This conception of language language as an empty, neutral, already extant conduit for thought is itself linguistically embedded in our metaphorical understanding of language. Unfortunately, Unfortunately, as Reddy demonstrates, this conception greatly overestimates the possibility of successful communication and greatly underestimates the need for active intervention on the part of the participants in constructing communication

WGLF 2005 SO-CALLED 2AC TOPICALITY RANT 1/2 YOU HAVE ALL TAKEN DA BAIT. TOPICALITY IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE SOVEREIGN BAN, BIOPOLITICAL AUTHORITY, LOSS LOSS OF BEING BEING AND A REVERSE VOTING ISSUE ISSUE FOR REASONS REASONS OF GIGADEATH GIGADEATH AND STOOPIDITY.

FAIR AND PREDICTABLE FOR WHOM? NAZIS, PROBABLY SINCE THEY HAD RESOLUTIONS AND FAIR DIVISIONS OF GROUND BETWEEN THEMSELVES AND THE JEWS. GEORGE BUSH INVADED IRAQ TO PRESERVE PREDICTABILITY AND FAIRNESS FOR THE AMERICANS. DICTIONARY.COM, EVEN BEING THE LINGUISTIC FASCISTS THEY ARE, DEFINES TOPICAL AS: CURRENTLY OF INTEREST OR COMTEMPORARY. OUR LYOTARD EVIDENCE AND OUR WGLF CRITICISMS BOTH PROVE THE FOREMOST POLITICAL QUESTION IS NOT ENERGY POLICY, BUT THE LOOMING IMP/EXPLOSION OF THE SUN: SHOULDN’T DABAIT THEN FOCUS ON THIS TOPIC INSTEAD OF SOME WEAK ASS FOSSILS SHIT? IF ALL OF THEIR EDUCATION CLAIMS ARE TRUE AND DABAIT IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT PREPARING OURSELVES TO SOLVE REAL PROBLEMS, THEN WHY SHOULDN’T WE FOCUS ON THE LOOMING IMP/EXPLOSION OF THE SUN. IN FACT, THEY SHOULD LOSE THIS SO-CALLED DABAIT BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT PREPARED TO BE FUTURE POLICYMAKERS, BECAUSE POLICYMAKERS IN THE FUTUREPAST WILL RECOGNIZE THE FORESIGHT OUR CRITICISM ENTAILS. WHAT HAS THIS ACTIVITY PREPARED US FOR IF WE CAN’T TAKE THE UNEXPECTED LINE OF ARGUMENTATION AND CONSTRUCT CONSTRUCT ANSWERS ANSWERS TO IT? THE NEGATIVE NEGATIVE SHOULD SHOULD LOSE FOR MAKING IT TO A SO-CALLED SO-CALLED “ROUND ROBBIN’” AND FORGETTING ANY CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS. WE HAVE ALWAYS ALREADY CRITICIZED THE TYPES OF AFFIRMATIVES THEY WANT US TO RUN AS BEING INEXTRICABLY EVIL. THE GENOCIDAL CALCULATIONS AND BUREAUCRATIC ROLEPLAYING THAT ARE NECESSITATED BY THEIR CLAIMS OF US HAVING TO HAVE A REAL PLAN THAT DEALS WITH THE ENERGY AND OTHER CRAP IS EXACTLY THE THING OUR FIRST SPEECH INDICTS. ANDY ELLIS OUTLINES OUR CRITICISM OF POLICY DABAIT: 3)Lets make this argument perfectly clear too, its no t just ok to be like i wanna work on the hill or i wanna work in the washington think tank establishment any more than its ok to be all like well i dont like the third reich but that internship a the chancelors asitant is a good carreer move, people wont say this because we are all supposed to be civil in this activity but what many of the community members use debate as preperation for is preperation for a kind of thinking that has left millions of dead bodies scattered here and around the world. When people say well i do this because i wanna be a congressman so i have to have traditional debate so i can pre pare i say see you dont know how right you are, my experience with much actual policy making is that it is a lot like traditional deate, decisons made in a hermeticly sealed insular context free from public participation and input in which the bodies of those most effected by the decsion are wielded entirely out of their control, decisons are always played out ona gameboard and made in a calculative way, much like debates most of the real policymaking is made by privilaged white males in closed door settings, much like traditional debate a discourse of expertise is utilized to exclude anybody who doesnt know the language, so yes debate is preaprtion for the policy making process, but instead of a reason why to keep going its a reason to take action to intervene against the genocidal condensation that exists within the preperatory pedagigy that jake and a bunch of other people simply find fun...lots of people like bull fighting too, doesnt mean that your fun is free of complicty in bad shit 4)before 4)before you tel me about all the good policy makers who have come out of debate that would have otherwise been eviler genocidal fucks,

WGLF 2005 SO-CALLED 2AC TOPICALITY RANT 2/2

consider the massive amounts of lawyers and policymakers who we have taught to be better genocideres, those folks who will now be better prosecutors better imperial planners, better able to add liberal legitimacy to the pnac empire machine,simply put i dont doubt that many of you are prearing for a future in politics, my problem is with the way you prepare and what you are preapring for. 14

Mann (Prof English @ Pomona) 1995 Paul, “Stupid Undergrounds” PostModern Culture 5:3, Project Muse, http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/postmodern_cultur http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/postmodern_culture/v005/5.3mann.html e/v005/5.3mann.html There is a certain justice to giving the task for discovering the silent forms of control to those whose primary mode of operation is enormous volume. The trajectory from loud rock music to even louder industrial music (Boyd Rice/Non plays too loud even for much of the stupid club scene) to experiments in subliminal sound is continuous. There is, in a certain sense, no difference, no line between sound so loud it is all one can hear and sound so deep and pervasive it cannot be heard at all. Loud is critical. Or perhaps we should put the same matter differently: if we have taken critical to imply a certain distance, a certain non-identity with the object, l oud proceeds, as the stupid underground always p roceeds, in the opposite direction. Rock music, after all nothing more than the prattle of a banal hybridization of capital and adolescent (male) fantasy, becomes, in intensity, at the most extreme volume, the stupid reduction of that constructed reality, the limit of its tolerability. Critical then not through distance but, as we have seen, through proximity, through what would appear to be the most uncritical embrace. Here again Zizek is helpful: "Although functioning as a support for the totalitarian order,

fantasy is then at the same time the leftover of the real that enables us to 'pull ourselves out,' to preserve a kind of distance from the socio-symbolic socio-symbolic network. network . When we become crazed in our obsession with idiotic enjoyment, even totalitarian manipulation cannot reach us" (128). Zizek's example here is precisely popular music, the inane ditty that a nchors the fantasy, that runs endlessly in one's head; what one wishes to add here is the criterion of force, of intensity, of sound so loud that, even though it is a cultural product from top to bottom, it nonetheless enfolds the audience and isolates it within the symbolic order. The intensity of loud drowns out the Other. It is the limit of the symbolic, its null point, experienced in the very onslaught of its signs. Perhaps we could appropriate a Lacanian term for this

