Zizek BTFOs live on Twitch Accelerationism and Asceticism (retvrn) as an legitimate response to the current state of late capitalism
Holy SHIT I don't care
If you truly didn’t you wouldn’t have responded.
Incorrect, here I am responding again and I care even less now than I did a moment ago.
Your deeds contradict your words
Tsundere
Stop advertising, you fricking moronic pseud
I dont think he properly addressed this "Asceticism."
So, what does the fat old white male Twitch streamer advocate you do, other than like and subscribe for more videos? Or is the little boomer snowflake too precious to give constructive advice, and would prefer to complain that people don't ask his permission to live their own damned lives? Serious question, asking for a friend.
How does this BTFO anything? His response is basically ‘I don’t think capitalism will end if it’s accelerated because people have said that before and it didn’t turn out that way so let’s just see what happens’
Did you even watch the video? Not even a Zizek stan but he comes out on top in this. Land BTFO.
Oh ya the fat slob is a paragon of self discipline for shur
>Zizek
>Accelerationism
>Asceticism (retvrn)
>late capitalism
It's like an AI chose the most annoying words to brainfry you. Some of you voluntarily subjecting yourself to any of this truly waste oxygen.
you sound butthurt
That's why he is so good: You are what you critique. It says alot about the current state of things.
>not a Jordan Pee-tersen on pic
Zizek drones BTFO
>current state of late capitalism
lol of course the meme philosopher in chief touts the meme phrase to end all meme phrases
What is the legitimate response to late stage capitalism?
something Chinese
Intersectional plutofascism.
>the current state of late capitalism
You mean globalism? Which is a combination of socialism and state capitalism; both of which are in direct conflict with free market capitalism?
>both of which are in direct conflict with free market capitalism?
If free market capitalism is "in direct conflict" with socialism and state capitalist, how come every single instance of free market capital in history ended up evolving into socialism/state capitalism?
You know why moshe.
The inability to localize 'capitalism' to the nanoscopic caste of persons engaging in transnational organized crime will leave the Marxoid-Leninistas of the world corralled in a nineteenth century containment op indefinitely yeah
>transnational organized crime
Ach! Not *transnational* organized crime! I much preferred locally-source organized crime.
Does anyone else feel cringe with these facetime/teams/skype interviews? This mofo is lying on his bed doing the interview. I just feel intellectuals/philosophers are degrading their perception in public. I know this might sound like idol-worship, but I just can't take a person seriously enough if they dress like shit and don't take themselves seriously enough. I feel like some of these "intellectuals" would have a twitch livestream with Andrew Tate, Adin Ross or some other zoomer celebrity if they were asked to. I don't think Spengler, Nietzsche, Marx, Sartre, Russell, Heidgger would ever degrade themselves in this way.
Technology has intruded too much into private lives. I feel like people show to much of themselves to public and disrespect their character. I would never take Kant if he was seen going to McDonald's and doing interviews with zoomers.
What I mean to say is thar everything has become so childish and infantile, there is no more seriousness.
Kant seriously*
Be 5'3 manlet. Justify a pedo ring.
>ngmi
The sign of the times man.
If that would be enough to turn you off from a philosopher then you are not really interested in the truth anyway. You like the facade of being an intellectual, not understanding philosophy
This is not what he was talking about. It is dishonest to distort it through this reply
No, I will try to listen to a philosopher even if he is having a zoom lecture in pyjamas. But the problem is in the overall degradation of society. I don't care about the facade that much, but it makes me lose interest if someone doesn't take themselves or what they are doing seriously enough. This reminds me of Stefan Zweig's book "World of Yesterday". He has a chapter on the seriousness of society in pre WW1 Europe. How the youth tried to imitate elders and wanted to be seen as mature,capable and wise. Today everything is flipped.
I wouldn't even call it a facade. I think how we present ourselves speaks much more deeply about us than the words laced with self-delusion we pour out. If you want to learn the truth about a society look at how it presents itself, that's where its beliefs are found.
i think zizek has even spoken about this, with regards to trump
something about him saying out loud vulgarities everyone is aware of and precisely the act of saying those out loud being tactless more so than the words themselves
>Today everything is flipped.
age is no longer an indicator of wisdom, and being well kept is no longer a reliable signal of being well kept in the areas where it matters most.
Age was never an indicator of wisdom, just a well-calibrated life.
No anon, Zizek is being moronic on purpose. That's his shtick.
>Public figures are spectacles
>They reflect your own unconscious
>Hence any problem you have with Zizek being a slob is your inability to handle your own repressed homosexual pedophiliac impulses
>So in short, I was being moron on purpose to hold a mirror to you. Ha ha.
or something like that
Slovenly appearance indicates a slovenly soul. Philosophers aren't excepted.
*shits in your path*
Diogenes was probably just some guy pulling a stunt for a week and it became such a meme in Athens that it blew up into legendary status over time.
This guy takes 10 minutes to say one single sentence, it's amazing.
>late capitalism
just two more weeks til capitalism's final demise i promise just trust me sisters
>*SNNFFGGFFGHHHH*
>word soup
>*SSSLLUUUFFF*
>nonsense
>*FFFFSSSNNSUUFF*
Slob. No discipline in speech or argument.
Does he do this intentionally? Reminds me of homosexuals acting autistic hoping others will think they are a savant, even though they are incoherent.
Disgusting novelty "philosopher" for college students, it seems.
sorry man i was molested when i was a kid.
but I guess your right i need to puke it all out now. I think you cannot see it all. yet. Have you seen it.
(X) doubt
Saw this thread and decided to watch both of Zizek's "Pervert's Guide" movies. What a waste of time. Nice to see an early prototype for YouTube video essays and I disagree that it's word salad, but wow, it's true that he is physically incapable of offering up a solution or saying much of actual substance.
sniff the real is sniff as you can see sniff
His tics notwithstanding, Zizek's psychoanalysis has always seemed like some kind of very elaborate party favor or sleight of hand trick. It's interesting, and then there's nothing to be gained from it. He's really just an entertainer, a pop philosopher if you will., he can't elevate a work so much as use it as some virtual dartboard for his next tangent without a conclusion.
>4 years ago
Can we move on from this fat penis and get some fresh pop philosophers?
