\u017di\u017eek in Nov 2010 London<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Multiculturalism<\/a> each particular culture and some legal space separate from each other
\nHere is the story of Jewish Lesbians with purple hair and Muslim women <\/a>together in Bilan as an example of universality, solidarity in struggle.<\/p>\n

Tragedy of Multiculturalism<\/a>
\nThe whole space is constructed with a clear class dimension.\u00a0 The middle class blaming poor red neck working class.\u00a0 The problem when we fight racism don’t focus on the poor confused guys, his son comes home beaten, things are getting stolen from the field and so on … nothing is offered them but just blame.\u00a0 Then we get new rise of anti-immigrant politics with a strong base in poor and working class.\u00a0 We need to break this alliance with anti-immigrant nationalism and working class.<\/p>\n

An example of a dirty joke <\/a>in order to make the point that this is how you reach out to the other, the gypsy.\u00a0 Its not just being open to the other, we should be open to the other in the sense of participating in the same shared struggle.<\/p>\n

Anti-Capitalism<\/a>
\nfake moral anti-capitalism<\/p>\n

Ruthless presentation of actual deadlock: Jack Bauer 24.\u00a0 Season 7.\u00a0 Shift from external to internal enemy.\u00a0 In final episode, Bauer thinks he’s dying, and asks a Muslim priest to his death bed, and says with simple dignity, he’s my friend.\u00a0 What I like it renders open Jack Bauer’s ethical confusion.\u00a0 There is no easy solution offered, no I was doing it for the common good.\u00a0 There is no humanizing, not its a tough job somebody has to do it, we pay the price for it, NO.\u00a0\u00a0 Ethical political contradiction, legal power and obscene counterpart, there is no way out, no way to feel good morally, I just have to live with it, all humanization is disgusting like Speilberg’s Munich.\u00a0 If we remain within framework of existing coordinates thare is no way out.\u00a0 Present total ethical confusion, noone is covered here.<\/p>\n

I agree with Tariq Ali’s critique of Obama, but its a leftist cheap shot, making left feel good, look Obama didn’t do anything, ha this is typical.\u00a0 But \u017di\u017eek says this is too easy.
\nAnimal Rights<\/a>\u00a0 Derrida, primordial scene, the primordial gaze of the other, Levinas excludes animals.\u00a0 \u017di\u017eek I saw a photo of a cat …
\nWhat kind of a monster did the cat sees, what were we for the cat, this monstrosity is something to think about.\u00a0 What are we humans for animals.\u00a0 What kind of monsters are we for them.\u00a0 <\/a><\/p>\n

Critique of Badiou\u00a0 <\/a>politics of subtraction, establish free territories outside of state power and use violence only as a defensive measure.\u00a0 Badiou goes one step too far, when you don’t have violence in a society, you already have violence to maintain this non-violence.\u00a0 Badiou is conceding too much to the enemy.\u00a0 Class struggle is already violence, peace in capitalism is violence.\u00a0 We should become aware of seeing this violence, which complicates things, we cannot get out of violence.<\/p>\n

\u017di\u017eek’s Jon Holloway story<\/a> that he repeats again in Zagreb 2013.\u00a0 Capitalists love these non-commercial zones where people relax.\u00a0\u00a0 Liberated zones.\u00a0 Chiapas non-violent moral authority, now everyone loves them because they are no longer a threat.\u00a0 Islands outside brutal commodification makes capitalism happy.<\/p>\n

Here is the Question and Answer<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 The infamous quote about Hitler<\/a> not being violent enough.\u00a0 And here is Ghandi<\/a><\/p>\n
