My great, amazing, extraordinary talented Zizek, My dear, you are very intelligent, you were able to expand our limited horizon, and you gave us a new understanding of life. You taught us how to think, my dearest, thank you for your tireless efforts towards enlightenment and freedom, thank you endlessly for all your efforts. I am eternally grateful.

According to temporal horseshoe theory postmodernism and premodernism meet up again round the back.

Does Slavoj know Borat personally? Do they ever chill in Eastern Europe in a world cafe and laugh at the silly Americans, which of course includes Jordan Peterson?

Is he aware of his horrific tics? If psychoanalysis is of any use he should have cured himself of this by now.
