The first link is pity: The aff acts out of a lust for power - The other is another possession to acquire. This

1. forces the creation of more suffering others, turning case, and
   2. makes us hate everything else in the world, which is the root cause of violence
   Nietzsche 82 (The Gay Science 1882, Kaufmann translation. TL)
   The things  people call love.- Avarice and love: what different feelings these two
   AND
   such love? Who has experienced it? Its right name is friendship.

The second link is ressentiment: The aff attempts to bring Apollonian order to a Dionysian world by eliminating all that is foreign and unknown so that it conforms to the rational. Their mindset is the cause of all wars and security discourse.
Huysmans 98 (Huysmans, Jef, Lecturer in Government and Politics at the University of Kent, "Security21 What do You
Mean?", The European Journal of International Relations, vol. 4 no. 2, 1998, p. 235-6)
The threat construction - the externalization of fear - also moderates the level of uncertainty
AND
the state, can appear which mediate and represent our relation to death.

The third link is the morality of the herd:

Morality defines VTL in terms of the individual’s utility to the herd, which justifies the violent extermination of those who subscribe to other moralities. This makes violence inevitable
Nietzsche 82 (1882 The Gay Science, Kaufmann translation. TL)
 Herd instinct.- Wherever we encounter a morality, we also encounter valuations and
AND
yet be very divergent moralities. Morality is herd instinct in the individual.

The alternative is to reject the aff’s call to action and embrace the world as-is. This allows us to find meaning within and escape the cycle of violence
Nietzsche 82 (1882 The Gay Science, Kaufmann translation. TL)
 One thing is needful.- To "give style" to one’s character-
AND
For the sight of what is ugly makes one bad and gloomy. 

Their rush to act before considering ontological questions ensures the errors that led to their impact scenarios will be repeated, making them inevitable
Nietzsche 82 (1882 The Gay Science, Kaufmann translation. TL)
Consciousness.- Consciousness is the last and latest development of the organic and hence also
AND
have incorporated only our errors and that all our consciousness relates to errors.

Contemporary governmentality functions by expanding state control of systems of subjectivity formation where humans are pushed to conduct themselves in ways that are purely rational and calculative- this is monopolitics

Joronen 13 (Mikko Joronen Department of Geography and Geology, Geography Section, University of Turku, Finland (2013): Conceptualising New Modes of State Governmentality: Power, Violence and the Ontological Mono-politics of Neoliberalism, Geopolitics, 18:2, 356-370 Taylor and Francis) GizzyB

Policy making rooted in these governmentalities can only manifest in violent policies. The aff’s impacts are rooted in these making them inevitable.

Vote negative to affirm an ontological resistance to neoliberal governmentality.

The alts representations of the world do not merely speak about it but delimit social action.

The neoliberal state enframes the human will to will more optimal calculations upon themselves creates nihilism
