>only americans dislike retarded ideologies

nice meme!

Communist detected.

Enjoy starving to death, or being sent to the gulag

Windbag and charlatan

sccchlep and so forth

An entertainer and a pop philosopher.

All these shitposts and not one cogent counterargument to his ideas, critiques and philosophical musings.

Christ, what the fuck happened, Veeky Forums?

Commie, dropped

Communism has been destroyed countless times.

What is there left to discuss?

It's a retarded ideology that has never worked.

Veeky Forums was never good

>(Sniffs)
I haven't read any of his writings and have only seen that film on Ideology. He seemed like he was always building to a point and then switching topics as soon as he was about to come to any sort of conclusion, like he could build up all the pieces of an argument and connect together several ideas at once but ultimately reach no clear point.

Am I just a pleb or was my initial impression that he was more of a showman than a thinker actually correct?

Lol butthurt

zizek is fun but not someone to take 100 percent serious. it is nice to see someone from europe not running around and acting like trump is the next hitler but calling him what he is, a centrist democrat

>all these unironic edgy marxists on Veeky Forums

Am I on Reddit?

>being triggered because people disagree with you
kek

>starving because the state takes away your stuff

communism

I must have watched 10 of his lectures on Youtube and I barely understand what his is actually trying to convey - other than dirty jokes.

People like being contrarian here, just look at the amount of reactionaries.

Zizek proves, once again, Eastern European communists are infinitely more insightful and funner than Western Euro commies.

The latter are so full of shit and nauseating IdPol.

His ideas are quite nice.

>communism
>state
well memed!

Fuck off back to /leftypol/

Fuck off back to /pol/

...

Pretty much. Nothing good ever came from that why should I pay attention to retards who want to try again? To make another Venezuela?

Back to /leftypol/

...

...

>being THAT bootyblasted
Stay classy Veeky Forums

We don't even have to be that drastic. Just focus on lefty-oriented economics and how they devour themselves.

*sniff*

I don't come to Veeky Forums often, but are these the average posters of this board?!
Because Jesus the fuck man.../pol/ wasn't able to contain the cancer.

Also, not even one post discussing the guy's ideas.

He's a communist.

Immediately discarded and credibility lost.

>Dissidents
>Innocents

Pick one, bourgeois scum

Better dead than red.

Anything that has something to do with either national or international socialism should be discarded

He doesn't like doing talks, he prefers writing. Said so in an interview (can't recall which one).

His books have better structure, but they can be fairly cryptic.
Overall, his talks are more interesting as a means to vehicle his opinion on current events & the books are better to dig into his ideas

Also, Pervert's Guide is GOAT pop culture

>Better bread than red

ftfy

It's precisely the opposite

>ITT reactionary teenagers with nothing else to do

Being a communist should be a bannable offense

>ITT communist teenagers buttblasted about people making fun of their crackpot ideology

socialism gave you the internet and communism gave you the free time to post.

exploiting people is good for the economy, who knew

No shit the most posters on Veeky Forums are trash. Just take a peek into the Voltaire posting thread going on right now. I'm convinced there's a low amount of actual posters, when the lurkers find something 'funny' or personally disturbing they seep out of the cracks and start posting garbage.

He's more Lacanian than he is a marxist.

But if Veeky Forums has problems reading Marx I don't expect them to understand Lacan, to the point to make a counter argument, they'll just reduce themselves to some ad hominems.

He's only right about not beign take seriously and making a clown of himself saved him from ostracism but get him associated with the worst kinds of people, popular sexually active people.

And we know how much Veeky Forums hate those.

One of the consequences of having a small penis or a sexual disfunction.

>Everyone isn't a commie retard like /leftypol/
>WAA WAA HIS IS SHIT
>MY SANDBOX
>MY RULES

First rule if you want to be taken seriously.

Don't fail every time.

Marxism and Stalinism (which is what you are all referring to as "communism") have very little to do with each other.

Leftist without the cancerous SJW/PC shit

I like him

Still not able to discuss actual ideas, you retarded piece of shit ?

You realize every time there is any actual discussion about it, commie shit for brains get clobbered so hard they report to spamming memes and ignoring anything anyone ever says.
E.g.
Cry more baby boy

I was there during tons of "actual discussions" and what you describe never happened. People spam memes because most of the arguments right wing people make are old ones totally incoherent and empty ("human nature", "it has failed every time", "who would you be without capitalism"). I'm sure you find those convincing but that's only because you've never open a book written by someone of different ideas.

