Zizek always waits three days before texting back

“At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality.” - Che Guevara

Love arrives at the worst moment. That's beautiful! After a heartbreaking relationship I started to focus on my self even more both psychically and mentally. I've seen my parts of bad, and realized what's really I am looking for and how should I act to have it. Now, focused on myself and on my plans I don't even want to be bothered by this "consumerist-relationships". Only one thing can break this and get me out of here and it is love. Hopefully, Zizek is right, let's see :D.

Ceaselessly looking for a mate is a sure way to never find a mate.

Uh, I see Opeths debut…

[@madloop2456]

Can you make a video on Zizek & Frank Ruda's idea of fatalism?

[@Imblakeimblakethatsrght]

Excellent video, it's fucking awesome.

[@mirandagonzalez5586]

Great video, you are so good at explaining this controversial and complicated Zizek

[@KK-sg5gl]

Does Zizek himself say to be your happiest, healthiest, most focused self? Or did you add that in? What if the way someone wants to live their life at the moment is by being unhealthy, reclusive, and anything else along those lines?

[@theblitz6794]

Why would a psychologically healthy person want to live that way?

[@KK-sg5gl]

@@theblitz6794perhaps their burnt out? Maybe they were responsible and saved a lot of money and made good investments, but something like 2020 came and took their career from them? And for the foreseeable future they just want to enjoy life (being rebellious) as they choose. Perhaps that’s just their personality and since 2020 now they can work at home and they’ve become very comfortable staying in and never touch a dating app. I’m not sure what year the study was done, but 1/50 people in Japan were reported to be recluses.

[@corrupted6683]

I think Julian at this point is only trying to cashcow Zizek's accesibility to articulate himself as a master-like self-help figure. He's only recycling old ideas he already covered in his old videos and slowly desintegrating the negative (with this I mean critical) character of Zizek's philosophy (which ofc isn't flawless. I actually think he often reducts Lacan and Hegel to this thinkers of the Nothing as something intrinsically ontological, but as an old trick to create wordy dialectical games with not a real content in it).

What is that Brecht poem again??

[@punkprimate]

It must be "Die dritte Sache"

[@mino7166]

but how can love allow you to alienate from yourself and help you be your "actual authentic beeing", in a different video you said there is no "authentic you" its all just masks, same as you cannot step outside of ideology to the actual "reality"

[@KK-sg5gl]

It’s been proven. Average men swipe yes 1,000 times. Get 50 matches. Go out on 3 first dates. And have a slim chance that one of them continuing on longer. Not so easy as pushing a button.

[@fixthefernback8030]

zizek is very much anti-tinder, so idek why you're bringing that up here.

[@Ivan-qk2rn]

I agree that to say it's as easy as just click the button is not exactly true. But what is true, I hope you'd agree, that companies present it as if it's an easy button. And it's definitely and deliberately skewed to make people keep on swiping as not as proof of how lame the apps are, but as a proof of how cool and emancipated they are, all the potential matches and dates should almost me your head dizzy of thought how free you are to choose. That is precisely what a negative liberal concept of freedom is. There is no obvious barrier for you to get a million girls, the tinder is your oyster to crack. But it's not enough as you say, it's all empty potential never realized.

[@KK-sg5gl]

@@fixthefernback8030at 0:40 that’s exactly what the video says. Not me. Did you listen?

[@KK-sg5gl]

@@Ivan-qk2rnno. It’s only empty potential for average men. Even a 4/10 woman can swipe 20 times, get 18 matches, and get a date within 24 hours with 10/18 of those matches. That’s over a 90% difference in results for the genders. Conclusion? Women need to be rebellious and stay with one partner to make relationships “work” again. It’s in their hands.

[@conforzo]

Lol that sounded strangely redpilled a la Balkan Gains 😂 "Stop obsessing over women. Work on yourself" with roided gymrats accompanied by russian hardbass

[@gonx9906]

This is one of the reasons i can't fully take Zizek seriusly, a philosopher thats want to have an opinion about everything doesnt look good.

[@markoslavicek]

I'd eather say that instead of having an opinion on everything, he has one opinion (or at least very few) that he then applies to various cases.
