Bump for the slightly delirious effort post, but this reads more like celebrity gossip than an actual critique of the French/continental approach.

Zizek agrees

Had this one for a while

anon i am sorry to tell you this but you have been brainwashed
if jews were actually bad people, if jewishness was itself bad, then the people who are the MOST jewish would be worst, right? and people who are less jewish (and if you don't think a jew can be more or less jewish than another jew, then you can stop reading, because whatever you have is incurable), these people would be not so bad. this is a reasonable premise, right?
but actually, you find that the opposite is true - the worst "jews" are the least jewish, and the "best" jews are the most jewish. my argument is this: that the worst jews, the -steins and -bergs you see writing news articles about wypepo bad, nignog good and etc, those jews, have most likely never actually seen the inside of a synagogue in their lives, or perhaps once on their baxmitzvah. they are almost universally "culturally jewish", literally self-identified atheists, they are progressive, they don't eat kosher, and "jewishness" to them is basically an off-brand version of white that lets them larp as ethnics when it suits them and chastise actual whites when it doesn't. these people are clearly some of the worst of all jews, and yet, you have to even wonder the extent to which these people are actually jewish at all. their children certainly won't be
but the ones who are the most jewish, are of course the ultra-orthodox jews, and these people are unlikely to even get a job at all, much less one peddling progressive schlock to gentiles. these people are highly insular, even amongst other jews, they often don't work at all, they refuse to serve in the military (a contentious issue over in israel, the one state you'd expect them to defend). they dress their women like nuns, they are more socially conservative than probably 99% of /pol/, they are deeply religious, and in general you don't find them being soldiers in our culture war, because they're solely concerned with their own community and following their book of autistic rules to the letter
the average /pol/ user doesn't even have the standing to criticize these people - his tribe is one of godless atheists, fallen hopelessly far from grace. even if they did kill christ and are likely going to hell, i'd rather bet on some zz-top looking dude who's never had lobster getting to heaven than basically 95% of whites. i won't deny that awful people really are disproportionately "jewish" to some non-zero degree. but i contest that this is somehow an innately jewish problem - if it was, you'd expect to see something completely different than what is reflected in reality

Opinions on Zizek? Seems like the most influential and interesting Philosopher in recent times. I watched his movies, which were really great and his talks are too interesting.

Is Sublime Object of Ideology worth reading /lit/?

>*sniff* you see, within a lacanian analysis of avatar, the ability to materially effect the world, you know, ground, wind, fire, liquids and so on they never depict the use of these abilities for sexual pleasure. *sniff* In fact, this is implied when the blind one mentions how rough it is to go bareback. In fact, the archetypal character, the avatar, when he *sniff* controls all the elements, only when using all four simultaneously could true sexual pleasure be attained.

I can't believe I'm actually writing this, but I can't stop refreshing this board. My work is piling up and I need to do it to pay the rent and food, but this whole crisis is giving me such horrid levels of anxiety. I can't even do my hobbies because I feel the need to get work done, but I just cant seem to force myself to do it. I'm normally the one to give advice to people who are saying this. I think a big issue is I can't differentiate where I work and where I shitpost. My apartment is small and there's really no place to go get work done that isn't on the same laptop I'm using to shitpost on. I'm literally bartlebe right now. I'm supposed to be doing legal research and clerking duties but I'd prefer not to. Someone please help, how do I make myself accountable, how do I focus, how do I get anything done? My apartment is a mess and I can't focus on anything.

What does he even want?

Thoughts on this mess of a creature?

What's his best work/talk?

Strategic communication, information warfare, misinformation, disinformation and not least of all fake news. The master narratives are found in quantity, dare to articulate them and you risk sparking a fire that will consume us all, you might have noticed the temperature rising the last decade. There are many players that are using our neural pathways as their own logistical highways, carrying narratives for a worse tomorrow. The most notable ones would be the Russian GRU and associated services, the eastern strategic communication team, Nato`s Stratcom, the purple haired auntie & the lonely basement dweller. There is no point in trying to get the names exactly right, there are too many self described information warriors to keep count or much less keep score.

Information warfare both defensive and offensive has become a popular money sink for the paranoid monetary elite and their deluded sense of responsibility. Its effectiveness measured by scores of data scientists & schizophrenics alike, their predictions almost indistinguishable. You could start mapping out the various battlefields on each side, but you will be scraping conversations, not the proverbial gunpowder residue. Narratives are not simple creations that are designed from cradle to grave, they take on a life of their own. The disgusting language used by self proclaimed experts in “misinformation” only serve to expose their own delusions of grandeur. Lies have always had their place in society, exposing a lie just by referencing the inherent fault in its perceived narrative is dishonest at best, suicidal at worst.

Soon we will be able to communicate entire bibliographies with the most subtle of hand movements, If we keep defining the conversations based on conceived ideological subversion.

just an exercise in articulation, let me know how stupid i appear.

>when Zizek talks about bringing a fleshlight on a date and the woman bringing her fuck machine
I'm gonna use that line on a date
