but hes right about a lot of things. kind of sad that this 72 year old is one of the most influential intellectual on the left today
edit: I think this post was taken in the wrong way. You should read Zizek, he does have good ideas. I call him a "grifter" not to shut down his ideas, but rather as an acknowledgement of his limitations.
Zizek tends to explain how things are more difficult and have multiple facets compared to the binary stance most people take on issues. I think that leads to a lot of misinterpretation, in combination with his absurd stream of consciousness writing and talking.
