Just for context: in the ESL semis the day before, the motion was "This House Hopes that the future of humanity is transhumanism". Sofia A [CO here] were CG, and refuted a case coming fron CO in that room that stated suffering is good. Before refuting it, they acknowledged they would have ran that case in that position. True to their word, they ran this exact case in the Open Final and took the win. Well deserved.
I always revisit member of opp speech from time to time. So gooddf
Try not to set a final motion about whether life is good or not challenge (*impossible*)
Should make it a point to check up on the adj core sometimes lol
That's not entirely fair, there's also finals motions about if utilitarianism is good (and then based on that whether life is good or not)
What a hard notion to defend! Hard to come up with arguments not based in emotion, particularly fear, anger or sorrow.
