  1. I have no idea what the rest of video is so this just comes across as extremely fucked and twisted? It doesn’t matter to me because I know Zizek isn’t an idiot, but the clip makes him look like one. Why would you even make this?

  3. I'm pretty fond of The Žiž, but eschewing all long term social, economic, and ecological concerns for a singular eruption of Noble Libidinal Violence is the most Not New thing people like Putin's cadre of Duginist weirdos could have come up with.

    And that's not to say that the Western allies of Ukraine haven't leapt on opportunities to do the same; hollering on about Russia as the modern Oriental Horde bearing down on the civilized West, potentially with Chinese allies in tow- pretending the Russian people are an Orcish singular hive mind and not 86ing Recruiters.

    But in neither case is this anything new

  4. Oh ok. So a communist thinks this war will create the proliferation of critical theory. Great. Thought this was about ‘freedom and democracy’ or whatever. Seems the west has flipped tables with Leninist Russia.

  5. in fact, the conservatives in Europe agree with the ideology of Russia: they deny global warming fight against, LGBT rights – they fight for "traditional family", they do not like mee too movement, they do not like civil society. For them liberalism, or liberty is bigger enemy than even Russia that occupies Ukraine.
