"I am a pessimist here."
"I am naive here, totally naive"
"AND YOU KNOW WHY?..
..and again!"
"My question is this one."
Edit: "Are we aware that? Do you know what happened in... a friend of a friend of a friend of mine in China told me..."
"Okay, I'm sorry I talk to much. But on the other hand, what can you do, fuck you, you have to listen to me he-he-he but seriously, thank you very much."
@@tribebuddha HAHA
@@tribebuddha marvelous
No matter how hard it tries, TH-cam auto caption algorithms will never understand this man
There is hope for us yet.
@@nonah60 Glad there are many people trying to keep up with him. Cause on the other hand, so many deride this brilliant guy on the grounds on their own not understanding shit of what he says, whether philosophically or linguistically. Pure laziness!
He is recognized as a Dutch speaker ; D

inb4 Zizek's vocal tics become widely adopted as a way of escaping surveillance capitalism's clutches.
I really love how Zizek is so open to different interviews and questions, i truly believe he has a voice that the modern left really needs to hear.
Thank you for bringing him to youtube.
I’m a conservative and I love this guy . Your words are so correct 👍
I'm a simple, man I see zizek and I click
an adorable panda, mark Hamill lookalike of a man
@@mannyd-y5246 Hamill is a Zizek lookalike, not the other way around
@@loyalty155 hmmm luke defeated the empire in 1983 5 years before zizek released his first book
@@mannyd-y5246 Well it depends where you're starting your measurements from. Zizek is older I think, but regardless, I still agree with your panda bit.
@@steffenam I am a pessimist here
Zizek embodies a "stream of consciousness" at its best.
yes because he repeats himself consistently
Still more useful than 99.9% of talk out there today
@@christophermarks4526 true
One of the best interviews with Zizak I advice everyone to watch this here is the link:
th-cam.com/video/CLGy129CmCQ/w-d-xo.html
are we not conscious
AND GOD SAID THERE WILL BE LIGHT AND SO ON AND SO ON
I love how he has an opinion on everything. Anytime something big happens in the news I check to see what zizek thinks about it
Actually, if anybody doesn't want to be idiots, they gotta have opinions on just about everything.
This zizek guy seems smart. I think he will go on to write a book or something.
good one
He should get into academia or something
@@loyalty155 Good one.
Fascinating listen. What a man.
am in shock 2
I love it that I can listen to Zizek more often. Like every week there's new stuff.
yes, and he always has an updated perspective & more things to say, love it
Really? Where is he being interviewed? I can't find him in recent videos apart from this one.
@@Quinceps do search on youtube and sort it by date. There should be plenty.
@@Quinceps Just avoid reuploads of old stuff.
It's important to look at who's system has the lowest prison population. Which country in the world does their justice system without putting people in cages? This is how we rate a system. It is the way we must rate a system. And, include mental hospitals...people forced into mental hospitals because they see and understand too much and fall apart. Then the system takes that person and breaks them further...with torture, isolation, drugs and life long stigma.
Brilliant interview with one of my favorite philosophers :) Thanks for uploading this
Can someone explain the title to me? I dont get how the ultimate act of love is betrayal.
Slavoj Zizek Superstar . I wish there was a musical with him as a character.
hahaha 23:25 he's catching the interviewer off-guard with v-for-vendetta
WSB played exactly by the rules regarding gamestop. Gamestop is a good company with a new leadership and good prospects for the future. The reason the stock went up so much was not WSB directly but rather indirectly. WSB was able to hold the stock price at a higher level anticipated by hedgefundmanagers. The shorts that the hedgefunds bought, that needed to be covered, then caused the spike in stock price. This is exactly playing by the rules. The hedgefunds are who aren't playing by the rules - that was the point which was missed in this video.
Not really, because in this case, "the rules" would say you shouldn't invest in a failing company
I don't get why the ultimate act of love is betrayal though...
I love Zizek. I cannot stop listening to him. I have even put him as background sound while studying hahahah
ive got zizek and hello kitty styled pc background
I knew I loved my current life partner when he simply said no to me. The ones who previously abused me would say yes, but keep it in their future arsnal to shame, control and manipulate. He isnt a red pill or MGTOW bitter type, he just knew I was in a bad place and didnt understand self respect. He did not want to give me a reson to fear him, and I always wished for someone to tell me what they need, because i do care, but I do not want it to be weaponized/currency based. If someone is scared.of telling me what they want, i assume: A: they have been horribly abused and are trying to survive, or (in the majority) B: they dont want me to know, so it's easy for them to make me the guilty party. With the former, I am their soft place to land. I will be patient while they learn the efficiency, honesty, love and power of asking for what they need. I am their cheerleader, and when they do that, even if its a disappointing answer I didnt prefer, i tellcthem i love them for askimg me for what they need, and i appreciate their respect using efficiency.
Love the egg carton.
does anyone know the algorithm he was talking about?
why would 'they' give it a name, anyway.
