This alliance topic is fking dumb, all they wanna do is debate their lil war scenarios, throw in bad k ground and lie about relevancy. the nerve to debate the same questions with different words.

And I wanna reaffirm that k teams who do chose to debate will find an abundance of things to study and debate as they have, but common when are we gonna confront the hyper obsession with war topics that must insist on the realities of borders and state legitimacy

The divisions they make that inform the justifications for needing a real “foreign” topic are actually nationalistic + imperialistic and let’s just think of HOW MANY war scenarios they’ve planned and how INACCURATE their calculuses are4 conceptualizing war+ praxis4 intervening

Every topic paper in the last few years has included a section on k affs and every year they still read t usfg, go for the negative action perm and the “but states are really real” argument. It’s all fking dumb and the reach for securing stasis esp in a pandemic is embarrassing
