People who say Zizek is a hack are always those people who only've seen a couple YT videos of his speeches or lectures.

Zizek will a lot of the time greatly simplify his ideas so it can appeal to a larger audience (as, quite often, the audience in front of him is not guaranteed to be well read on Lacan, Hegel, nor Marx). He has perhaps suffered as much as he has succeded with doing his public appearances this way since his personality has become a meme ("haha lmao bro sniffgh sniffhz and so and so an hilarious meme bro").

I am not saying his philosophy is flawless or whatever, but if you actually look past the meme and read one of his works you'll realize that he is a pretty good philosopher
