When I listen to him I feel like I have never had an insightful thought in my life.

Anyone else been on a Žižek binge lately?

I feel such pity for anyone tasked with keeping Zizek within a time limit

1:25:47 ultra rare "they" x9 combo

"Can you imagine living in a shitty society where you have to all the time be engaged in some stupid local problems and participate and so on. I want to live in a society where an invisible network makes things function. I want to have peace to watch my shitty movies, to read books and so on. This is the true challenge. Everyday revolution."

Pretty solid Zizek here, high quality content, fast shipping, would purchase again A+++++

I'm in love with Zizek is that weird

A mixture of comedy and intellectual discussion. gold

I learn english by Zizeks‘ leactures. The accent is so understandable for me and the other russians. Wow!

Zizek 8 years ago- we are entering an era where you won't fall in love and dedicate ourselves to another. We will all be like Judith Butler says and constantly reinvent ourselves and only have one night stands......Damn. He saw coming what people don't even realized has happened.

I can’t believe we were spared the different toilet analogy! What a time to be alive! What a wonderful day and age we live in!

Zizek talked at 1:24:00 about ww3 and he was spot on with the analysis and the situation we are in today. A true intellectual of our times.

The man, the myth, the legend.

what a privilege to be able to listen to this Slovenian miser of a man who probably buys a new shirt just about as often as there's a leftist popular uprising in the world. Love you Zizek, fucking brilliant and hilarious man with invaluable and piercing insights on so many important current topics

Zizek never disappoints, old jokes, NEW links!

its like a treat to listen to him

0:11 the little antics and cartoonish expressions :D

Dr Purna Sen is the best note taker I've ever seen.

Zizek is Great because he destroys what you’re supposed to say. AWESOME!!!

"Without guilt there wouldn't be this movement" "Well, what have you achieved?" would've sufficed, but Zizek's answer was much more insightful of course

"Capitalism today functions better without democracy."Slavoj Zizek. Welcome to Cyberpunk. I loved the "belief without believers also". I think it functions as long as it sells and develops a group identity that gives access to moral superiority without sacrifice (or with a very limited amount of it).

If Zizek was a stock I would buy it

Thanks and love for the interviewer ❤

his points after 45:50 are pretty mind-blowing

i thought he was going to talk about literally dreams, but this is better

This is so insightful and so humourous 😂 Thank you so much for sharing

Tact and truth. Politeness and forthrightness. I’ve rarely been called tactful. We need to grab the bull by the horns, Slavoj.

8yrs ago he predicted a war which has already taken place for the reasons he guessed correctly, this is insane

Kinda notable that you don’t have captions: I’d be happy to transcribe?

love it . reminds me of korn and mey youth in sloevnia

@18.20 "Fidelity to pre-modern, so-called 'Asian' values is paradoxically the very feature that allows countries like China Singapore and India, to follow the path of capitalism even more radically than liberal Western countries." That moment when realise that under the clowning is the smartest guy on earth.

Nice he referenced that "40/45 min" sketch

The title of this video would be a pretty cool title for an album/song

Com amor de Campinas, São Paulo, Brasil.

We just love Slavoj. We know he hates it. That just makes us love him more.

Thank Lord Buddha almighty, Zizek was able by his informative and well aimed lecture to curb the audiences desparate need for trying to degrade the talk, by their infantile laughter, at any appearing sexual allusion into a comedy session. In the end there wasn't much left to laugh about. I first thought he was speaking at some puritanian USA university. But no, Sheik el BlaBla house is seated in London UK. Zizek ✊

48:00 is my favourite part of the talk

Oh man, big data has transformed for the worse since Slavoj's optimism here. People don't have to analyze it. They can just train neural networks on it & automatically pick out dissidents before even the dissidents realize where they're headed, or before they do anything to reveal their thoughts.

Hear ye, hear ye!

I love Zizek. I think that, if I learned something here, I could say that this isn't philosophy, as we consume in Western civilization, because I don't have to pretend that I'm having fun and amusement watching it. By the way, I guess the core of enlightenment is over. That's why Hegel, the last resistance to enlightenment, must be back.

1:23:28 pretty good prediction of current situation in Europe

Nice stand up, first time I see this comedian

Zizek doesn't know that Prof. Sen is from same Brahminical communities who maintain objective as well as subjective caste inequalities

Zizek might be wrong about the last answer. Mass surveillence is highly automated. 1:32:00

18:21 Brilliant Just over 2 minutes . . . And then it gets better . . .

1:06 obscenity spotted

the man

15:40 dissing about Gandhi for those of you who are here for it

1:29:44 "Now he´s narcissistically amused" :D :D

1:20:13 Could anybody tell me who is this person that zizek is referring to?

Žižek ⭐

Slavoj is not a psychoanalyst, he is a historian of the philosophy of psychoanalysis. He has commented in another talk that he has never followed through as an analysand in an analysis, and he does not conduct psychoanalysis. He is a philosopher and a historian.

what is this for a book presentation without naming the book? what is the name of the new Zizek book?

Lol I lost it at Clinton sex. Zizek is a stand up philosopher

The Election story was really funny.

