    Not to mention Zizek is a Marxist but he is a bit of an anti communist and for the most part doesn’t really talk about the necessity of revolution, social justice, etc. He just likes to use Marxism as a tool to have interesting conversations about human belief

      Zizek is not an anti-communist in any sense of the word, he’s a firmly very far fucking left postmodernist Maoist playing a joke on y’all cuz bourgeois hegemony

      y’all still think you’re further left than daddy and it will never stop being hilarious

    This is revisionist history

    I believe that the debate actually caused Jordan Peterson to resort to the unthinkable: trying a sip of apple cider, which in turn caused him to not sleep for 25 days, which then led to him getting addicted to benzos and slipping into a coma.

    I just don’t understand how you think you can “debate” a Marxist and then admit you read the communist manifesto like once in college as your prep work. Like, was he just hoping that Zizek would be a total kook?