fantastic volume that goes beyond fantasy: the sinthome. Zizek calls it "subversive," but that, unfortunately, is to offer it to those who wannabe subversive, to see themselves seen as subversives, to be (to fantasize being) political agents in an older and ever more current sense.26 Let us nonetheless pursue the concept for a moment. Zizek: [T]he signifier permeated with idiotic enjoyment is what Lacan, in the last stage of his teaching, called le sinthome. Le sinthome is not the symptom, the coded message to be deciphered by interpretation, but the meaningless letter that immediately procures jouis-sense,"enjoyment-in-meaning," jouis-sense,"enjoyment-in-meaning," "enjoy-meant.". . . [W]hen we take into account the dimension of the sinthome, it is no longer sufficient to denounce the "artificial" character of the ideological experience, to demonstrate the way the object experienced by ideology as "natural" and "given" is effectively a discursive construction. . . . What we must

do . . . on the contrary, is to isolate the sinthome from the context by virtue of which it exerts its power of fascination in order to expose the sinthome's utter stupidity. . . . [It] produces produces a distance not by locating the phenomenon in its historical totality, but by making us experience the utter nullity of its immediate reality, of its stupid, material presence that escapes "historical mediation" . . . . [I]t is a little piece of the real attesting to the ultimate nonsense of the universe, but insofar as this object allows us to condense, to locate, to materialize the nonsense of the universe in it, insofar as the object serves to represent this nonsense, it enables us to sustain ourselves in the midst of inconsistency inconsistency . . . .

MOSSIMAN IN 1998 (ELIZABETH, THE SOVEREIGN VALUE OF TRANSGRESSION, http://www.temple.edu/gradmag/spring http://www.temple.edu/gradmag/spring98/mosiman.htm) 98/mosiman.htm) During Simone's recuperation her fascination with eyes intensifies. No longer able to participate in any sexual activity, she and the I who focuses the text(17) play with eggs in a manner which mimics a metonymic substitution of images . "She soon delighted in having me throw eggs into the

toilet bowl, hard-boiled hard-boiled eggs, which sank, and shells sucked out in various degrees to obtain varying levels of immersion"(36). Sometimes she would urinate on them. Physically confined, Simone continues the violation of fixed images, while the images themselves proliferate and the possibilities of incommensurate connections connections explode. Eyes in the toilets, hard-boiled eggs, partially sucked eggs, all objectify imagery that is fixed. Simone's play with eggs gradually increases the force of its transgressive nature.The mother's entrance into the room advances the play to the edge of its own limits; instead of disrupting disrupting their activity, her presence intensifies their pleasure. In order for their behavior to be have impact, there must be a prohibition against it. The play must occur within the system so that the system itself can release its own non-meaning. non-meaning. "Play," Bataille notes, "is nothing if not an open and unreserved challenge to everything opposed to play" (quoted by Derrida 378n40). Simone's play with the egg prefigures the Derridean concept of play, an activity of the difference that results from t he appropriating action of classification systems such as language or numismatics. Bataille's play executes the non-meaning in the appropriative appropriative movement that creates meaning--being an activity of that which is not retained in the substitutive movement of metaphor. To return to the system of coinness, Bataille's play with the egg and the eye and the t esticles---a seemingly random contiguity of images privileging surfaces in this text which classifies eyeness--calls attention to a system that contains objects detached from their totality of meaning. The coin collected as coin no longer in currency is a coin detached from its use-value. Play is the activity of the use-value,the presence of the bank draft. A reading or writing of the text is an action of expenditure without reserve-pure potlatch. The images are put into play by the urination which figurates the fissure or rupture needed to unlock the contained optical simulacrum and to unleash the violent discharges of the pineal eye: "Upon my asking [Simone] what the word urinate reminded her of, she replied: terminate, the eyes, with a razor, something red, the sun" (38). In The Story of the Eye the "eye" of the anus or genital orifice, the description of which always foregrounds the raw and fleshy aspects, becomes the rupturing gaze, and its most gruesome portrayal is the bullfighting scene when the eye of Granero, the matador, is gouged out by the bull. The final scene in the church of Don Juan, however, depicts the most virulent transgression of The Story of the Eye. If the text is God relieving Himself, then these final scenes can be read as God voiding His own Absoluteness, a gesture reified in the urination of the priest into the ciborium containing the communion wafers which are an embodiment of the absent Christ, himself an embodiment of the absent Absolute. Since the ritual of the Mass includes includes the expression "the Word is God." The action action of urination here is then the transgressing transgressing of the system of Christian religion that grounds grounds the systems of knowledge in Western culture, that is, the systems through which we know our world and which enable us to live within it. But as urinating is the passing and the making, this transgressive action expendsin order that the system can continue to make. In Simone's intercourse with the dying priest, she attempts to capture the totality of the experience of life which can only be gained by dying. Her action takes place at t he limit of life, as this last transgressive scene takes place at the limit of the prohibition---the violation of the most sacred. Transgression must occur within the system or it would not be a transgression, as Bataille seeks to embrace the non-meaning of the bank draft within the system because to go outside the system would be to be outside the totality of coinness and to render the non-meaning meaningless. meaningless. For a human to die is to experience the totality of what it means to live, but to die is to move beyond expression. Bataille needs always to be at t he limit while including a gesture toward the non-being on the other side. Bataille writes at the conclusion of his essay on "The Notion of Expenditure" that "the states of excitation, which are comparable to toxic states, can be defined as t he illogical and irresistible impulse to reject material or moral goods that it would have been possible to utilize rationally (in conformity with the balancing of accounts)" (128). What he presents to the reader, in t he form of the narrative text, The Story of the Eye is a logical gesture of irrationality which expresses the need of a limitless loss which Bataille maintains is necessary to remain rationally within the system. Bataille's transgressive text transgresses the prohibition prohibition against the transgressive act, but without text there could be no transgression. From within the system, however, the gesture must always remain an irrational gesture of refusal to remain within the system. The text, for the

reader as well as Bataille, is anexperience of irrationality, expended in the reading and the writing.

