Friends dragged me to Inside Out 2 and it was saccharine dogshit that mostly made me think of my awkward moments in high school sports. To its credit it was only 90 minutes long. Anyway Zizek’s idea would have been much more unhinged and interesting.

    Yeah no, Zizek is no fan of Palestinians or Arabs in general, usually he coaches his racism in ambiguous and vague phraseology like he’s doing here, but in the past (especially the last year) he’s made clear his racial (or “cultural” as he would put it) antipathy to anyone with a skin color darker then uncooked pizza dough

    He believes Palestinians are brainwashed savages with no right to resistance or even complaint that isn’t coached in acknowledging western cultural supremacy, those are his views on culture and race in general, he’s just spitting acid at the annoying ethnics who’s “savagery” would according to him make for more entertaining television
