Do you know of any more specific critiques? I agree with the concept of what you're saying, and I'm somewhat familiar with some Marxist critiques of psychoanalysis, but I'd rather spend some time with the problem rather than just read your comment, instantly forget about it, and continue trying to frame certain phenomena with flawed premises.
I appreciate the detailed response. I guess I'll just try and take an inventory of any concepts that I might have carried over from my Zizek days and make sure I don't put them forward in organizing or base my work in them in any way. I've been kind of doing that anyway, the Rockhill article really shook my faith in Z, but I had assumed that even if Z had twisted the source material, the source material was itself pretty legit. I guess I'll try to find other critiques. Thanks.
