It is often said that Western donors are

Rule of Law, Civil Society, and Governance
Violation: Democracy assistance is not the development of social media that effectually increases democracy. It is assistance with the direct and explicit intent to enhance democracy.

Predictable Limits: Developmental interpretations of democracy assistance justifies programs that are tangentially related to democracy, making an infinite amount of affs possible or ridiculously minute and arbitrary affirmatives like assassinating Saleh topical.

Network politics exacerbates power imbalances which are unpredictable and dangerous – democracy is the necessary political and social reform necessary for the alt to garner solvency and avert their impacts

Attempts to achieve actual democracy simply engage in a totalitarian catastrophe

It is crucial to perceive the link between

Democracy is based on an elitist notion of value
Zizek in 2005
(Slavoj, Objet a as Inherent Limit to Capitalism, The Symptom Volume 6, spring, http://www.lacan.com/zizmultitude.htm []) 

There is a whole series of concrete questions
AND
in the strict dialectical sense of the term. 

The fantasy that we are the omniscient masters who can conquer and defeat the violence that permeates our internal order plagues the affirmatives attempt at progress. The ideology of capitalist rationality structure this fundamental fantasy to overcome the psychic death drive. Only confrontation with this desire can radically break from the psychic cycle of violence. 

Zizek, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Social Studies, Ljubljana, Slovenia, 1999
(Slavoj, The Ticklish Subject, page 293- 297, ) 

The lesson of drive is that we are
AND
painful experience of repeatedly missing one’s goal. 65
The ideology of the 1AC fills the void of the death drive with a fantasy of truth and goodness, we must instead authentically confront the psychic death drive 

Zizek, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Social Studies, Ljubljana, Slovenia, 1999
(Slavoj, The Ticklish Subject, page 160-161, ) 

In Lacanese, the subject prior to subjectivization
AND
rule of the Truth and/or Goodness. 

Recognition of the death drive abolishes the source of totalitarian temptations – our attempt to articulate a new way of living is the only hope to break away from our violent international order. 

Zizek, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Social Studies, Ljubljana, Slovenia, 1999
(Slavoj, The Ticklish Subject, page 390-391, ) 

On the other hand, against this stupid
AND
totalitarian haven of closed order is profoundly misleading. 

Desire shapes the operation of the social and the direction of their offense.  Linguistic articulation isn’t perfect, something is always left out of what is being described—this is called the Real.  Since the thing we desire is impossible in perfection, we are locked into a cycle of desire that endlessly tries to re-capture the lacking object of our desire.  

Stavrakakis 99 (Yannis, Teaching Fellow at the Dept of Gov’t at Essex, Lacan and the Political, p 34shree)

What should be stressed at this point
AND
that’s exactly why we keep longing for it.

Prefer our method—it’s historically accurate in the context of politics—analyzing the social without desire can’t account for ethical modes of violence
