Like Sagan talking to me about the cosmos, I feel like you be breaking shit down for me without dumbing it down. But at the end of the day, most is still flying over my head. The bits I do grasp is sooo enlightening and satisfying tho. I appreciate these free lessons so much. Gonna hit your patreon as soon as I get a few coins to rub together!
This was very good, heard half of it live then rewatched it to keep some notes. I always had an idea through all those readings and conversations but this talk made it somewhat more concrete and put some pieces of the puzzle in place. I don tuse social media at all so i didnt know about your accident. I wish both you and jenalene the best and speedy recovery. Thanks from Thessaloniki, Greece!
Zizek is getting very popular in China btw. What’s funny is that the Zizek institute at the university of Nanjing gets funding from the gov but they could not get zizek to do a seminar 😅
Fantastic lecture! As always it is very interesting to have a philosophical read on the issues and culture we find ourselves in today. We all should spend more time to think about our current development of culture, economics and politics in a greater sheme, to understand where we came from and where we are heading to. Unfortunately I think in the times of "everything crisis" it is hard to find the mental strength and time to truly think for yourselves. Many people are satisfied with attaching themselves to someone elses ideology or cause and to have their thinking done for them. Enlightenment can only be reached by trying to understand all aspects. Greetings from germany!
Listening to intellectuals like Julian makes me realize just how dumb I am and how much there is to learn and discover.I'll conquer my ignorance one day. Thank you Julian for your work!😊
I hope you are feeling better, and I hope that the trauma of the crash resolves over time. I got in a bad car crash in college, and I was frightened about driving for years. Hope all is well.
40:51 I don't get the argument of peeing in the urinal as the way to resist post-modernism. Peeing in the urinal inside the museum wouldn't "allow modernism to unfold in its proper materialistic turn" because the interaction between the subject and the object would not be based in any material aspect of reality but rather in the abstract concept of urinals as "places to pee" in precisely the same way as museums represent "places to expose art" The only way to resist postmodernism is to pee in your pants
Postmodernism does not simply throw away modernism. Therefore, some post-postmodernist that try to throw away postmodernism... are simply anti-postmodernism and anti-modernism at the same time. The correct post-postmodernism can not be anti-postmodernism.
Well we know one thing for sure: tying everything up with a bow and adding an extra “post” to it just turns Post Modernism back into ironic Modernism. You killed it.
I'm sorry, but the style guide is right. If you want to attack the universal structure, just do that. Say "create more equal structures" don't say "eat the rich". A good test is asking yourself if you would like this phrasing if it was about a group you see as your political ingroup. For example, "end the poor" sounds unhinged when you can easily say: "end poverty."
Sorry to be pedantic here, but what you are talking about concerning the Banksy painting has nothing to do with value and surplus value in the Marxian sense. We are only talking about price here - the price has in this context no relation to the actual value of the commodity. So the increase in price (not value) doesn’t add any surplus value - this is all rent seeking, monopoly pricing and rentier economics. There is no creation of surplus value whatsoever.
THE sophistry is strong with this one….the inelegant mental gymnastics here are almost painful to hear, nevertheless interesting to watch how ‘thinkers’ need to contort their ideas around THE space which they dare not enter, for which they have no tools and from which they derive their livelihood, namely the expanding lie that is THE reality of their world.
Political correctness is not post modern. What’s post modern is realizing that political correctness is a supplementary response to forms of injustice.

Just check out zizek's comments on the chinese government, no wonder why he's not welcome.

This was fantastic brother, thank you!
this is the most important philosophy video right now
You've started to pronounce 'pseudo-' as Zizek does xD
That car crash did a number on him
watched this with my new kitten, kafka. he was paying full attention the whole time!
I love Kafka as a name for a cat 🥰
this reminds me of middle class and even wealthy people in the UK that all say that that they are working class.
wow, sorry to hear you had an accident like that,very glad to hear you and Jenaline are alright, I hope you recover quickly and without complications
Glad you are feeling better, just found your channel today when searching for Slavoj 🙏
55:24 lol Epic! Great lecture as always, clarified lots of things you have mentioned before...
From La Paz Bolivia. Lacanian.. :) Love your lectures..
Hi, there from Rio de Janeiro! Great video, BTW
IS NO ONE GONNA MENTION THAT SICK ASS TECH DECK IN THE BACKGROUND? HAHAHAHA A MAN OF CULTURE I SEE
Get better soon Julian.
This is the rantiest I have seen Julian
Oh naurr, I hope you get more better and everything goes well. Love your philosophy lectures so much. What a sad thing to hear.
Q: the author giving a lecture on PPM and thus ('the aim') promoting his book on PPM - is it an example of post-modernism or post-post-modernism?
That cannibal example at the end was a good sum up💡

So my grandpa was a revolutionary all this time
@@kernalfleak rather, he was a sincere modernist.

What about metamodernism?
Indeed!

The phrase 'eat the rich' is not meant to be interpreted literally

Why is the thumbnail Zizek and the video is just some random nobody babbling about nonsense?

I agree that political correctness as such is not postmodern, but the form of political correctness of this particular era, surely it is.
You keep presenting postmodernism as some kind of kid's cartoon.
what is this supposed to even mean