Lmao, so you're 12, and you get upset that you get BTFO and can't respond to the most simplistic of arguments, so you resort to crying about "right wing propaganda" and how nobody wants to listen to the delusions of some American who doesn't understand the effects of Marxist ideology on social systems and governance, or can even comprehend how communism can't exist in a scarce environment.

the only one i see crying here is you, user

Marxists are all retards

Wow why are you talking like that ? Do you realise you sound ridiculous ?
None of what you are saying is implied in my post so I don't understand why it's coming out of you little brain.
I wasn't talking about myself anyway, I have other things to do than to debate this kind of things. But I'm glad you are finally making a few arguments after three shitposts.
Also I'm not american you self-centered piece of shit.

This thread is bretty terrible. Is anyone on Veeky Forums interested in discussing things in good faith anymore??

>the effects of Marxist ideology on social systems and governance
elaborate pls
>communism can't exist in a scarce enviroment
elaborate pls

And by the way, when I say I have other things to do than debate with right wingers about things they don't know the theory of, I mean masturbate.

Not, if it involves leftists, blacks, hindus, new age, and puppies.

Well that's disappointing.

No, this board went to shit fast. History is barely discussed and "humanities" threads are just shitposting grounds for /pol/, /int/, and Veeky Forums

moot was right

perfect

...

You realize you're just annoying right ? Just annoying. That's all.

You deserve it.

Some proper discussion wouldn't have hurt nobody.

It's literally just /pol/ and Christians who ruin this fucking board. If you try and discuss anything with a hint of anti-Conservative theme, like Zizek, you get "LOL COMMIE IDIOTS GET OUTTA HERE". If you try and discuss anything about Africa or evolution you get "EVOLUTION WAS DEBUNKED YEARS AGO, REPENT AND FEEL CHRISTS LOVE!"

There are some quality threads some times, but it's getting shitter by the day.

>It's literally just /pol/ and Christians who ruin this fucking board.
t. Marxist

I... I know ? I thought you were saying the opposite. I guess I'm too new to english yet to understand sarcasm every thime.

looks like your standard commie

I'm hesitant to attribute to any one group. Veeky Forums seems to foster a culture of anti intellectualism in general.

>proving my point

Why does everything have to be political for you retards? Why are you so gripped by ideology and identity? Why are you so obsessed with an invisible enemy?

shitposting is through the roof. You are ruining this board.

>intellectualism
>good thing

I agree for the most part with his critiques. That's where he provides value. He also has good ideas about 'becoming the men we are waiting for' and so on and so on. What he lacks is an idea of how a better government would function. All he says is that he doesn't want to be bothered with micromanaging everything at the community level. Like a true communist he wants everything to just 'be taken care of.' That might work with AI but I haven't heard him say that. If anything he is scared of future technology. At least Chomsky had the balls to do his 'government in the future.'
Overall good critiques on modern western society and culture.

Literally nobody except Marxists themselves likes Marxists. The sooner you arrive at that realization the better.

in america maybe. That's a capitalist problem if you have shitty commies :^)

this is the best anthem try to prove me wrong
pro-tip, you can't

Its them and them!!! WUSS DEM!!!

Why is it bad?

You've literally accused me of being Marxist with the only basis that I don't like /pol/. You're like an animal who comes back with a knee-jerk reaction to anyone who doesn't agree with your brand of bullshit ideology.

Why is it good?

Anti-intellectualism comes from the word anti-intellectual. It's not opposed to intellectualism, it's opposed to intellectual.
Veeky Forums is shit because /pol/ and other self righteous groups are dumbing everything down with peer-pressure. I mean it's one of the reasons it's shit.

That's called politics. Works for every consistant ideology.
(I posted the last post too, sorry for spamming)

>Veeky Forums is shit

Nobody's holding you here bucko. Go back to having your l'englightened fedora debates over on revleft if you don't want to be shitposted to oblivion.

>Any discussion which doesn't fit /pol/'s retarded conspiracy theories is instantly part of the /leftypol/ boogeyman

Do you know how stupid you sound? There are very few Marxists on this board.

>marxists of Reddit
I was unaware that the MRA and The Red Pill were the results of Karl Marx's teachings

The same with your /pol/ ad hominem shit, you have literally zero evidence that I'm from there and I indeed ain't. You just use it as a convenient crutch to label people who trouble your booty.
