In France and elsewhere, everyday insecurity hurts the poor much more than the rich.
Zizek has written a silly article.
Slavoj Žižekkk
Every month or so, like clockwork, somebody posts some zizek shit that seems somehow more unfathomably stupid than the last time. Somebody should do a wellness check on this fella. He’s either leaning really hard into his role as the clown contrarian of the left, or his brain is being literally devoured by some kind of ravenous fungus and he needs a doctor.
eating too much from the trashcan of ideology is bad for your health
Zizek is the master of having exactly the wrong take on any given situation. That’s dialectics baby
Why is it still surprising that zizek has shit take?
He never liked movements like BLM and what is happening in France (I let you people figure out why)
He is a pro EU person. In fact he said that even the most right wing EU policies are more socialistic than any actual socialist stalinist states in Asia
Anti-trans pro-EU pro-NATO anti-Soviet but he proudly tells a story about how he used to have a picture of Stalin in his house so he’s obviously a communist
Jordan Peterson also had a portrait of Stalin in his house for some strange suppressed psychosexual reason. Zizek and JP didn’t really have all that much to debate over
True comrades doesn’t need to hang Stalin portraits in their homes as they keep Stalin in their hearts.
Likes Stalin, but only for the ethnic deportations & recriminialisation of homosexuality.
why did people ever think zizek was cool
or was it just that no one could understand him but he sounded like he could be a leftist because he was unintelligible and verbose

“Pervert’s Guide to Ideology,” mainly. Also this one.
damn that’s a great clip
It is, I quote it (and the They Live sequence) pretty often because they are very useful perspectives for parsing living in neoliberalism.
