Vietnam WUDC 2024 Semifinal - Oxford, Stanford, NUS, Dartmouth
Motion: This House would ban vulture funds from suing countries whose debt they have purchased.
Infoslide: A vulture fund is fund that invests in sovereign debt that a government is refusing to pay back (distressed debt). It buys this debt from the original debt holder at a discount, and then aggressively pursues (often through litigation) the government to pay off the debt at a higher price than what the vulture fund purchased the debt for.
OG: Oxford A (Aniket Chakravorty [0:01] & Mark Rothery [7:18])
OO: Stanford A (Jubayer Hamid [did not consent to recording] & Tejas Subramaniam [15:35])
CG: NUS A (Cavan Tay [24:00] & Naomi Ang [41:16])
CO: Dartmouth A (Ryan Lafferty [32:30] & Madeleine Wu [49:48])
Result: OG and OO advance.

Is Will Jones' speech redacted or was it an error in the upload?
"opposition builds monuments to perfection on the blood of the trampled. They give a few dead men a stranglehold not over just the nation's identity but its very moral fabric". His speech is art, his speech is poetry, tobi is the greatest debater i know.

@@nicoleelangoldstein Nicole is correct. I started doing old debate friend zooms during the pandemic and have kept them going. Dave Friedman and I are still close friends --- he's with the Red Sox and I'm at the USAO SDNY. Inspired by randomly seeing these posts years later, we had Jason Brent and Tom Meehan on last night's Zoom. It was great seeing everyone again.
great debate!

I’m so proud of the Bulgarian team
Honestly, I’m a bit let down by the quality of organisation on the side of social publicity. WUDC 2016, which is like 7 years old has better video and audio. This is appalling
Matt Caito … being allocated towards traditional forms of journalism and institutions that produce press The reason why this is true is that as the widespread consumption of citizen journalism has precipitated increased production of it as producers strive to meet demand. This is why particular production has created the incentives and norms for individual citizens to produce more of this kind of journalism we think that therefore it likely means that insofar as that consumption does not happen other sources take that place secondly we think insofar as consumption represents time dedicated towards reading collecting and analyzing citizen journalism that people are engaging with people probably spend the time that they're spending engaging with that citizen journalism elsewhere in so far as people are inherently curious and have a drive to find out information in the world and so on we think they likely means they revert to more traditional forms of news sources as well thirdly insofar as there's likely still demand for authenticity in reporting and there is a revealed preference of stories that citizen journalists break because they happen to be well placed them like if they're on the ground in a major city when an event is happening like a terrorist attack or a war we think would likely still be efforts to cater to that demographic insofar as people have a real preference for that kind of reporting so this looks like things like more embedded reporting more summaries of these things like ethnographies more reporting on the ground through major news organizations and attempt to try to get boots on the ground in places like combat zones and so on and so forth
crucially and the absence of the rise of these things which already exists these things would get more traction insofar as people try to seek out the nearest thing to it and so far as the rise did not happen *get more traction = becoming more popular What we think “the rise” specifically look like is the accompanying credibility …:what has happened in terms of the rise is on aggregate, significantly more of it has been produced than it has been in the past and the accompanying rising Norms of it has increased credibility generated towards it I think the best government (I think he meant opposition) argument in this debate is to say citizen journalism is really important in some instances because individuals can see how like situations on the ground are unfolding in places like Ukraine when it's at war in the media aftermath of 9/11 because sometimes it isn't journalists are placed really well to like respond to things and this produces good information (2 responses) + One I think that's all challenging and destructive. Often this distorts rather than provides good information but + secondly insofar as there's demand for these kinds of things the counter factual framing that I've just given like … that to an extent [Argument 1:] Why do we get better funded investing reporting and why do we think that's good ~Before I go on I'll take the clarification from closing POI from CO: This debate is going to be very messy if you do not tell us what citizen reporting is and like give a few examples of it so we know what we're doing Matt response: It says in the info slide it's like when citizens do reporting and then publish those articles online independently or they get picked up by news platforms it says so in the info slide~
