Slavoj Žižek: What Happens When the Rules Break Down?

Žižek & So On Podcast
LISTEN: www.tinyurl.com/zpodcast
A podcast for people who are interested in the philosophy of Slavoj Zizek, and are looking for an entry point into his work. The hosts discuss his interventions in philosophy, culture, politics, and art-with special attention paid to his most recent books, and the evolution of his thinking.
This video is PART ONE of a series of interviews with Slavoj Žižek from 2003 wherein he discusses Hardt and Negri, Mikhail Bakhtin's carnival, strip poker, the rejection of any spontaneous trust that moments of carnival suggest as a priori redemptive or emancipatory events, and the stalinist purges.
Why is carnival deeply ambiguous? Why more often than not as a rule is it the ultimate strategy of ruling ideology,? Žižek goes on to discuss James Bond and the disappearance at the level of philosophy maintaining the marxist tradition of the site of labour as the collective intensive process as a potential site of liberation, emancipation and solidarity.

“The truly repressed today is no longer sex or whatever, but simply labor, hard work.”

Labor is for the slaves.
Look at ancient greek.

Look at plato or socrates. Do you think they did precarious labor?

@@siddhartacrowley8759 and? How does that statement prove labor is for slaves as you say?

It wasn't really meant seriously. But.
I simply don't see anything great in labor.
Especially in this capitalist hellscape.
Most of the great men in philosophy, or art could do so, because they didn't need to do labor. They had plenty of time for their opus.
To say it with nietzsche:
"Today as always, men fall into two groups: slaves and free men. Whoever does not have two-thirds of his day for himself, is a slave, whatever he may be: a statesman, a businessman, an official, or a scholar."

It's almost like a story of How The West Was Lost

[@claudiamanta1943]

A carnival- type of festival was useful but clearly delimited in time. He’s right about the contemporary not carnival, but circus as a means of ruling. The clowns ‘leading’ the animals.