The guy cracked we he mentioned Rammstein! hahahaha
Can't blame him, I would also not be able to hold it together.
23:21
So, beat the financial-administrative class by replacing it with machines and algorithms, and give administrative power to state bureaucrats.
Slavoi looking more and more like mad old and wise Luke Skywalker
Oli just looks like he's holding back laughter the whole time. It might just be his face.
yeah it is kinda strange, at the first part he almost seemed like he was laughing at Z
But there's humour there .....on many levels... whilst having a bit of depth
He must be looking at something on the screen
Today is the day to be alive. - Slavoj
Slavoooooooj
Strongly disagree. The ultimate act of love is perennial loyalty. Lovalty.
If you betray the thing you claim to love it means you want to divorce yourself from it no matter how small that parting may be.
The ultimate act of love is betrayal... That is what, she said.
Well, I guess I've been loved a lot, meh.
Žižek likes Homeland?
Now I'm a pesimist!😵
I think the meaning of "interview" has just been redefined here. And so on and so on.... Kudos to Oli for keeping the headphones on for that long without his head spinning around. I love his perplexed face while Zizek is in his 18th minute of "answering" the first question and channeling his Hegelian self 😄📣
get them eggs in the fridge
Wonder if Zizek has watched Occupied yet, Skandi political crime drama, I thought it had some interesting portrayals of the factions at work in the world, perhaps a little superficial compared to homeland though.
"The Gang of Four"!!! yes. So true.
Slavoj nails my own thinking when he's talking about "what happens in V for Vendetta part 2?!" The left in the US needs to keep working towards a coherent vision of where we're actually going or what we're actually proposing. I see more of this sort of talk lately but still not enough, just in my opinion.
nature etcetc This problem is elementary already; water, soil, air quality...and quantity !
Half-dissident. He's not in prison yet.
Dude started from WallstreetBets then went to China/Singapore/Scandinavian countries then to US/UK political climate in the span of 20 mins... I forgot what's the question in the first place. Damn I love this man
"It may be the second round gets harsher" yikes
Its not over. stop saying its over, yeah I'm a bagholder, but do some research
Wall Street Bets self-reference is a pure play of signs.
Rick and Morty live action looking promising
Interviewing zizek is the easiest job in the world.
30:10 for all you members of the muscular class 💪
žižek zna juričana haha
Thank you so much for letting Zizek speak.
You know who isn't happy with this statement? Zizek's wife
Someone get Žižek to watch mr. robot on god
yessssssss
Slavoj "Neils Bohr" Zizek
Zizek implies that Communism is corruption for all, rather than the typical arrangement for a few special interests. But since corruption always has to be at the expense of someone else, it can't work for society as a whole.
a beautiful misread
Please, can you put English-Portuguese subtitles available in the videos? I am an admirer of the channel but I am not yet fully fluent in English sjsksksk this is it, if you can I thank you!
I don't, but I know some portuguese speaking lefties, I'll see if they are interested in organising something like that :)
@@alaspooryorick9946 ok, thanks, see then! there are so many interviews with slavoj zizek and other leftists that look good but that I can't follow completely due to my lack of fluency in english, such as his first JOE interview last year. (oh and, beautiful profile picture kkkk)
@@LeandroCosta-sz9cl Hahaha the only Portuguese I know is LULA LIVRE!!!!
@@alaspooryorick9946 HAHAHAHAHAH YEAH, finally he is fucking free now, his first government was responsible for giving my poor family social access, giving more access to health and education / public university, the Brazilian working class respects him, the same working class that was abandoned for 30 years since the end of the military dictatorship, Lula took the interests of workers into politics, although the media hates him.
I recently saw a video of Obama speaking ill of Lula, did I stay ???? I won't even comment on Obama's crimes.
Some good points on depression and death
PPP private public partnership hoax of the past....and now PPP is completely public. PPP is a social responsibility. Workers of the world .... fight. FIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you please invite Zizek again?
i see a contradiction in what zizek is saying here:
on the one hand he argues about the revolutionary imagination of WSB to realize that the game is rigged.... or that the god of the market is fragmented and self-referential.
on the other hand he seems to uphold the god of the market in that, algorithms will be doing all the allocation ....
perhaps if algorithms take over the 'animal spirits' of capitalism, can we still call it capitalism or some sort of ... new oikonomia?
Wow she loved me so fucking much....
What is the algorithm he is talking about?
Actually I know at least 5 of the in Sweden. They are called "Saving robots". You start an account, answer a few questions, put in some money and the "robot" trade and invest your money for you. I thought this was a common thing nowadays.
have immense respect for zizek but I think he is oversimplifying wsb
Zizek certainly is my 'soulmate', I claim.
However his take on the population 💣 is presenting a very weak stance. He's not openly speaking his mind or throwing out his opinion.
Me conclude, as he was seemingly surprised by this question, he hasn't thought this topic through.
