Slavoj Zizek is 68

He died 20 years ago. The character/twitter handle currently associated with his name is merely a corrupted artefact of the process of the original Land's digital transcendence in the late 90's.

Look on the bright side, who does the right have?

Good!
Make place for the Holla Forums school of thought.

tbh I'm more worried about the right of the future. They seem to go full out feels > reals. Though hopefully that'll just hurt them in the end.

Sargon

Nuh-uh, user. They totally only believe in science and statistics. It's why they aren't racists but race realists instead :^)

end me

Hes a socialist.

...

Chomsky is immortal. He'll never die

What the fuck!? I thought he was younger than Molymeme.

That's okay, Naomi Klein is only 47

It's the cocaine

now you've jinxed it! he will die to night!

Graeber is 56

or maybe you don't know anybody younger because you don't fucking read and don't know shit

Wow, that's crazy OP! It's almost like it takes a long time to become an influential theorist! Hmm………

Why's she so cute, user?

Think anyone from Holla Forums would replace them in the new wave of leftist thinkers? E-celeb or lurker.

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck…

He calls himself a centrist nowadays.
GamerGate ran it's course and aut-right took it over. He no longer needs to pretend to be a "sane leftist" to cater to them, anymore.

I had to check this. I legit thought he was in his 40s.

a challenger appears

I might actually cry when Chomsky dies

That's pretty gay.

...

This is now a: "times a leftist died and you teared up" thread

Anytime now… anytime…

I mean… Pol Pot was ok, right?

Don't worry boys, I think I'm really shaping up to be the next leading leftist intellectual.

I cringe and weep internally when my liberal friends go on about how great it was that Castro died. If I could have a superpower, I would want it to be the ability to either slap the stupid out of people, or to be able to hit someone with a book and suddenly they've basically read the book multiple times.

He never said anything remotely like that and you're an idiot for gobbling up conservative propaganda.

Michael Hudson maybe? Hard to tell if he's a Marxist but he definitely loathes mainstream economics.

I think I felt a little too much when Castro died.

In 20-40 years I fucking bet some of the nerds on this board or left twitter will end up being as big as them.

Gonna go for my PhD next year. I'll try and make you proud comrades.

Please no bully

That man is older than you can imagine.

isn't he in his late 30s
like damn i hope i age like this guy, it'd really put my worries to rest.
sitting in a care home tricking the nurses with "i'm here to see my grandpa"

He's alt-right now.
Sort of like how all Trots become American conservatives.

he'll reach at least 90

Not even M-L but this Holla Forums vid hits me right in the feels. youtube.com/watch?v=8PQTA_8b7fQ

Is that Gladiator?

new great minds will rise with time, nothing to worry about.

I'm not worried about new 'talent' to emerge but rather that unfortunately we all are going to die.

I am kinda ML and this one made me cry.

I was drunk though tbh.

forgot my shitposting flag

Zizek will probably die before any of them due to a coke overdose.

can't wait tbh

really makes you think huh

think its lotr sad music

Lenin was 29 when he published Imperialism: The Highest Stage of capitalism

I'm an ironic accelerationist xeno-primitivist fite me

That doesn't surprise me. It's not very good tbh.

Back in Lenin's and Marx's time, there was no "free market of ideas" the way there is today.

Back then, you had to print at least an article to express an opinion. Mainly you had to write a book.

Nowadays, every faggot in the world will make a YT video, FB story or long ass post on leftypol. The way to express ideologies has changed, while the structures are old.

I trully believe there will be some sort of major change and emergence of new thinkers in the next 10 years, but for now we are doomed to exist on a fringe chinese image board.

One of you needs to publish your manifesto to the union head already.

kek, I got this so wrong, what he published at age 29 was "The Development of Capitalism in Russia"
