Is Donald Trump really a fascist - or has the word lost all meaning in modern political discourse? In the age of Trump, “fascism” has become one of the most explosive and contested terms in politics. Critics argue it's an accurate description of the former president's rhetoric and leadership style, while supporters see it as reckless hyperbole designed to demonize him. Renowned philosopher and psychoanalyst Slavoj Žižek joins Piers Morgan to discuss his new book, Liberal Fascism, and whether the label truly applies to Donald Trump - or whether something more complicated is happening beneath the surface of modern liberal politics. Later, Piers is joined by internet commentator Warren Smith, who offers a very different perspective on the debate. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Wegen Epstein-FilesEin Kommentar von Paul Clemente.Wer sich mit Machtkritik beschäftigt, ob als Aktivist oder als Forschender, kommt an Noam Chomsky kaum vorbei. Jahrzehntelang sezierte der Linguistik-Professor die Sprache der Machthaber, machte deutlich, wie Sprache als Instrument von Propaganda und Manipulation funktioniert.Vor allem begriff er: Auch in demokratischen Staaten ist Berichterstattung keineswegs neutral, sondern Propaganda. Die „stellt Zustimmung her“, durch das Filtern von Informationen. Zweck des Ganzen: Die Interessen der Eliten zu fördern.Es war die Aktivistin Amy Goodman, die aus Chomskys Analysen eine wirkmächtige Konsequenz zog: Den Propaganda-Müll des Mainstreams zu zerlegen? Das reicht nicht aus. Es müssen neue, alternative Medien entstehen, die nicht nur Kritik üben, sondern auch neue Perspektiven eröffnen.Lange vor Etablierung des Internets versuchte Goodman die Etablierung einer Gegen-Öffentlichkeit in den Bereichen TV und analogen Zeitungen. Eine Medienarbeit, die auf Chomskys Theorien aufbaute, mit dem sie längere Interviews geführt hatte. Kurzum, Chomskys Arbeit ist für jedes oppositionelle News-Portal bedeutsam. Egal, welche politische Richtung es vertritt.Dann kam die erste Enttäuschung: Wir schreiben das Jahr 2020, auf globaler Ebene entsteht eine Lockdown-Diktatur. Vielleicht hoffte mancher, dass Chomsky den Propaganda-Müll von Politik und konformistischen Forschern entsorgen würde. Aber es kam anders. Der 92-jährige vertrat die Seite der Unterdrücker. Zwar beschrieb er die Pandemie als „weiteres kolossales Versagen der neoliberalen Version des Kapitalismus“, gleichzeitig warb er jedoch für „Social Distancing“: Die Ungeimpften sollten bitte Zuhause bleiben. Wie sie ans Essen kommen? Ist deren Problem.Das Polit-Magazin Cicero konstatierte, dass„die Krise offenbar auch einstige Lichtgestalten der Gesellschaftskritik dazu zwingt, ihre früheren Überzeugungen über den Haufen zu werfen.“Tatsächlich befand Chomsky sich in guter Gesellschaft. Man erinnere nur an Slavoj Zizek, Peter Sloterdijk, Judith Butler und Jürgen Habermas. Deren Verrat erfuhr natürlich keine Skandalisierung. Nein, Mainstream-Medien und Zero Covid-Zombies waren happy über den unerwarteten Support.Dann kam die Publikation der Epstein-Files: Die dokumentieren den persönlichen Mailkontakt mit dem Linguistik-Professor und seiner Frau Valéria. Neben gemeinsamen Abendessen soll Epstein bei der Klärung eines Finanzproblems in Bezug auf Chomskys Kinder geholfen haben. Last but not least: Zwei Fotos. Eins zeigt den Sprachwissenschaftler mit Epstein in dessen Privatflugzeug. Auf dem zweiten betreibt er Konversation mit Steve Bannon....https://apolut.net/verlag-cancelt-noam-chomsky-von-paul-clemente/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Does the past even exist anymore?Quantum mechanics has long unsettled our understanding of matter and measurement. But what if its implications reach further — into history, politics, and the very structure of reality itself? If the present can retroactively reshape the past it emerged from, what does that mean for how we act, how we remember, and how we govern?These are not merely theoretical puzzles. In a world where liberal democracy appears to be fracturing, where AI and climate change defy traditional political categories, and where new authoritarian currents are emerging from thinkers like Curtis Yarvin in the West and Wang Huning in the East, the question of whether reality offers any coherent ground for political action has never felt more urgent.Few thinkers are willing to hold all of this together at once — to move from Niels Bohr to Stalinism, from Lacanian psychoanalysis to the collapse of the political centre, without flinching. Slavoj Žižek does precisely that. In his new book Quantum History: A New Materialist Philosophy (Bloomsbury, 2025), Žižek argues that incompleteness is not a failure of knowledge but a feature of existence itself — and that this demands an entirely new way of thinking about history and politics.Slavoj Žižek is a Hegelian philosopher, Lacanian psychoanalyst, and one of the most provocative intellectuals of our time.

