Why has he never commented on Guenon and Evola? Surely he's read the most important thinkers of the 20th century, right?

>>24560748 (OP)
he was busy watching pedowood movies instead of reading

>>24560756
Classic Hollywood (which he likes) is kino tho

>y no Guenon and Evola? lololo
Meme authors for deracinated edgy alt right closet gay amerimutt suburbanites. Kys, faggot

>>24561304
Classic literature is better

>>24560748 (OP)
what's up with Zizek. I feel that he just tows the common technocrat line but arrives there with such by such a roundabout way that his readers feel better about supporting the "right thing"

>evola
>guenon
Kys immediately rootless amerimutt faggot

He has said before in a review of the Joker movie from 2019 I believe that he doesn’t even watch most of the movies he discusses but goes off of a general overview of their plots he read and then uses that as a springboard to discuss philosophical tangents from Hegel and co.

For example that review of Lubitsch’s to be or not to be where he just uses that one joke (concentration camp Gerhardt I presume?) to discuss complex philosophical beliefs. Honestly he comes across as very ADHD and I doubt he has the patience to watch a full movie to completion.

He is the last Hegelian. He lives and breathes the dialectic.

Evola is basically sceptic Descartes and Guenon is basically stoic Descartes. For Zizek specifically this likely entails that Evola is too cynical for any sort of serious political response and Guenon has to figure out what he is first since he couldn't find any traditions in Buddhism to make the east/west leap.

think i've seen at least one of the two referenced in a book of his

Zizek aimed to immanentise schizoanalysis by acting as the Pervert in Chief who needed castration. He is trapped inside a shell of jokes.

Also Guenon became functionally Albanian, and two albanians and a bottle destroyed Yugoslavia.

so what youre saying is that it takes more attention to watch hollywood slop than to write multiple books and study philosophy lmao?

Why does zizek support israel and always talks about persecuting anti-semites and racists?

>>24562477
Did you not read where Zizek takes the place of the Pervert in Chief who seeks to be castrated?

The problem is that today’s antisemitism comes wrapped in the language of anti-imperialism, anti-capitalism, and so on. It is not the old biological racism, but something more perverse… a kind of ideological displacement where “the Jews” or “the Zionists” function as a fetish to explain all the contradictions of global capitalism

Other than anti-semitism never being about "biological racism," that's reasonable from a fence-sitter

>>24562676
You need to remember that biology doesn't exist and Zizek wants you fascists shot. Except when Serbia invades Bosnia because Slovenia jumped into Germany's anus like a hamster.