WGLF 2005 MONKEYBALLS 2AC 4/5 9) OUR METHOD IS ONE OF COMMUNICATIVE GUERILLA TACTICS. WE OVERIDENTIFY WITH THE ABSURDITY ABSURDITY OF DEBATE PRACTICES SUCH AS THE STRATEGIC SEARCH FOR THE BIGGEST IMPACT CARD AND THE REDUCTIONIST LOGIC OF LABELING EVERYTHING AS NAZISM. TRADITIONAL APPROACHES TO DEBATE AND COMMUNICATION ARE FLAWED. WE NEED TO INSTEAD EMBRACE “DETOURNMENT”, A METHOD OF CULTURE JAMMING AND OVERIDENTIFICATION THAT ALLOWS US TO EXPLOIT THE ABSURDITIES OF THE POWERS WE ARE FIGHTING. GRUPPE IN 2003 ( HTTP://ionek.st HTTP://ionek.strg.at/bin/view/M rg.at/bin/view/Main/KgUsingLan ain/KgUsingLan)) When we started to think about Communication guerilla , the political space seemed barren and c losed. It was the early nineties, the west was at war against Irak, and the political depression of the nineties was at its fu ll height. After the breakdown of bureaucratic socialism, capitalism seemed to have won once and forever . Moreover, Germany saw a wave of violent racist attacks against immigrants, backed up by a humanist discourse of the elites who were in favor of immigration control. All the counterinformation in previous years had not changed the political climate to the better. We were tired of performing political rituals like trashing McDonald?’s, stopping this nuclear waste transport or that neo-fascist meeting. It wasn’t fun, and anyway, these rituals had become the included other of the s tate: the roles were set, they knew how to deal with this kind of attacks. They even needed them to provide a s ymbolic balance against the extreme right and to justify new repressive laws. So we started experimenting with another mode o f political articulation. Interventions and theoretical analysis were constantly interacting. We looked at the practices of Dada, the Situationists, the Provos in the Netherlands, the Indiani Metropolitani in Italy, the various psychogeographic societies, the “Spaßguerilla” in Germany, the Yippies in the US, pranksters and many other freaks, experts in ”Culture Jamming” , and fools. We blagged anything that could be useful to distort the unwritten rules of the Cultural Grammar, to subvert this powerful machinery which is constantly producing acceptance of existing power relations and normality. In recent years, this kind of creative political articulation has become more popular among artists/activists. How do these witty, sometimes silly attacks against multinational corporations, politicians or other authorities work? A first insight comes from communication theory. Why is nobody listening? The best argument is useless if nobody wants to hear it. Thanks to continuous production and d issemination of counter information, the world knows that the globe is warming, which didn’t stop US president Bush to block the limitation of emissions in the Kyoto. Kyoto . Everybody knows that people in Global South are forced to work in sweatshops under terrible conditions, conditions, but this knowledge has hardly any consequences. And although we all know that people who migrate to Europe usually have a reason for that, the border regime around it is getting tighter and tighter. So although critical information is widely available, it doesn’t necessarily lead to political consequences. Most traditional politics on the left are based on a simple model of communication: Information is sent bya sender to a receiver via a channel. Implicitly, it is assumed that the message is received as intended by the sender. The conclusion is that those who own the sender control what people are thinking by manipulating the messages. If the messages were not manipulated, more ‚truthful‘, people wouldn’t go along with oppressive politics. As a consequence, we would have to take power over the TV- and radiostations, the newspapers and the internet – that’s revolution. Or at least we need to produce our o wn media. Zet while counter-information is necessary to keep ourselves up-to-date, it usually cannot compete with industrially produced mainstream media. This model of communication has been critizised for its linearity. For instance, it cannot explain why the system of burocratic socialism in East Germany collapsed, although it controlled all the senders. A more complex model of communication theoryfocusses less on the messages and more on the codes that are being used in the production and the reading of messages. The sender “encodes” information before shipping it off to the channel. He uses a discourse which corresponds with his own interests and social/political positioning Before the receiver understands the message, she has do “decode” it according to her own codes. Both sets of codes are not necessarily identical, and not all receivers use the same set of codes. The same message can acquire different, even contradictory meanings, depending on the discoursive codes people use to “read” them. Although the discoursive power structures strongly suggest certain preferred readings, oppositional readings are possible. Umberto Eco, the Italian cultural theorist calls this process the variability of interpretation. Tactics – the art of the weak This phenomenon leads to interesting principles, methods, practices and techniques for Communication guerilla. A guerilla in the territory of communication can make use of the cracks and contradictions of the system. Relying on a tactical mode of political articulation, it doesn’t need to seek control of the endless chain of signification. To the contrary, it plays on the messyness of the communication process, creating communicative situations with a potential to un leash divergent and deviant readings of situations and informations. informations. To use a military metaphor: Communication guerilla breaks out of the traditionally strategic approach to political articulation. It acknowledges that the social movements on the left are not powerful enough to engage in a trench war between “us” and “them”, that we are acting on a territory organized by the law of a foreign power. What French philosopher Michel de Certeau states fortactics in general, also applies to Communication guerilla: Lacking it’s own place, it “operates in isolated actions, blow by blow. It takes advantage of ‚oportunities‘ and depends on them, being without any base where it could stockpile its winnings, build up its own position, and plan raids. What it wins it cannot keep. This nowhere gives a tactic mobility (...). It must vigilantly make use of the cracks that particular conjunctions open in the surveillance of the proprietary powers. It poaches in them. It creates surprises in them. (...) In short, a tactic is an art of the weak.” Multinational corporations, as agents of hegemony, use a strategic approach. They are furiously defending a territory made of images, colours, music, logos. Since the marketing strategies are increasingly shifting from selling products to selling lifestyles, the brand needs to be defended at all costs. Image has become capital. At the same time, by depending on the elusive power of signs, they have become more vulnerable to the blows of Communication guerilla. Counter information is continuously producing information on the injustice of existing power relations or the devastating work conditions in the sweatshops, to name only a few fields of intervention. Subvertisers like the US-based adbusters , or the campaigners against Nike , communicate such messages by using the first principle of communication guerilla: detournement. By distorting the signs and symbols available in public space, they suggest a morerealistic reading of advertisements. advertisements. The simple detournement of a billboard, for instance, – “shell” becomes “hell” -creates a moment of surprise and confusion in the receiver. It suggests the use of oppositional codes and bring out meanings other than those intended by the advertisers. The aura of a mythical figure like Microsoft boss Bill Gates can be detourned by a pie placed into his face at the right

31

WGLF 2005 MONKEYBALLS 2AC 5/5 moment – needless to say that this also works for politicians, philosophers and other representatives of power. With wit and humour, detournements create a distance between the sender and the receiver, they cause embarassement to those whose normality is usually accepted. Sometimes, it is more effective to slip into the mind of the political counterpart rather than creating a distance through detournement – especially since the ‚cultural grammar‘ in western industrialised societies with its ideology of democracy and free speech has ways to neutralise obvious criticism. ‚Overidentification‘ as the second principle of communication guerilla relies on the phenomenon that every ideology has a hidden reverse, something that must not be articulated under any circumstances, a taboo (Zizek). Overidentification is about speaking out this hidden tabu in language of power itself, clearer than the political counterparts yet in a perfect copy of the tone of their voices and the looks of their symbols.

WGLF 2005 EXTENSION: LEFTIST POLITICS SUCK TRADITIONAL LEFTIST LEFTI ST POLITICS ARE DOOMED TO FAILURE: ONLY BY DISTORTING THE SIGNS AND SYMBOLS OF THE PREVAILING ESTABLISHMENT CAN EFFECTIVE POLITICAL ACTION OCCUR. (http://www.medialounge.net/lounge/workspace/crashhtml/mr orkspace/crashhtml/mr/4.htm) /4.htm) GRUPPE IN 1998 (http://www.medialounge.net/lounge/w Guerrilla communication is political, militant action (politische Militanz). It differs from the conventional (autonomous) militant action in as much as it does not simply aim to destroy the codes of power and sovereignty, but aims to effectively disfigure disfigure them. Guerrilla communication communication is a particular form of political communication which does not just transport statements in plain text (like flyers, demo slogans, posters). The goal is neither the interruption nor the permanent appropriation of a communicational communicational channel. The goal is the theft and distortion of messages. We start from the premise that the significance of communication is not just what is said but also the form of the communication itself.