Text: https://processthis.substack.com/p/not-perfect-just-forgiven-f1f Amid ICE terror and Epstein files in February 2026, my colleague Tripp Fuller asked if I'd write something on reactionaries, evangelicals, and fascism. Draws on critical theology, political philosophy, and psychoanalysis from Wilhelm Reich, Theodor Adorno, Gillian Rose, Louis Althusser, Walter Benjamin, Slavoj Zizek, and Robert Paxton. Builds on some arguments from my 2019 book Against: What Does the White Evangelical Want?

Slavoj Žižek memandang ideologi bukan sekadar kebohongan yang menipu kita, melainkan seperti kacamata yang tidak sadar kita gunakan untuk melihat dunia. Kita sering merasa sudah bebas dari doktrin, padahal perilaku kita sehari-hari—seperti berbelanja atau berdonasi secara pasif—justru memperkuat sistem yang kita kritik. Inilah yang disebutnya sebagai interpassivity, di mana kita merasa seolah-olah sudah berbuat sesuatu agar kenyataan yang sebenarnya tidak perlu berubah secara mendasar. Inti dari pemikiran Žižek adalah keberanian untuk menghadapi apa yang ia sebut sebagai the Real, yakni retakan atau kegagalan dalam sistem yang sering kali kita tutupi dengan fantasi indah. Perubahan sosial yang sejati tidak datang dari sekadar memperbaiki gejala, tetapi dari sebuah the Act atau "Tindakan" yang berani merombak aturan main secara total. Tindakan ini menuntut kita untuk berani menghadapi rasa tidak nyaman dan meninggalkan zona aman demi menciptakan struktur masyarakat yang benar-benar baru. Pada akhirnya, jalan menuju masa depan yang lebih baik menurut Žižek dimulai dengan keberanian untuk mengatakan "tidak" terhadap tekanan sistem yang memaksa kita untuk selalu sibuk tanpa arah. Melalui strategi subtractive politics, kita diajak untuk berhenti sejenak dan menolak berpartisipasi dalam sandiwara sosial yang semu. Dengan melakukan proses unlearning atau belajar melepaskan keterikatan pada cara hidup lama, kita dapat membuka ruang bagi kemungkinan-kemungkinan baru yang sebelumnya dianggap mustahil oleh sistem saat ini.

In this episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, we sit down with artist Tom Pazderka — a Czech-American painter, sculptor, writer and thinker whose journey from communist Czechoslovakia to America as a teenager has deeply shaped his practice. Born in Český Brod in 1981 and emigrating to the U.S. at age 12, Pazderka says those early years of dual identity and upheaval still echo in his work. LUM+4LUM+4MeetFactory+4We explore his recent achievements — his solo exhibition at the Carolyn Glasoe Bailey Foundation and his award of a residency at Taft Gardens — and how his practice engages with themes of memory, ideology, home and the stark beauty of process. (Pazderka often burns wood panels, layers ash and oil paint and works in monochrome to evoke both the material and metaphoric weight of his experience.) Bender Gallery+1We also talk about how Ojai has become both studio and sanctuary — how the landscape and quiet enable his reflections, and how this community intersects with his work of reinvention, belonging and creation. Join us for a rich conversation about art, exile, finding home and making something new out of what we leave behind.We also talked about El Chapo Traphouse, Slavoj Zizek and Metal Gear Solid. We did not talk about Rene Girard, Martin Heidegger or Grand Theft Auto 6.Learn more about Tom and his art at https://tompazderka.com/home.html

Durante a gravação deste episódio, registaram-se alguns problemas de rede que afectaram o áudio. Foi como em todas as eleições: houve vencedores vencedores, vencedores vencidos e os outros de que não reza a história. Montenegro deu mais uma vitória eleitoral ao PSD, nalguns casos com a habilidade de cooptar gente de outras proveniências: até uma antiga autarca comunista. De tal modo que os dois nomes de que se fala para a presidência da Associação Nacional de Municípios, no rescaldo das autárquicas, são os de Santana Lopes e Isaltino Morais, dois antigos barões laranja que abandonaram o partido e foram agora a votos como trunfos pródigos do PSD. Entretanto, com o lavar dos cestos a nível local, instala-se em força a vindima das presidenciais. E quando o PS se prepara para apresentar o apoio formal à candidatura de António José Seguro, o Expresso descobriu que, entre os apoiantes de Passos Coelho, Seguro é visto como o candidato ideal. Socialistas e passistas, estranho caldo. Será o empurrão que faltava ao candidato ou o beijo da mulher-aranha?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As ChatGPT and AI increase their presence in our lives, have we interrogated enough what this means for, and about, our collective psyche?In one of the most original critiques of ChatGPT, Slovenian Lacanian philosopher Alenka Zupančič interprets large language models as a form of our collective unconscious that has absorbed all our discourse at the expense of the subject, shutting down emancipatory possibilities. She analyses the Right's use of ChatGPT, the evolution of irony, and more.