Moving on why do we get better funded investigator reporting and why is that good + the reason this point is important good and accurate journalism gives people information that they can act on with confidence as opposed to misinformation that distorts reality +The reason why accurate information is good is because accurate information allows me to make decisions about my life and act upon those things I increase my agency which leads the ability for me to access my idea of what is good + The second reason this point is important is insofar as the rises in journalism precipitate a direct and specific trade-off in terms of the credibility of news we think that's been quite problematic. The rise of this trend means that you saw citizen journalists being viewed with increased credibility and the rise also means that you saw companies funding this publishing this and as it had a direct trade-off with better investigative reporting. What this has meant is that you've had an active time trade-off with the engagement with better forms of journalism that is both more accurate and more investigative and provide better utility to society in terms of increasing agency There are three ways this has happened (this = time trade-off with investigative reporting) + Firstly insofar as there has been this direct trade-off between investigative reporting and citizen journalism -> less funding for investigative reporters -> they break generally fewer big stories since it's much harder to do when there are fewer resources being allocated for do you can't chase as many news stories or pursue as many individual leads as you might like when your paper is cutting back on the amount of funding that they're giving to you because a. trade-off in terms of funding and b. there's been less demand for those kind of things + secondly papers get less resources and put less resources to these kinds of things because they don't generate things like revenue streams clicks, they platform citizen journalists instead that's highly problematic insofar as they put less resources towards the developing of these stories in the first place preemptively so even if other people are currently still researching those things on the ground they're less likely to do so in the future
+ thirdly, papers are prompted to cut costs and these things often go first because they've seen as less essential and it's easier for like a news aggregator website that platforms news stories around the internet to platform of random citizen journalists and so far as it's popular and beloved as opposed to another form of in engagement The impact of all of this is that you get + firstly just less accurate information but also less good investigative reporting as well insofar as many of these journalists break high profile news stories like the hashtag metoo movement for example: these news stories happen less frequently which is individuals on aggregate let's get less often good information in general this also means that independent journalists and small journalists news organizations that currently obviously cannot compete with large news organizations like the New York Times or CNN but do have a specific niche on the ground in a local community also get out competed quite quickly because insofar as they adhere to specific standards like journalistic integrity they're less able to do so and less able to like access funding as now they have direct competition with these citizen journalists who get a greater degree of consumption. These organizations necessarily die the fastest insofar as they have the least amount of budgets and get cut the most + secondly the faith and credibility in journalism note that the rising consumption has created a trend of more people doing the citizen journalism in order to meet demand Why is citizen journalism actively quite bad and here I'll elaborate a little bit more on what it often looks like in order to POI + firstly citizen journalists often take risks reporters wouldn't they're therefore more likely to get themselves into dangerous situations like embedding themselves in a war zone without the necessary precautions taken in the first place + secondly they don't have institutional support from a news organization and so on which means in the pursuit of a story if they get into trouble I either have to fail a lawsuit
or they break a contract they violate the Integrity of the source they don't have the requisite tools to cope with that kind of thing going into the future which means they're likely to when they take risks being significantly greater pecuniary (relating to or connected with money) troubles and also being significantly greater trouble in terms of actually being able to actively follow up on the story which means they're more likely to publish things like misinformation and they're more likely to not be able to fact check their sources as comprehensively as a major news organization can + thirdly they can't protect source confidentiality this means fewer people talk to them fewer people are likely to want to engage in the kind of Journalism that they do which means it's just vastly more likely that these people just don't engage to the same degree + fourthly they don't have regulations on their behavior to the same extent there aren't Norms within corporate newsrooms to the same degree that prohibit certain forms of conduct. This means in so far as the rise of Citizen journalism and everybody believes they can do it as precipitated things like harassment campaigns and Tick Tock like on Tick Tock under the guise of Citizen journalism and so far it's pumping more people and engaging like independent investigative reporting that has led to privacy violations of people like during the whole Brian Landry investigation when they started like I don't know harassing his parents on social media and things like that and interfere with active FBI investigation or anything that's probably quite bad what this does is not ideal in terms of faith and credibility in the media undermines the degree to which people who engage with these media sources in order to gain trust in them feel that this media is credible in in and of itself insofar as there's less credibility in these types of reporting because the type of reporting that they do is necessarily quite bad we think the faith and credibility in the media goes down in general Why is this counter factual better I think firstly just the norms and journalistic standards that corporate newsrooms have are significantly better in terms of accesses to resources in terms of Regulation about what they're able to do and resources to help field litigation on behalf of reporters investigate and you end up in a dire situation.
