Cithen posted:he also endorsed trump with the rationale that he would disrupt the consciousness of everyone enough to bring about the end times and since that clearly failed and people just became more insane i understand him chickening out

Ardennes posted:I would say my only real issue with Zizek (probably more than anything because of timing) is him having to couch what he is trying to say in Lacan or post-modern absurdism rather than just spit it out. He lets his actual views slip but it is always a game of him being "provocative" then walking it back into the safety of post-modernism. sure this is true to a degree but i find this to be the frustration of people not understanding there's no direct way to some of the more difficult understanding and i don't mean in the sense of obscurantist bullshit, i mean you have to do it, this is why he tells stories, to engage and provoke, it's to grease the wheels but you have to get end yourself when we're talking about thinking about thinking. or to put it in the hands of a different master https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO0r930Sn_8

Ardennes posted:The issue is his politics, or rather he had to hide his politics. I would say an example is when he is talking ability the Haitian revolution, he is about to say the Polish starters to “fight for the right side” but he has to stop himself. I think it is changing but certainly it does color his conclusions. ask anwar al awlaki or his son or his daughter if hiding zizek hiding his politics was wise
