Their reliance on economic rationality presupposes a neoliberal form of subjectivity that they superimpose upon the world in order to justify mass violence and homogenization.  This also makes transition wars and economic collapse inevitable, as it fails to understand how the crucial problem today is one of symbolic exchange.  Against this, we should withdraw from necronomics.

Bifo 11 – (Franco, “After the Future,” ed. Genesko & Thoburn, AKPress, p. 141-7)

More than ever, economic rationality… fabric of language and imagination.

As capitalism withers away we must save desire and autonomy by withdrawing from impositions like the maintenance of a neoliberal subject.  We must use the current recession as an opportunity to proliferate singularities as self creative processes capable of retaining value and sustaining freedom.

Sado-Monetarism Link

The time of a rational economy has come and gone.  Economic science is problematized by the infusion of ressentiment and abuse-exchange into the economy.  The sadistic economy of rational values turns us all into slaves.

Wiltgen 05 – (James, “Sado-Monetarism or Saint Fond-Saint Ford,” in Consumption in the Age of Information, ed. Cohen and Rutsky, Berg, New York, p. 100-3)

One way in which to…the individual and the system.

Will to Will Link

Aff embraces a form of capitalism in which all of humanity is enframed under the umbrella of rationality.  With the death of god, the affirmative turns to economic science in a will-to-will that reduces the world to a standing reserve.

Wiltgen 05 – (James, “Sado-Monetarism or Saint Fond-Saint Ford,” in Consumption in the Age of Information, ed. Cohen and Rutsky, Berg, New York, p. 98-100)

On an analytical level, one… by tendencies of unrelenting affirmation.

2NC Impact

Focus on rational economic science has created a bloodthirsty form of capitalism which attempts to erase affect and makes violence inevitable.  Neoliberalism constantly produces crisis to demonstrate its capacity for control.  While this system focuses on total peace, its hatred of uncertainty makes the destruction of all life immanent.

How does digital capitalism intertwine… their dense and complex oscillations.

No New affs because of eternal return

Self doesn’t exist (sorites paradox)

The threat of nuclear war puts us in a glass coffin which makes us yearn for nuclear extermination – Baudrillard 88

The hostage is the 1AC.  3-0 and 130 speaker points and everything.  The system cannot respond--we are scorpion poison.  Baudrillard 76.

Hostage taking is radical denial of negotiating

Negotiation between difference conceals the radical alterity of terrorism.  Baudrillard 97.

Debate is good, but their enframing of state solutions makes us more passive.  Antonio 95.

Life is hereclitian flux.  Fernando 10

Humanitarian impacts are just a cover for humanitarian violence that leads to war.  Baudrillard 96.

Aff doesn’t specify their parameters, it’s severance and intrinsic and a voter.

The continual retracing of the event-Holocaust is itself the final solution, an endless purging of guilt which dissolves the trauma of the event by integrating it into the cold system of deterrence and communication, only to accelerate & proliferate to warm the dead bodies of the social and political

Baudrillard 06 (Simulacra and Simulation, University of Michigan Press, p. 49-51)

Forgetting extermination is part of extermination, because it is also the extermination of […] this confusion will never be lifted.

2NC Least Change Link

Policy debate conception of presumption is intrinsically tied to advocating the idea that the “least change is best”

Rutledge 2000 (Skip, “Government’s Defense of the Status Quo: Advocating a Shift in Applying Presumption Theory in Intercollegiate Policy Debate”)

Archbishop Whately comments on how natural…at least for this form of debate.

Insistence on the hegemony of the status quo locks in the violence of white privilege—the permutation links as an assimiliations practice of the SQ

Patton 2004 (Tracy, “Reflections of a Black Woman Professor”, Howard Journal of Communication

The environment created is one that is hostile and degrading…the dance between the spectator and the spectace continues.

The category of the “new” that underscores their theory of presumption must be subjected to scrutiny: an ontology of status-quoism underwrites it
