Tfw Zizek is 67 years old

iktf

do leftists live forever or something

why do they all look so young
even Chomsky the old fart is still going strong and 88 years old

He looks about 30 years younger.

it is a bit weird isn't it. they're all basically still doing talks and producing new material. my grandpa's that age and sits in his armchair all day and can't put his own socks on.

maybe its the combination of freeing yourself from the burdens of capitalist ideology while simultaneously profiting off of the medical and lifestyle advancements of the modern world

tfw when everybodys favorite liberal anarchist will die in your life time

The next couple of years will be the worst, lads. I'm not ready to lose Zizen and Harvey in one go… I'll miss our based geography-political economy man…

truly a great guy

Chesnais and Harvey were the main theoreticians studied on my Geography class… It didn't even feel like "Geography" (like it was teached in highschool - ie. lel lets study rocks).

It was amazing.

Any up and coming talent to replace them?

You're thinking geology there, not geography.

Soon

I'm not kidding. Geography in high school was literally that. It was named "Geography" but, yes, geology was what was studied.

who hyped for /ourboy/?

look at this kid.He will either end up another gynoed out idpol feminist or will go full fascist.

sad

A more class consciouss approach would be realizing that you are supposed to carry on the torch, you faggots. The "read theory" meme is incomplete: it is either you or possibly no one who will continue their journey. You pay your respects not by crying over their inevitable deaths, but by learning to be able to further their projects in the service of liberating the working class.

He's just reading what his parents tell him to.

I was like him when I was like 10-12 years old and this kid has more knowledge about communism than I did back then. Still a commie.

it's kinda clear in some of the videos that his parents are feeding him this stuff but it's better than being fed far-right nonsense, though i hope they allow room for him to decide whether or not he wants to pursue this. i thought i liked far-right mumbo jumbo until i was 10 because my dad made it seem like it made the most sense.
but, regardless of parental interaction and interference, he is still a commie and /ourguy/. he'll grow more knowledgeable with time.

...

he wont
in his most recent vid he downgraded himself to a 'socialist'

maybe it's because he thinks socialism is necessary before full communism….? i hope at least

Inb4 he releases a "why we need Nazbol" video

Can you dumbasses stop paying sensationalist-driven attention to some kid.

He even said that Michelle should be the next president because she is black and female. He's also said that "communism" is about sharing money.

Not to damn him.
Just who gives a shit?

You're gonna feel pretty silly when he starts defending the Lion of Damascus, comrade

Why do people get so fucking excited over what a kid says?

He didn't say anything of value. If you care, send him pdfs of socialist literature and that'll be the end of that.

Don't fuck with me nazbol!

I've been wondering, does it seem to anyone else there's a sort of cult of youth at the moment?

I mean, there's always one, but in my mindset at the moment - I notice - It basically seems that once I hit 30 that's it. I'm dead. Not dead literally, but in some more abstract sense.

So the fact it's getting closer and closer becomes increasingly worrying.

Sometimes I see the Zizek youtube videos and it disappoints me. He is just the average intellectual and sometimes he just go full autist and start saying autistic things. He could be my friend or something.

For only being 3 years younger than Trump he looks like he's about 40 or something. No joke. I guess it's because he doesn't look like a retarded frog.

Hold me brother.

DELET THIS

Nobody. Philosophy has been killed off by the education system (neoliberal or otherwise) and the general ADHD culture. And no, seemingly more people consuming philosophy books doesn't mean shit. You need a proper environment to develop good thinkers out of mere readers. People have a youtube-tier approach to thought nowadays.

...

This. Fuck Badiou, fuck Althusser
Gimme dat old time Marx/Lenin/Trotsky and theoretical rigor fam

Don't trust Satan's lies.

What are you exactly talking about with ADHD culture? The way social media plays with our brain's reward system and shapes our brains to digest industrialized and shitty instrumental info-tainment?

Whats exactly adhd culture?

I think that's what he means. Soundbyte culture, information delivered in short, sensationalized bursts of barely useful data.

...

hopefully Zizek will spend his later years developing his jazz career

I think keeping an active mind and body helps.

It's just a bit of fun, la.