It is the aim of guerrilla communication communication to de-legitimate the present state of power and sovereignty which by now seems so normal and unalterable. unalterable. In order to do that, one has to understand its multifaceted structures and manifestations. Guerrilla communication communication tries to deal with the normative power structures of the established forms of communication communication as well as the internalised power structures structures at the level of subject. subject . This requires that situations be manufactured in which it becomes perceptible - for at least a brief moment - that everything could actually be quite different.

Why Communication Guerrilla?

Guerrilla communication is a result of the experiences with the past concepts of the oppositional public realm (Gegenûffentlichkeitskonzepten) (Gegenûffentlichkeitskonzepten) and educational practices of the left. In late capitalist societies nothing can be won from the unimpeded spread of truth.

Traditional Traditional left politics frequently frequently seem to rely on the persuasive power of the rational argument. The confidence confidence that the simple presentation of information represents an effective form of political action is still unshakeable. Critical content is supposed to be sufficient to tear up the network of manipulating messages, with which the media influence the consciousness consciousness of the masses. The main problem here is the acceptance of the idea: 'whomsoever possesses the senders can control the thoughts of humans'. This hypothesis comes from a v ery simple communication model which only focuses on the 'sender' (in the case of mass communication usually centrally andindustrially organised), the 'channel' which transports the information, and the 'receiver'.

GRUPPE IN 1998 (http://www.copyriot.com/unefarce (http://www.copyriot.com/unefarce/no1/artikel/cg.htm /no1/artikel/cg.htm))

The bourgeois system takes it‘s strength - beyond other things - from the ability to include critique. A government needs an opposition, every opinion needs to be balanced with anotherone, the concept of representative democracy relies on the fiction of equal exchange. Every criticism which doesn‘t fundamentally shatter the legitimacy of the ruling system, tends to become part of it. Guerrilla communication is an attempt to intervene without getting absorbed by the dominant discourse . We are looking for ways to get involved in situations and at the same time to refuse any constructive participation.

Power relations have a tendency to appear normal, even natural and certainly inevitable. They are inscribed into the rules of everyday life. Communication Communication guerrillas want to create those short and shimmering moments of confusion and distortion, moments which tell us that everything could be completely different: a fragmented utopia as a seed of change. change. Against a symbolic order of western capitalist societies which is built around discourses of rationality and rational conduct, guerrilla communication relies on the powerful possibility of expressing afundamental critique through the non-verbal, paradoxical and mythical . To be quite clear: guerrilla communication isn‘t meant to replace a rational critique of dominant politics and hegemonic culture. It doesn‘t substitute counterinformation, but creates additional possibilities for intervention. But also, it shouldn‘t be misunderstood as the topping on the cake, a mere addition to the hard work of 'real' politics and direct, material action.

In its search for seeds of subversion, guerrilla guerrilla communication tries to take up contradictions contradictions which are hidden in seemingly normal, everyday situations. It attempts to distort normality by addressing those unspoken desires that are usually silenced by omnipresent rules of conduct, rules that define the socially acceptable modes of behaviour as well as the 'normal' ways of communication and interpretation interpretation.. To give just a simple example: Most people will say that it is not okay to dodge paying the fare, even if there is awidespread feeling that public transport is over-expensive. If, however, some communication guerrillas at the occasion of an important public event like the funeral of Lady Di manage to distribute fake announcements declaring that for the purpose of participating, public transport will be free, the possibility of reducing today‘s expenses may tempt even those who doubt the authenticity of the announcement. Communication guerrillas attack the power-relations that are inscribed into the social organisation of space and time, into rules and manners, into the order of public conduct and discourse. Everywhere in this 'Cultural Grammar' of a society there are legitimations and naturalisations of economic, political and cultural power and inequality. Communication guerrillas use the knowledge of 'Cultural Grammar' accessible to everybody

in order to cause irritations by distorting the rules of normality: It is precisely this kind of irritations that put into question seeminglynatural seeminglynatural aspects of s ocial life by making the hidden power relations visible and offering the possibility to deconstruct them. Using a term coined by Pierre Bourdieu, one might say that guerrilla communication aims at a temporary expropriation of Cultural Capital, at a disturbance of the symbolic economy of social relations.

The deportation alliance, Horror Vacui and GelöbNIX were/are explicitely situated within a wider critical discourse articulated by social movements, in which strategic demands like “open borders”, "no German soldiers in Kosovo" or "open access to the inner cities" were made. Yet they were not confined to the designated political space marked by a culture of political parties, demonstrations, info-stalls, demands, frustrating meetings and the speech of morality. Taking tactics further, c ontextualising political issues in unusual ways and refusing any clear definition can help to widen the political space. Detournements, happenings and similarinterventions can insert the political into daily life, if the organisers are taking their own experience with public space and their own local knowledge into account. If you go to the cit y for summer sales, you hardly expect your bag being controlled by police. This caused irritations to many shoppers at the day of "GelöbNIX", distorting a positive image of police who should be there to protect "us" and reserving controls to "others". Ideally, activists are part of a specific local environment and mentality, which enables them to draw on detailed local knowledge, local anger, local pleasures and the secret subversive desires of ordinary people. For example, quite a few citizens chose to use the free ticket for public transport in one of the fake leaflets, although they could have realised with a little consideration that it was a prank - and maybe they did. The same leaflet was reported in the local section of the newspaper with some amusement - another sign that it had met localinterest. Only if an intervention works locally, it can become relevant in a broader context. A focus on images and playful forms can create new alliances. If it is not necessary to agree on every detail of the political analysis, preparations can be more inclusive. Artist and activist scene are beginning to overlap. A new arena of political articulation opens up again - and by using images, music, bodies, performances, activists are rediscovering the pleasures of aesthetic experiences as a part of political speech .

Times have changed since the Manual of Communication Guerilla was first published. While the changes of social and economic power are not in our favour, in the metropolis, a wave of energy amongs activists is tangible. This is most visible in the new global movement which articulates itself in protests against organisations like the world bank and the international monetary fund. Large numbers of protesters, new/old forms of protest like carnivals, creative interventions and direct actions, maybe also the web-hype have put this movement on the agenda of mainstream media. The appropriation of information technology has facilitated a process which creates a worldwide communication network and allows for rapid communication within a global activist ‚scene'. In this sense, the conditions of struggle have improved, certainly in the space of representation (everybody knows that there is a new, globally connected socialmovement).Yet in provincial area s, local neighbourhoods, small towns and border areas, we are fewer than the images of mass demos from Seattle, Washington, London etc would suggest. Locally, we continue to rely on the molecular tactics of communication guerilla, the kind of actions anyone can prepare without the backup of thousands of activists. While the large mobilisations are highlights in the activists calendar, communication guerilla-type actions are effective interventions in local public spaces, effective not only in terms of annoying the conservative hypocrits, ordinary racists and apostles of normalisation, but also for our own pleasure and against the frustrations we are facing in daily life.