Look, ultimately what the Horizon citizen journalists has done is cause competition that has killed smaller news organizations put individual citizens in danger and in its worst cases precipitated violent harassment and all kinds of other problems we're very proudest in opening governmentso
wow debate has changed so much
Solo: Hook: When's the monkey god valesim but tells Rama the Hindu all-knowing god that he's honored to have sins because it makes him better.That’s a more accurate portrayal of humanity allows humanity to be more forgiving to themselves and to other individuals and decreases loyalty and blind loyalty to ideology which creates greater nuances in critical thinking Descriptions Five things: - Firstly the alternative world probably looks like a world where the predominant religions continue to be Hinduism or Greek. It is not a change tomorrow but has been how the world has looked like based on doctrine and religious writing it can probably still be Christianity but Christianity must change themselves to be like this - Secondly we see God as not uniquely in Mighty but as a mirror instead of how humans can redeem themselves can be set on the right paths. To make this debate clear, I ... do we think religion is bad because I think that makes the debate messy, we think on gov it's good when it's a source of hope and inspiration uniquely such as the Hindu goddess of wealth Lakshmi being an inspiration for the Hindu feminist movement or the Greek goddess Artemis as a source of power for modern free women who practice a Greek faith when the individual uniquely has autonomy still and religion is relegated to our role of consultation. This rule requires a lower loyalty to religion as in fact better when they aren't fully dependent on the God as compared to moral infallibility that is when you are saying that gods are all-knowing all present and always the best of morality we think at that point that's when it crosses the threshold of bad because it encourages humanity to forever be dedicated to this God. The lying we draw is that at the point where you make your identity about the defense of their principles the defense of that morality and that morality could be forever perfect and any sin or deviation from this is intrinsically evil that is bad. The problem with this is you hold yourself to the standard of the god and that's why we think it's harmful, things like Christianity telling you you're made in this image and likeness of God and that's why you ought to be perfect or morality being used in status quo to define what is morality within binaries, you intrinsically have to compare yourself to how God's easy to gain religious words Four arguments: 1. Firstly why fallibility allows an individual to be forgiving to themselves EXPLAIN: There are three reasons for why you're likely to condemn yourself on opposition - Primarily because as humans it's impossible to make mistakes firstly humans will likely stray for morality regardless this is a necessity for up to work because you need to make a distinction between very decent for humans as opposed to morally pure Gods at the point where you must make mistakes they view themselves as irredeemable because they help they are healthy the standard of God they are not like Jesus Christ who is like perfect in general -> Compare this to our world where potentially when you speak from humanity it is something you are more willing to forgive yourself for because if Aphrodite she can cheat on her faces but then and find redemption later on and uniquely that's important these Gods create Redemption get punishment by them by Zeus or whoever other deity like Rama for example like release that likely means that this is something you view to actually be a pathway for right - The second reason is that the goal post for morality on Opp are ever changing because it is not just defined in Doctrine but also in practice especially the majority of religious facts are anecdotal that means it's up the interpretation on either side the problem with this on opp is when humans are in control of that interpretation it's a lot easier for you to be exclusive to individuals aging Christianity and Doctrine being utilized against queer people being utilized against women in the past because they utilize the interpretation to demonize these individuals as compared to our world where potentially things like homophobia Etc might still have been around but it might still have existed but it's a lot easier for you to approach it with empathy and kindness because you view the not as people who strayed the path but as individuals who would still want to be redeemed, individuals once will be forgiven and individuals who are just as well in terms of their rights to be like as bad as they honest as were because these individuals are still are able to redeem themselves but - Thirdly, morms are constantly changing and defined by different cultures focusing on retaining a clear-cut moral compass means you will be doing something wrong in one culture if you do something right in another culture,that means it’s impossible for