“Democracy is nothing less than defined by critique.”*
George Pavlich writes that…
one usually … reform, and so on.*
However,
“Moreover, a privileged … democracy) is thriving *

Pavlich Uses The Term “Grammar of Judgment” to describe an underlying grammar:
the tri-umphant wailing ….some or other yardstick. *

The affirmative judges their strategy against the criteria established by their impact calculus. Specifically, the imperative to—
[           ]

This might seem obvious.  After all, What can be wrong with normative judgment against normalizing structures?
But Perhaps You Should Ask a Different Question.
Is holding “firm ….within disciplinary regimes”?*
Pavlich writes that even  “criticism of disciplinary …. truth regimes”.*

Pre-determined research methods shut down the radical possibilities of our encounters.
We instead invite the “Unexpected and Unpredictable: Learning from Being Lost”

Is this a judgment against judgment? Perhaps, But We Do NOT Offer External Criteria Against Which to Judge the 1AC. We Instead Test the 1AC’s Coherence—Discerning an Implicit Double Turn:
They deploy normative judgment against judgments of normativity. 

Judgment is not the only alternative. Pavlich Writes That Critique’s Etymology Opens Up:
to judge, but … and decide.*
We “imagine images of ….in dividing”*

“Divide the 1AC Into Two Piles.
Welcome The 1AC’s Imperative to Overcome the Limitations of Status Quo Approaches to Democracy Assistance. Set Aside the 1AC Impact Calculus as Justification for their Advocacy.”
We gesture towards a new grammar of critical encounter. Pavlich describes it as:
“a unique sort … persist intact.”*

The experiences suppressed by the status quo are their own justification.
Suspending Judgment on 1AC Criteria Builds Affective Capacities for Political Engagement.
We call on the judge to vote for their advocacy to affirm the democratic subject already existing in yemen external from the justifications the 1ac uses.