WGLF 2005 LUFTHANSA EXAMPLE GRUPPE IN 2003 ( HTTP:// HTTP://ionek.strg.at/bi ionek.strg.at/bin/view/Main/K n/view/Main/KgUsingLan gUsingLan)) An example for the sophisticated use of both principles is a campaign of the German anti-racist network “kein mensch ist illegal” against the deportation of refugees and immigrants. Or, in the logic of overidentification: Its objective is to “help” the German airline Lufthansa to get out of their obligation to do the dirty business for the German government by brutally carrying out deportations. This tongue-in-cheek help turns out to be a continous ‚image pollution‘, which constantly puts the airline into trouble. The image of Lufthansa (and every other airline) is based on the fantasy of a world without any borders, open for unlimited excitement, for adventurous explorations of its hidden treasures (or business opportunities). The hidden reverse of this ideology of globalisation is migration and border-regimes with all their deadly consequences. Lufthansa‘s Lufthansa‘s image relies on the assumption that they make

thepleasures of travelling available to every customer, that they can take you to the most remote parts of the world at any given time. What may not be articulated is that at the same time, Lufthansa is coercing ‚unwanted migrants‘ to go where they certainly do not want to go – the country they were forced to leave for political or economic reasons , or even a place where they have never been before. The Lufthansa Campaign is using this hidden reverse in many creative ways. In the first leaflet in spring 2000, they worked with the principle of overidentification by producing a ‚fake‘ to advertise the new „deportation class“ which they had invented for Lufthansa. The leaflet features the brand colours, a detourned logo and the typography of Lufthansa. It looks exactly as if it was produced by the airline itself. It also reads like an original, since the corporate language with its customer-friendly overtones is copied as well. Moreover, the content overidentifies completely with thelogic of profit. Lufthansa , it is explained, is obliged

to carry out deportations deportations for the German government. Yet the company is aware that the presence of handcuffed people with special helmets over their heads and sticky tape across their mouths reduces the comfort of the paying passengers, expecially if they resist their deportation. deportation. To compensate for this inconvenience, Lufthansa Lufthansa has launched the “deportation class” and from now on offers seats on such flights at reduced prices . This fake leaflet was placed in the information stalls of Lufthansa in airports, at tourist fairs and travel-agents. The logic was credible enough, many people including customers and journalists thought the airline capable of such cynical marketing and consequently started attacking it. Lufthansa was forced to publish a dementi to distance itself from the incriminating leaflet . But the company found itself in a double bind: They couldn’t deny the fact that they are carrying out deportations, and that this caused inconveniences; at the same time, they didn’t offer any compensation. compensation. The logo of the deportation class was the winner of a poster competition which the campaign had tendered until March 2000. It called for detournements of Lufthansa branding to make connections between the ideology of free travel and deportations. The submitted posters were put together in a travelling exhibition and presented in many museums. Interestingly, Lufthansa Lufthansa only objected in October 2000, when they discovered that the exhibition is also available on the internet. They threatened to sue the owner of the webpage. Supported by kein mensch ist illegal, he didn`t back down. To the contrary – within a few days, the exhibition was mirrored on dozens of other international webpages. Lufthansa ended up looking really stupid, a web-newbie with no respect for the freedom of art. In the end, Lufthansa begged the campaign to stop embarrassing them. The company faced ‚tactical embarrassement‘ and interventions on many other fronts. The passenger lobby group “fair fly” staged invisible theatre at airports and tourist fairs, demonstrating the act of deportation. At an information stall at the Expo in Hanover, plastic-bags with the logo of the deportation alliance were distributed – filled up with information about deportations. At the annual shareholder meeting in summer 2000, along with more traditional protests, a concerned shareholder pointed out the financial risks involved in deportations . In several cases, deportations deportations were stopped

through direct action.

WGLF 2005 WGLF FOGG OF WAR 2NC 1/2 2AC RESPONSE TO THE NONSENSE OF THE 1NC DEMONSTRATES THE EFFICACY OF OUR APPROACH TO INTELLECTUAL WARFARE. THE PRACTICES OF DECEPTION AND TRICKERY MUST BE USED TO JAM THE BIOPOLITICAL RADAR. THEIR POSITION OF SPEAKING OUT IS TOO RISKY: IT TELLS EVERYTHING WE KNOW TO OUR ENEMIES, RISKING CERTAIN DESTRUCTION. MANN IN 1996 (PAUL, POMONA ENGLISH, THE NINE GROUNDS OF INTELLECTUAL WARFARE, postmodern culture, january) Michel de Certeau points out that, for Clausewitz, the distinction between strategy and tactics is determined not only by scales of conflict (war vs. battle) but by relative magnitudes of power. Strategy is for the strong, and it is deployed in known, visible, mapped spaces; tactics is "an art of the weak," of those who must operate inside territory controlled by a greater power; it takes place on the ground of the "other," inside alien space .[35] It must therefore deploy deception in the face of a power "bound by its very visibility." De Certeau suggests that even in cases where the weak force has already been sighted, it might use deception to great advantage. This is another lesson from Clausewitz: " trickery is possible for the weak, and often it is his only possibility, as a 'last resort': The weaker the forces at the disposition of the strategist, the more the strategist will be able to use deception." In the "practice of daily life," in spaces of signification, in the contests of critical argument, such a tactics of the weak would also apply:

(38)

And yet it is rare that any of this ever occurs to critics, who seem to believe that "subversion" consists of vicarious identification with subversives, and of telling everything one knows to one's enemies. It is nonetheless already the case that, in critical discourse, behind all the humanistic myths of communication, understanding, and interpretive fidelity, one finds the tactical value of misinterpretations. In an argument it is often crucial for combatants not to know their enemy, to project instead a paper figure, a distortion, against which they can conceive and reinforce their own positions. Intelligence positions. Intelligence,, here, is not only knowledge of one's enemies but the tactical lies one tells about them, even to oneself . This is so regular a phenomenon of discursive conflict that it cannot be dismissed as an aberration that might be remedied through better communication, better listening skills, more disinterested criticism. One identifies one's own signal in part by jamming everyone else's, setting it off from the noise one generates around it. There is, in other words, already plenty of fog in discursive warfare, and yet we tend to remain passive in the face of it, and for the most part completely and uncritically committed to exposing ourselves to attack. Imagine what might be possible for a writing that is not insistently positional, not devoted to shoring itself up, to fixing itself in place, to laying out all its plans under the eyes of its opponents. Nothing, after all, has been more fatal for the avant-gardes than the form of the manifesto. If only surrealism had been more willing to lie, to dissimulate, to abandon the petty narcissism of the position and the desire to explain itself to

WGLF FOGG OF WAR 2NC 2/2 anyone who would listen, and instead explored the potential offered it by the model of the secret society it also hoped to be. Intellectual warfare must therefore investigate the tactical advantages of deception and c landestinity over the habitual, quasi-ethical demands of clarity and forthrightness, let alone the narcissistic demands of self-promotion and mental exhibitionism, from however fortified a position. If to be seen by the enemy is to be destroyed, then intellectual warfare must pursue its own stealth technology. Self-styled intellectual warriors will explore computer networks not only as more rapid means of communication and publishing but as means for circumventing publication, publication, as semi-clandestine lines of circulation, encoded correspondence, correspondence, and semiotic speed. There will be no entirely secure secrecy,

WGLF 2005 just as there are no impregnable positions -- that that too is Virilio's argument -- but a shrouded shrouded nomadism is already spreading in and around major discursive conflicts. conflicts. There are many more than nine grounds, but the rest are secret.