you to not sin under the metric of opposition IMPACTS: There are three major impacts of this: - The first is that on opposition you force a religious guilt on the majority of individuals who subscribe to religion, that's terrible because a) this creates an excessively negative self-perception which means that if you are incredibly religious which is likely to be encouraged on the Opp side because individuals tell you that for you to be freed by sin you ought to believe in God that likely means that you feel like you will never amount to that suffering and that's why you often lead the things like depression or slip into that. b) But certainly even if it doesn't lead to excessive negative self-perception it likely means that individuals will not seek guidance for the God and that's why they're not going to get that inspiration that we outline at the start of a speech . c) But thirdly even if you don't have religious guilt this is used by religions to justify aggressive recruitment as I explained earlier and the reason why that's the case is they want to be able to allow you to redeem yourself under the scope of God that's why if you join the church and give control of your autonomy to priests over your individual decision making you are seen as good. That's problematic because that is uniquely the standard visa to be bad because now individuals are harmed COMPARE: So on your side you may stand there these standards are never proven to actually be good suddenly it allows individuals to be more forgiving to others on our side There are two reasons why you're lucky to be less forgiving on their side and last all around: - Firstly, because as we point that out it's easier to be utilized against other individuals as opposed to our world where even he utilizee, the power of is less important but suddenly even if your God is forgiving you create a hierarchy that you're closer or more moral to God, which means under Opp world you often intrinsically have hierarchy that makes it far worse. That's why things like Greek religions or things like Hinduism for example are less structured and less hierarchical .Only comparative doing sins and mistakes is seen as good and important because things like how like Balisim for example but because it made them better it feels like this is something as part of this development these are things that people are more welcomed towards people are more willing to be discussive towards and people are less reliant on their own morality towards God There are two impacts - Firstly you have increased empathy across individuals but also certainly communities themselves are healthier and nicer that was uniquely good even if like religions are weaker because at least under our side individuals get better forms of self-determination - Thirdly why do you have less loyalty to ideology under our side. So independent of individual experiences why is it better under our side. For example because you feel less of a need to justify and defend the God's best decisions as always right when something bad happens to you in religion you tell yourself this is God's will or when God for example allowed the woman to be small to that in Bible you say that's probably good that means that you are forced to be more loyal to God and be more extreme but all of a secondarily you're less tolerant of different interpretations of it because you're always ought to be a linear God -> in the comparative you decrease religious extremism and violence because you don't need to be as loyal to God and you're more independent I'm not going to say we stop violence in its totality but we at least decrease one level of violence the Opp cannot have but - Lastly and most crucially we create greater nuances in critical thinking. Opp will say that religion is good because of morality I'll say the Greeks had Plato Aristotle and Socrates that allow them to create the dispersive implications of what sin goodness and evil are that's better because there is no hierarchy that places a god up top but instead places a reason at the top and describes implications that allow people to have a more critical faculties and approaching institutions but be a lot more accountability it's not perfect but it's far better than status quo

Nah Prop deserves the win. I knew it was going to be a prop win from the 2nd POI during 1st Prop - he'd just given a detailed explanation of why the right to life supercedes other rights, and yet their POI was about forcibly euthanizing living people? If they can't see why that POI doesn't hurt the prop case, it's going to be really tough for them to overcome the principled right-to-life material in 1P.
I also think it is a huge strategic blunder for Opposition to not counter-prop with an "opt-out" system replacing the "opt-in" systems that are common in status quo. You heavily mitigate most prop material about saving lives (they still get more organs, but the difference is far smaller), and it focuses the debate specifically on the people who choose to opt-out in Opposition's world, making the highest burden part of Prop's case more salient.
