Why does Zizek get called a "fascist" or a "crypto-fascist"?

Why does Zizek get called a "fascist" or a "crypto-fascist"?

I get it's probably just idpolers who are mad at him for not being PC, but what is their reasoning for calling him a "crypto-fascist" as opposed to woman hater or whatever?

The core tenant of communism is open borders. If this gets challenged, the foundation of communism is undermined and you're left with the idea of what socialism would be if it were in closed borders. Only one country has attempted this in history - Germany. Hence the association with fascism.

no

What was Stalin's idea of socialism in one country then?

He wanted the whole world as one nation, hence the program of the USSR, a forced union of several nationalities

nice shitpost friend

why are nazis so fucking imbecile

Zizek is the Left-Wing Dugin

prove me wrong

Socialism has never existed, comrade!

The Nazis were corporate capitalists. That being said
Zizek is probably closer to a tankie than a fascist if anything. He criticizes open borders/idpol leftists and current consumer shit as well

Google Erich Honecker

Hitler's Germany was the first (and only) nation to be socialist under the original Marxist meaning, not the state capitalist "socialist" model of russia.

Thats why he sent all the Marxists to work camps right sweety

It's literally just this. He's an unrepentant Eurocentric, and it triggers them beyond belief.

Yeah, I see the "Crypto-Fash" term thrown around a lot by certain twitter Id-Pol types when they talk about Zizek, Chapo, DSA, acobin and of course Holla Forums. I assume that they mean that folks like Zizek might be couching reactionary and chauvinistic thought in 'Left" critique.

They also tend to have this funny attitude that folks that aren't as keen on Id-Pol are all newbies and poseurs that only joined the Left after Boiney Sandals campaign. It all comes off as being very cliquey, the way that they disparage folks as ow being as hip and radical as they are.

I think that it's wrong headed to look at any Left critiques of Intersectional, idealistic, and particularist politicts as just an attack from "Crypto-Fash" brocialists and the like. That said, I think that the Class-based, materialists, universalist thought of the Leftism of yesteryear shouldn't be readopted 100% as it was by the modern Left, in fact I think it's apparent that that isn't even possible given the state of the Left today. I actually think that the Id-Polers are right to think that complete abandonment of Identity issues is basically reactionary opportunism, but they themselves defend their own kind of reactionary opportunism that has led to Id-Pol's gains in Universities the world over. A robust Modern Left needs to synthesize these disparate tendencies if it is to gain any prominence on the world stage. Holla Forums might not like how the Left will look at that point, but out of all the folks that the Id-Pol tyes call Fash, they might have a point with Holla Forums.

Hitler's socialism was pro private property and Marx's ideal is no property

This why I love Zizek

read a book

emancipate yourself from ignorance

Why didn't he abolish it then?

They don't understand him.

im from pol and i really, really like the sniff guy
they call him fascist because he is speaking the truth, because what he is saying makes sense, because they have no arguments, and because 'muh fascists reeeeeeeeeeeee' is all they have going on for them in their awful ugly irrelevant impotent lives

he sniffs out the bullshit
he puts can smell the bullshitters (he calls it ideology)
and he puts them in their fucking place

I like this. Stick around.

When people from pol say he's telling the truth, it's probably not a good sign.

because he thinks the LGBTQ shit is hilarious and doesn't care about women's lib shit at all anymore (because no one should).

ok, i watched the man-hound's movie and this is basically what i've got:

zizek is a cool guy and aint afraid of nothing

He's only called that by redditors who are mad cause he likes dirty jokes and "endorsed" trump

Nice bait.Not even Holla Forumsyps are this dumb.

If I've learned anything about what fascism is to people on reddit or leftbook it's that fascism can be anything from socialism with political incorrectness to people chanting pepe waving Kek flags, to the mainstream GOP.