El cacao, ese ingrediente mágico que transforma los modestos granos de una planta en el chocolate que casi todos amamos, es uno de los productos de mayor demanda en todo el mundo. Desde el niño que sueña con una fábrica de chocolate como la de Willy Wonka, hasta los chefs más prestigiosos, pocos pueden resistirse a la tentación. Pero, ¿qué pasa cuando el cacao enfrenta una crisis histórica que amenaza con encarecer y escasear este dulce tesoro? Hoy en Observador Global te contamos por qué el mundo está al borde de una tormenta chocolatera y una crisis histórica: los precios del cacao han subido más del 50% en pocos meses y la producción está en riesgo debido a factores climáticos y enfermedades que afectan a los principales países productores en África occidental. Para colmo, el chocolate es uno de esos productos vendibles por las grandes empresas del sector en un alarde de lo que Slavoj Zizek definió como “capitalismo cultural”, pero que detrás esconde pobreza, injusticias y deforestación.

Send us a textThis was originally released as a Patrons Bonus Episode on the 27th May2o24 on Patreon.Follow me on;|Episode Summary: In this episode, I explore the contentious intersections between modern and postmodern philosophies, considering Slovenian philosopher, Slavoj Žižek's critiques, along side my interpretation of the biblical concept of wisdom. We look at how these world views interact and challenge one another, particularly in the context of contemporary societal issues.Key Concepts:Modernism: A 20th-century movement emphasizing experimentation, abstraction, and subjective experience across various fields including literature, visual arts, music, philosophy, politics, and social issues. It arose from a sense of alienation from traditional morality and social norms.Postmodernism: An intellectual stance characterized by scepticism towards both religion as well as scientific rationalism and objective reality. It questions all "grand narratives", rejects stable meanings, and emphasizes relativism and pluralism.Slavoj Žižek: A Slovenian philosopher known for his work on ideology, Marxism, political theory, psychoanalysis, culture, and theology. He is critical of the contemporary appropriation of the term "wisdom.Biblical Wisdom: Rooted in Scripture, biblical wisdom I content is a divine gift characterized by moral purity and spiritual discernment. It transcends human understanding and emphasizes a deep, ongoing relationship with God.Main Discussion Points:Biblical Perspective on Wisdom:Tension Between Worldly and Divine Wisdom:Postmodernism vs. Biblical Wisdom:Modern Social Issues and Biblical Morality:Critique of Simplified Morality:Superficial Engagement and True Transformation:The Role of Ideologies:Christian Call to Authenticity:Conclusion: By engaging with complex philosophical and moral questions through the lens of biblical wisdom, we can seek deeper understanding and live more meaningful lives. This episode encourages listeners to explore these intersections critically and thoughtfully, always seeking to align their understanding with God's eternal truths.Scripture References:James 3:171 Corinthians 1:20-22Proverbs 3:5-6Colossians 2:3Isaiah 5:20Matthew 22:37-392 Corinthians 13:5Proverbs 2:3-52 Peter 3:18Genesis 1:27Galatians 3:281 John 1:8Revelation 3:15-16James 2:17Isaiah 58:6Ephesians 6:12John 8:32Matthew 7:3-51 Corinthians 3:192 Timothy 3:5Matthew 6:24Matthew 7:26-27Isaiah 55:2Matthew 23:27-28Matthew 6:24Proverbs 3:5-6John 14:6Matthew 23:24Matthew 6:24Matthew 5:6Support the showFor an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

Get access to The Backroom Exclusive episodes on Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/OneDime.⁠In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Michael Downs (known for his Blog “The Dangerous Maybe”) - a working-class intellectual autodidact philosopher who recently published the book “Capital VS Timenergy: A Žižekian Critique of Nick Land.”  In this episode, we discuss the themes of his book, which cover the ideas of Nick Land and Curtis Yarvin (known as “Mencius Moldbug”), as well as the challenge of right-wing accelerationism. We also discuss “Timeenergy” as the basis of socialism and examine the question of whether socialism will be a “conservative” movement in opposition to the constant, accelerating change of capitalism. In The Backroom, Mikey and I discuss the long-awaited debate between Slavoj Zizek and Nick Land, Mikey's experience meeting Zizek, and some philosophical questions regarding the rationale for socialism.

Humanity and the gods of natureDo animals and nature have an ethical life of their own? Must, or should, we extend our morality to non-human entities, or are their limits to notions of ethics?Tune in to hear three world-famous philosophers on ethical issues discuss these questions from their different perspectives: Peter Singer has made a name for himself defending the rights and feelings of all sentient creatures; Slavoj Zizek enjoys turning established ideas on their head; and Nancy Sherman always brings insights from her beloved Aristotle and the stoics.

They consider one of the film's core propositions – that cinema is an instruction in how and what to desire. This leads them through Zizek's (and their own) interpretations of classic Hitchcock films, Alien, Blue Velvet, and beyond. More broadly, they discuss whether psychoanalysis is essential for understanding film, reading movies like books, the allure of exegesis, and more.Have you noticed that Freud is back?

Ryan and Todd analyze Slavoj Zizek's contribution in what may be his magnum opus--The Parallax View. They discuss how he builds on the concept of parallax as originally articulated by Kojin Karatani and its implication for Zizek's understanding of politics.