I would love to see Slavoj Zizek debate Jordan Petersen.

and so on...

Relationship without real relationships,coffee without coffeein... I figure aut if i imagine to be an artist on the stage and make completely fun of myself for half of hour im sleeping better

7:55 temptations of the west, not "twilights of the west". Even influenced wrong search suggestions.

Dalits are a sixth of India's population - over 200 million

Everything is possible but nothing is being done

I like zizek and he has some nuggets of information but he is all over the place. He raises all these seemingly random points but does not take them anywhere. He's like those comedians who raise a seemingly odd point and then say "what's that all about? " I like his view on religious beliefs though. 45.00

Double displacement, Yes!

I guess she noted down his dead mother joke at 35:20

his analysis on putin is so accurate with whats going on now

Dr. Purna is thickology at its puretht.

Starts at 4:00

yeah yeah yeah, great: 4:10

“Communists Leaders are the Best Capitalist Managers”

40:57 - Žižek about belief without any believers.

i've searched this guy precisely zero times. Can't remember his name. Listen youtube, I've tried, but every time I think he's getting somewhere he turns a totally different direction and i can NEVER follow his train of thought completely. I assume he's coherent when he writes or else he wouldn't keep showing up in my recommended videos as someone who is apparently a highly respected thinker?? I have NEVER searched him and youtube is like no no no you MUST listen to Slubjov! Or whatever his name is. I honestly can't remember.

put this man in charge already

I really find his views thought provoking that being said, wouldn’t it be funny if the host had a face shield on 😅

Even what to experience as pleasurable is taught to us by society ! *very correct !* This maybe even goes down to the preference of sweet over sour . And please don't think of horses and apes liking sweet. Or the mother's milk being sweet. Sweet in the first place is just an indicator of high energy food allowing fast muscular activities. And I'm saying this in a most liberal leninists way. Zizek convincing as always 🏆

Why is not possible subtitles, legends?

This is his funniest all right.

'they need to censur our dream'. Dont worry mister zizek, with the microchip and morgellon technology, they are already up to installing exactly that technologically!

4:06 Slavoj starts

Spanish subtitles, please...

Why do people keep giving Zizek water at these events? He just ends up spraying it all on the microphone.

1:08:56 Not that I want to hate on people, but I'm in disbelief as to how people with such speech problems might not have them fixed before going out to speak publicly. As far as I know, therapy for stuttering is neither hard nor unaffordable.

2014!! Way ahead.

I think Slavoj likes Purna ❤wen marriage?

15:28 what is Zizek talking about here? natulists? I cannot understand.

39

dr sen tried her best to "mother" him to focus on the topic but zizek the kid prevailed....

14:50 I have enough spit on me. I better move over before he blows his nose in my jacket....

00:09 01:00

OKi, not talking about the jokes or anything cause he seems to use them repetitively - what I think his point with the "accepting the cliche jokes" (such as the Montenegran one) is: People would RATHER accept anti-racist struggle as part of their own personal lives than as a part of some bullshit agenda of society = which is 100% correct TBH, the media despite making (and even forcing) the "ground to debate" is actually rejecting the little bit of will inside ourselves to accept and identify and live with differences Or shorter - to put it simply in a "conservative European "civilized" way" : street problems should be solved on the streets, institutional job is to keep state institutions clean and effective, and put the "street problems agenda" as a little bonus of "miracle happen" without anyone debating it Problem ofc. is - whenever a new "crew" of government is put on the new position the media either overcriticizes them or overpraises, either way it's not effective for the future lifestyle of the country. Certainly it's not good to not have defense of "absolute governmental power", BUT - with overcriticizing or overpraising the following happens: morale of people falls down rapidly - they're all like: "well everything is written already, we just elect who executes the script" Same with every social phenomenon there is like - racism, rapism, feminism, e.t.c., people are simply put "FED of it".. And that part is at least the healthy one, gives some hope for doing the "lazy moderate living" while being correct and not offending

Every woman likes the man she' s interested to change alot and even to go back to old state and the again to change for better.

42:00 , 52:00 , 01:18:00

And thank you Martin Luther.

THAT’S ideology

dey dey dey DEY dey dye dey

Thank you Zizek for proving that God exists again and personal freedom is unstoppable. And that academics always fail.

We need cooperation. Fascism is making life all about money. Its too cold. People need quality environments not warehouses for the poor.

The eye rolls from the person beside him hahaha

Post-Truth Era. Capitalism and schizophrenia.

His focus appears to be on words and rhetoric that must be changed by "us " ---- and not on the "problems" --- the " root " causes in societies that are imposed upon "us"...... Does all he states have any deep significance or is it just " empty" rhetoric on his part ?

Dear Mr. Zizek, I know that you don't like the "but" (😉) in the sentence "I'm not a racist but..." BUT (sic) if you don't allow the "but", how can you still think ? How it is possible to think about the problems caused by immigration (yes, there are problems) for example ? It's like a self-censorship of our thoughts by exacerbated and not necessarily shared guilt... Lovely woman, by the way 🙂