VOTE NEGATIVE TO MAKE THE AFFIRMATIVE DISAPPEAR. JAM THE BIOPOLITICAL RADAR BY MAKING YOUR TRUE ALLEGIANCES ALLEGIANCES SECRET. REMAIN WITHIN THE FOG OF WAR TO HONE OUR TACTICS UNTIL THE TIME IS RIGHT. MANN IN 1996 (PAUL, POMONA ENGLISH, THE NINE GROUNDS OF INTELLECTUAL WARFARE, postmodern culture, january) The standpoint , identification with and defense of one's own thought, the demand that one be on one's own side, that one stand by one's word, is so standard a feature of intellectual ethics and politics that it has been taken completely for granted. But the entrenched position is a vestige of archaic forms of warfare. The Tofflers argue that the Gulf War demonstrated the failure of entrenchment -- Iraq's older, industrial, sedentary strategy -- against advanced military technologies of speed, stealth, and coordinated intelligence. "[T]he allied force was not a [conventional military] machine, but a system with far greater internal feedback, communication, and selfregulatory adjustment capability. It was . . . a 'thinking system'" (80). For Napoleon as well, Virilio notes, "the capacity for war [was] the capacity for movement" (WC 10). In the same manner, those bound to intellectual positions remain blind to the tactical advantages of mobility and secrecy, and the new war studies will be used to suggest strategic figures outside the position's fortified walls.I will return to the precisely oxymoronic, self-canceling figure of secrecy in a later section. Here, I will proceed by suggesting that the new war studies should come to quite rigorous and unromantic terms with the nomadology of Deleuze and Guattari .[20] In their work, the war machine is essentially exterior to the state, even if the state appropriates it . The problem is, therefore, how to pursue exteriority in disciplinary and epistemological structures that are themselves entirely defined by their institutional interiority. It will certainly not be through any of the current specular and spectacular modes of narcissistic identification with the "other." One should treat every text that peddles its vicarious nomadism while elaborating the most conventional analyses with the greatest suspicion, and at the same time with some confidence, perhaps quite groundless, that an intellectual nomadology might still be carried out elsewhere .[21] It is necessary to comprehend the force of extremely difficult ideas: the nomadic war-machine's exteriority to the state and its precise relation to battle; the nomads' territorial engagement with smooth space, without "striation," interiority, or chrono-historical organization; their indifference to semiological systems and their particular epistemological orientations (ornament instead of sign, ballistics and metallurgical science, numbering, speed, etc.); the strange relation of A A Thousand Plateaus to texts that would seem to treat the same matters in a more disciplinary way -- its relation, for instance, to psychoanalysis and philosophy (and what is the strategic connection between this book and Deleuze's extraordinary and i n many ways quite scholarly treatme nts of the history of philosophy?); indeed, the very ontology of the nomadic idea itself: all of these must be explored in considerable detail, without ever descending to any merely exe getical commentary, and without reducing what is at stake in this book to an intellectual position. Deleuze and Guattari challenge us to rethink our whole relation to books and to writing, to the very order of our thought -- a task in which they themselves often fail. One must begin by reading them at a loss, but a loss that is not only the result of their work's difficulty, which careful analysis would eventually overcome; rather, a loss that reaches down into our deepest epistemological attachments. It will be necessary, for instance, to reconceive the very notion of intellectual rigor (the order of argument, demonstration, proof) and communicative clarity: not to abandon them for the sake of some impressionistic indulgence, but to relocate them outside the striated space of the state apparatus that has always provided their structure. One might find oneself, for instance, no longer putting forth positions, outlining, defending, and identifying oneself with them: one might find oneself engaged in an even more severe, more rigorous discipline of affirming ideas without attaching oneself to them, making them appear (as Baudrillard suggested in another context) only so as to make them disappear.

WGLF 2005 AT: HABERMAS THE NOTION OF “IDEAL SPEECH” ONLY SERVES TO DEFINE UNACCEPTABLE SPEECH, CREATING THE POSSIBILITY OF NORMALIZATION AND EXCLUSION KULYNYCH IN 1997 (JESSICA, Performing politics: Foucault, Habermas, and postmodern participation Polity, Winter 1997 v30 n2) Even such a sophisticated and sensitive approach to ideal speech as Benhabib's cannot cleanse communicative action of its exclusivity. It is not only that acquiring language is a process of mastering a symbolic heritage that is systematically gendered, but the entire

attempt to set conditions for "ideal speech" is inevitably exclusive. The model of an ideal speech situation establishes a norm of rational interaction that is defined by the very types of interaction it excludes. The norm of rational debate favors critical argument and reasoned debate over other forms of communication. (29) Defining ideal speech inevitably entails defining unacceptable speech. What has been defined as unacceptable in Habermas's formulation is any speech that is not intended to convey an idea. Speech evocative of identity, culture, or emotion has no necessary place in the ideal speech situation, and hence persons whose speech is richly colored with rhetoric, gesture, humor, spirit, or affectation could be defined as deviant or immature communicators. communicators. Therefore, a definition of citizenship based on participation in an ideal form of interaction can easily become a tool for the exclusion of deviant communicators from the category of citizens. This sort of normalization creates citizens as subjects of rational debate.

HABERMAS’ IDEAL SPEECH SITUATION IS IMPOSSIBLE: IT DOES NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE DISCIPLINARY EFFECTS OF DISCURSIVE EXCHANGE, AND IS THEORIZED IN AN EXCEEDINGLY ABSTRACT WAY THAT PREVENTS IT FROM BEING USEFUL. KULYNYCH IN 1997 (JESSICA, Performing politics: Foucault, Habermas, and postmodern participation Polity, Winter 1997 v30 n2) As Habermas describes, "every encounter in which actors do not just observe each other but take a second-person attitude, attitude, reciprocally attributing communicative communicative freedom to each other, unfolds in a linguistically constituted public space."(20) Thus, the concerns that political scientists have had about unequal resource distribution and its effect on one's capability to act are mitigated in Habermas's broad definition of discursive participation. Even though limited resources may prevent active interventions in decisionmaking and policymaking processes, for Habermas the "communicative structures of the public sphere relieve the public o f the burden of decisionmaking."(21) In a similar vein, Habermas does not limit participation to a specific set of activities, but defines it procedurally or contextually. Participation Participation is not limited to traditional activities such as voting, campaigning, or letter-writing, but is instead designated by the discursive quality of the activity. In other words, it is not the intent to influence policy that defines participation, but rather the communication structure in which the activity takes place. That communication structure must be equitable and inclusive, social problems must be openly and rationally deliberated, and they must be thematized by people potentially affected. However,

Habermas's discursive formulation is inadequate primarily because it does not explicitly and rigorously attend to the disciplinary effects of contemporary societies explained so creatively by Foucault. Habermas has been routinely criticized for ignoring the productive nature of contemporary power. His juxtaposition of system and life-world in The Theory of Communicative Action relies on a separation of good power from bad (communicative power v. steering media), and posits an ideal speech situation freed from the distortions of power. (22) More importantly, Habermas's Habermas's theorization of discursive participation is exceedingly abstract and does not adequately attend to the ways in which power informs discourse.