We are too many and the plateau assumed might show that we are already far far out beyond all limits.
That's why "auto.exec.bat self regulating mechanism" such as virus and climate change gets triggered and does its JoB in slowly devastating, eradicating manner.
The biosphere changes undoubtedly and the foundation for humanoid carbon units won't be there any longer.
Who cares about microbes ?
Sorry, I don't chave time now to develop this further ~
I wonder what his perspective is on cryptocurrencies
Crypto currencies wont change shit
Ecological disastar and wild, useless speculation, I would guess.
It's the second time (to my knowledge) that Žižek cites Rammmstein's lyrics. This time was _Dalai Lama_ and another time it was _Links 2 3 4_ . At least somebody acknowledged how deep some lyrics from them are.
I wish he would got a better mic :D I can't understand him many times... Or his trasmission breaks up... He tends to put words together also! But I love this philosopher, he has so much good things!
Žižek⭐
16:10 red flag, cringe.
I have to disagree with zizek about this being pure speculation with no fundamental value, gamestop was a dieing brick and mortar retailer that started its transformation to ecommerce with ryan cohen made possible by the cash on hand produced by stores which were more often than not net positive, amc was a reopening play, way undervalued at the time and over shorted worth mentioning only a couple of days later amc recieved 50% capacity in new york one of their biggest markets and also raised enough cash to survive a year under pandemic circumstances according to the ceo adam aaron. Also an overlooked part is both of these brands are one of the most recognisable in the world now. Not that any of this is relevant just the trigger redditor in me.
14:06 almost :D
Host ADHD wow.
One of the best interviews with Zizak I advice everyone to watch this here is the link:
th-cam.com/video/CLGy129CmCQ/w-d-xo.html
No
Enemy - this is a most Lacanian Zizkianism. Gulag, Stalinism, HR and PR.
9 mins - bizarre he is talking about a robotracker, c.f. Malkiel's "A random walk down wall street"
The Perinnial question of the Left:
Who controls the Great Idea?
international cooperation...exactly. it is the great dream of the 1960s hippie generation. :)
Pot stocks
Does anyone know the App he mentioned? :)
Reddit
Robinhood
Constantly pointing out his small tiks is so annoying.
mate,delete him ...he speculating ,not Zizek
Slavoj is real, love his interpretation and contributing examples
But would you shake zizek hand? 🤚
5:49 Nice sound effect on the word chaos
do you want to eliminate emotion?
Slavojž
Coke is the real thing
People, do you know that Žižek is afraid to face the Illuminator in a public debate? Both from Slovenia. Slavoj, čemu se izogibaš, ali se res bojiš, ali pa se enostavno zavedaš da nisi dorasel? Ne bo hudega, bo pa zanimivo ...in poučno.
"The most dangerous philosopher in the West" and he is afraid of Illuminator? Well, in debate he should be. Vendar kar pogumno, Slavoj, ni sramota priznati da te Illuminator presega.
I like him but I really hope he'll never be in charge of finance
Brilliant
Singapoor dig deeper
very accurate pronunciation !! full marks !!
(Lisps, wheezes, sneezes, so-on-and-so-ons a few times while Gollum-regurgitating new ideas directly from the brain box, then coughs and says) Sorry.
more focus on Zizek alone, less of Joe nodding, smiling, looking back and forth trying to grasp Z. 😊
Don't look. Just listen.
Refreshing experience, I claim.
Sorry I chave time to go into this now ~
Very interested to see if he says anything about bitcoin. Surprisingly afaik he never has
I'm sure I've seen him talking about it with Yanis Varoufakis and agreeing that it's another iteration of the fantasy of apolitical money. If I remember where that was I'll link it :)
@@alaspooryorick9946 please do :)
@@alaspooryorick9946 interesting. It is ofcourse political because it depends on people recognizing its value and serves the function of distributing real resources amongst people who recognize that value. It’s different though because it is decentralized and immune to corruption in that way. Given how zizek talks about algorithms here I would think that that feature would offer something interesting to him.
privatization of commons...internet commons. facebook blocked trump. good.
The interviewer looks distracted often. If you are going to ask for a lecture, give the lecturer some respect.
I think he is looking at his pretty self and getting distracted 😂😂😂
as he growed old žižek became more conservative, leaning toward cristianity , european exclusivism and other stupidities, but with new normal he he fully slipped into support of of police-medicine state of exception no matter how more crazy it gets every day. it dont bothers him, hes only worry about his health.
so i dont think he has anithing worth to say anymore as intellectual .
mate,why u trolling him?
why he so agressive,calm down hi a little.4 me zizek like new born pshilopher
The most unrealistic thing about V for Vendetta is that the big mastermind behind the government guy exposes himself and gets killed. In a realistic scenario he would just stayed behind and see how things evolve in order to intervene later.
listen....looks like he talking with himself
any posibylity take my all words back?
i have no time to listen him till end.have some sense,but....Zizezek rools
