@samanbandana

you managed to use cyclical reasoning and an ad hominem attack in the same stroke. zizek is talking about the commons of ecology and economy etc., not communism, as it were. until you are ready to entertain the entirety of someones argument, leave it be.

@samanbandana "marxists have nothing to contribute but apparently you are not intelligent enough to get it. they had decades to prove their ideology works but it didnt and they kept failing"

Are you talking about the Soviet Union? Nobody really thinks that was a Marxist state... it was a corrupt socialist fascist state.

[samanbandana]

i had watched his talks with julian assange and his other talks and as i said...nag nag nag and i had a very good point when i said marxists have nothing to contribute but apparently you are not intelligent enough to get it. they had decades to prove their ideology works but it didnt and they kept failing and still they are saying that their way of thinking is the best.

zizek is correct in his reproach for clinton's, and many others, urge for a concretion of the demands from the occupy movement. we are approaching deadlocks in economy, ecology, intellectual property, genealogical identity, the list goes on. there is no way for one person to remedy all of this and so out of that very lack, a dialogue must occur. part of the movement is the very creation communal political space because none exists. the only clear party line so far is that of wealth distrubution
