/lit/ I normally don't shitpost, but I honestly can't help myself. I found this gem of an article over at the Brown Herald Daily by two professors about Zizek's lecture at their college. I can't believe that two educators at a university could not only miss entirely Zizek's point, but then go forward to publish a semi-academic critique about said misunderstanding.
Basically they say that he is a racist and trivializes the struggle of others by using jokes to get his point across. I know it is a meme that Zizek always calls for inaction, but ironically these fine people are literally forcing Slavoj into a complete state of inaction. How is he going to break down racist and hierarchical institutions by not mocking them? Answer that you english professors.
Anyways, read the article if you anons want to become enraged.