Behind the genocide of the holocaust lay a dehumanized thought; beneath the menticide of deviants and dissidents... in the cuckoo's next of America, lies a dehumanized image of man... (Montagu (Montagu & Matson, 1983, p. xi-xii). While it may never be possible to quantify quantify the impact dehumanizing ethics may have had on humanity, it is safe to conclude the foundations of humanness offer great opportunities which would be foregone. foregone. When we calculate the actual losses and the virtual virtual benefits, we approach a nearly inestimable value greater than any tools which we can currently use to measure it. Dehumanization is nuclear war, environmental apocalypse, and international genocide. When people become things, they become dispensable. When people are dispensable, any and every atrocity can be justified. Once justified, they seem to be inevitable for every epoch has evil and dehumanization is evil's most powerful weapon.

WGLF 2005 BUSH EXTENSIONS ( _ ) AT: THERE HAS TO TO BE A REASONABLE EXPLANATION FOR THIS. WASHINGTON INSIDERS SAY OTHERWISE. OR AT LEAST THEY HAVEN’T FOUND IT YET. WEINGARTEN – 00 [GENE – WASHINGTON POST STAFF WRITER – 12/27]

First, don't panic. There is probably a good explanation for the mystery of the photographs, something that does not threaten the enslavement and/or extermination of mankind. There has to be a benign explanation. I just haven't found it yet.

( _ ) AT: THOSE AREN’T THE *SAME* POSE. THEY ARE IDENTICAL POSES. BECAUSE THEY ARE IDENTICAL PICTURES OF BUSH IN HIS DEFAULT SETTING. WEINGARTEN – 00 [GENE – WASHINGTON POST STAFF WRITER – 12/27]

The first photograph appeared in The Washington Post on Dec. 18. In it, the presidentelect stands behind and to the side of Condoleezza Rice, his nominee for national security adviser. George W. Bush is slightly out of focus. His head is cocked to the left and tilted slightly backward, his mouth downturned in a perfect cartoonish crescent, the way a firstgrader might draw a frown. His eyes are squinty. The next photograph appeared in this paper two days later. In it, the president-elect stands behind and to the side of Alberto R. Gonzalez, his choice for White House counsel. George W. Bush is slightly out of focus. His head is cocked to the left and tilted slightly backward, his mouth downturned in a perfect, cartoonish crescent, the way a first-grader might draw a frown. His eyes are squinty. It is not a similar pose; it is an identical pose. It is not a similar expression; it is the identical expression.

WGLF 2005 REPTILES DA TO THE U.N. TOPIC 1NC A) UNIQUE LINK: Currently the Illuminati agenda is unfulfilled. However, the farcical move to initiate peacekeeping operations in Africa is precisely the technique that shores up reptilian power. African conflict is orchestrated orchestrated by the reptilian illuminati and the plan is the final step in the reptilian playbook. The plan allows the reptilians to access inter-dimensional gateways and increase their power. ICKE – 00 [David - http://www http://www.davidicke.net .davidicke.net/newsroom/africa /newsroom/africa/congo/022400a.html /congo/022400a.html]] As I have outlined in The Biggest Secret, the Illuminati has an agenda to bring Africa to it's knees in an explosion of conflict and war, a fact confirmed to me by people like the Zulu shaman, Credo Mutwa, Mutwa , who has seen this coming for a long time (See The Reptilian Agenda video, part two, for the background). As I say in the book, and previous ones, the idea is to create the conflict as an excuse to send in UN and NATO forces to "keep the peace". The UN vote about the Congo is yet another confirmation of this. Africa has been a focus for the reptilian bloodlines since ancient times. The reptilian "gods", which the Sumerian tablets call the Anunnaki, operated extensively in the continent of Africa and it continues to be an area of enormous importance to them for many reasons - incredible natural "resources", of which the Congo is a wonderful example (hence the war), and because of the inter-dimensional "gateways" and immensely powerful earth-energy vortexes that can be found in Africa. This incredible continent should be rich beyond measure, abundant in food and trade in a stream of commodities, but the Illuminati find it far more difficult to manipulate and control abundance and harmony than they do scarcity and conflict. Hence Africa has been plaqued by war and economic take-over which has kept the people divided and ruled and in hunger and poverty in a continent which could feed itself many, many, times over. Under the constantly played technique of create-the-problem-and-then-offer-the-solutio create-the-problem-and-then-offer-the-solution, n, the Illuminati can now send in their United Nations forces forces to the Congo, Congo, just as they have with their NATO troops in places like Bosnia and Kosovo.

WGLF 2005 B) THE BIGGEST IMPACT IN THE TUBS: Reptilian domination is global tyranny via mind control, sex crimes, and mass genocide, which turns the case.

The reptilians make full use of what American Military War Colleges refer to as a "Force Multiplier." In this case, it is mayhem, sexual predation, ritual murder and Genocide by PROXY. Rather than go to the trouble of manifesting in full physical density and having to individually rape, torture and perpetrate genocide upon countless humans, the reptilians manipulate individual humans as well as entire societies and nations to do the work for them. This is an important point to understand. The reptilians will manipulate individual males into becoming serial sex offenders and serial murderers and on a macro level, they will inculcate notions of racial purity and racial superiority into entire cultures which then serves as the basis and justification for those same cultures to perpetrate Genocide upon other races and societies deemed "inferior" or "sub-human." If we as a Species ever hope to move beyond the control of the draco-reptilian draco-reptilian overlords, we must first recognize the massive deception that has been foisted upon us. We must understand that notions of racial purity and racial superiority are inherently reptilian modalities. These reptilian modalities than provide the justification for individuals and entire cultures to perpetrate mayhem and slaughter upon their fellow humans. This serves to further the reptilian's ultimate goal of a Global Tyranny because often as not United Nations troops become embroiled in the various regional conflicts. Those of us within the research community must be willing to point out the absurd fallacies of the reptilian propagandist and New Age Globalist. Starry eyed New Agers display the same kind of misplaced enthusiasm that so many young intellectual Communists displayed in the 1920's and 1930's during the worst of the Bolshevik Revolution's excesses. We must come to grips with the fact that the worst atrocities perpetrated by humans throughout history has been the end result of Reptilian of Reptilian manipulation.

WGLF 2005 CONGO LINK The conflict in Congo is a fabrication – it’s just a stepping stone to world domination set down by the reptilian illuminati. ICKE – 00 [David - http://www http://www.davidicke.net .davidicke.net/newsroom/africa /newsroom/africa/congo/022400a.html /congo/022400a.html]] The war has drawn many "sides" into conflict. The Congo government, led by President Laurent Kabila, and supported by Angola, Namibia, and Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe, has been been pitted against "opposition" forces forces supported by Rwanda Rwanda and Uganda. It is worth noting that Zimbabwe on one "side" is headed by the British place-man, Robert Mugabe, who has massive personal investments in the Congo, and on the other "side" is Uganda, which has long been recognised as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Britain in Africa. It was from Uganda that the London headquarters of the Illuminati orchestrated the genocide in Rwanda and Burundi, Burundi , not least through the manipulations of Henry Kissinger and his sidekick, the Bilderberg Group chairman, Lord Carrington. And it was Carrington was the British Foreign Secretary who handed power in Zimbabwe to the ludicrous and murderous figure of Robert Mugabe (see And The Truth Shall Set You Free for the background). In other words all "sides" in the Congo conflict are controlled by the same force. So what's new?

The third method of Genocidal Rape Warfare involves Bosnian-Herzogovinian and Croation women being repeatedly raped whilst in detention until they become pregnant. The women are held in detention until such time as it is too late for the women to safely obtain an abortion. The women are not only physically abused and tortured but psychologically abused as well. They are told throughout their ordeal that they have been impregnated and will have a Serbian child. Upon being released they are told by the Serbians that if they ever tell anyone about what happened to them, they and their families will be killed. It goes without saying that all sorts of cruelty is perpetrated upon the women and young girls girls held in these these rape-death camps. camps. Many of the survivors survivors have stated stated that the rapes rapes and the rape-torture which precedes murder is often videotaped by the perpetrators. The evidence that this is going on in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia is overwhelming and yet nothing has been done about it. Indeed, it has been alleged by survivors that UNITED NATIONS TROOPS have actually taken part in these rapes within the rape camps. This should give one pause for thought when you consider that United Nations forces may one day be conducting "Peace Enforcement" operations in America. I believe at the deepest darkest levels of the United Nations, tacit approval has been given to the Serbs to continue this atrocious policy of Genocidal Rape Warfare. I believe the reason for that is the United Nations are controlled by the same reptilian overlords that are responsible for the Rape-Death Camps in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia.

Their presence has been witnessed in every corner of the Earth by people from all walks of life. Now that we have established the fact that they are here, the next question to address is: Where are they coming from? Theories as to the origin of reptilian "alien" life forms range appear to be threefold. From the accumulative evidence provided to thus far, it has been determined that they are either: a) Extra-Terrestrial beings from another planet or star system b) Inner Terrestrial beings that are naturally evolved terrestrial Earth life forms that reside in inner earth Caverns, sub-cities, and underwater bases c) Inner-Dimensional - other alien entities existing in vibrational levels - time/space travelers Although a large amount of data supporting each theory exists, this report will only address the basic facts regarding each. It is important to realize that, even though each theorized origin appears to be distinct in it's own right, all three theories could be, and are probably, correct.

Now in recent years 'Patriot' organizations have been warning of a possible "RED DAWN" takeover of the U.S. by Socialist UNITED NATIONS troops who NOW HAVE AN INCREASING ARMY OF U.N. TROOPS "IN TRAINING" TRAINING " within the borders of the United States. (If such a take-over attempt were to occur, we would suggest that the UNITED NATIONS complex in New York City increase it's security by at least a thousand fold to defend itself from the retaliation that would follow. Let's just say that there is an entire 'Army' of grassroots Patriots waiting-in-the-wings waiting-in-the-wings to defend America from such a threat if or when such an invasion is attempted). attempted). The Bavarian "National" Socialists who ultimately control the U.N., such as the Trilaterals, are reportedly reportedly tied-in with the reptilian gray empire, so it is doubtful that any resistance to the invaders will come through the Trojanhorse United Nazis (er, excuse us... United Nations!). Such a 'war' may be the grand finale of a series of outward Machiavellian Machiavellian 'conflicts' which the Bavarian Empire has allegedly 'arranged' between nations over the centuries for the purpose of simply keeping the human race in the state of disorder, chaos, confusion and fear which is so necessary to ensure the final goal -- an absolute electronic dictatorship in which every human being will be 'tagged' and branded like cattle with an electronic chip implant which will make them the absolute spiritual, mental and physical slaves of the 'New World Order'.

This is the reason reason that such such programs as Adbusters’-brand Adbusters’-brand culture jamming don’t work: work: because because mocking powerful corporate symbols as such only reinforces their power. Making fun of symbols does not, in any way, debunk, undermine or question the corporations’ right to define them. By continuing to ignore the question of whether or not we agree to their power, we agree to it. Worse, we support their right to it. The challenge to activists is to stop mucking about and thinking of funny plays on the phrase “Just Do It”. Instilling in themselves and others the understanding that the definitions of such symbols are agreed to, and therefore can be rejected or changed, is one way for activists to begin the process of uprooting corporate power.

Adbusters and other advocacy To Lasn, the networks' refusal broadcasts their fear of his message. He believes that if Adbusters advertisers had the same access to the airwaves as General Motors and Calvin Klein, product marketers would end up substantially reducing their own TV advertising. To validate his vision, Lasn refers to the showdown that occurred between antismoking ads and cigarette commercials in the late '60s after the FCC ordered broadcasters who aired cigarette commercials to run opposing viewpoints for free. "Those antismoking ads were so potent that, ultimately, the industry couldn't compete," recounts Lasn. "Every time you were watching one of those pro-smoking ads, you just started snickering because they just didn't make sense anymore."

Actually, Actually, it was an act of Congress, rather than the antismoking antismoking ads, that forced cigarette commercials off television. television. And ultimately, that move did little to hinder the tobacco industry's advertising efforts; it just spent more on other media. Ironically, cigarette sales increased dramatically in 1971, the first year of the cigarette-ad ban, probably because antismoking commercials, which had indeed caused a decline in cigarette consumption, could no longer be aired for free. Still, if we are to learn anything from the cigarette-ad battle, battle, it's that the most likely industry response response to uncommercials would would be to simply air more commercials -- in the realm of political advertising, has one attack ad ever failed to spawn a rebuttal? rebuttal ? To be sure, escalation is a poor excuse for censorship; Lasn has as much a right to the airwaves as do his counterparts at Honda and GM. But how excited are we supposed to get about the notion that anticonsumerist arguments can be trivialized with the same smug, soundbitten language that graces Bud Light and Camel ads? Lasn's paradigmatic cigarette cigarette ads are again a case in point. Taking for granted that kids start smoking because tobacco companies have convinced them that smoking is "cool," modern antismoking ads simply promote not smoking as being even cooler . What gets lost in the exchange is that being "cool" is a pretty flimsy reason to do anything. In short, advertising may indeed be the operative language of the modern world, but it's a fairly limited idiom, designed to make you feel rather than think. For those whose message is simple -- Buy me! -- the language of advertising works beautifully. For those trying to express a more complicated idea, it's less effective. Of course, parodies and publicity stunts (such as the soundbite-ready flacktivism of Buy Nothing Day) are effective as baitand-switch tactics: You hook them with punch lines and eye candy, then educate them after you have their attention. But are the Absolut vodka ad collectors who call up Adbusters in search of its parodies of the well-known ad ca mpaign sticking around for such schooling? And wouldn't it be just as effective if the funky-fresh brandinistas of the world simply applied black electrical tape to their eyes instead of their logos? In the end, is virtuous mindlessness mindlessness better than materialistic mindlessness?
