There is an extremely good reason for Lacanians being so "dogmatic" - You actually have to open your mind in order to grasp "Ecrits." Even Obama has read Nietzsche, and everyone's been forced to read Aristotle, but Lacan? Some of the most brilliant thinkers in the world muddle up Lacanese or completely avoid it... So, it's up to us Lacanians to bring his ideas to the surface. I think Zizek does an awesome job.

@theindiekidable Why are all Lacanians communists? Jacques Lacan was influenced by Karl Marx and Lacan's work really does reflect a lot of premises of Marxism and materialism.

@cvvemuri I know, I was waiting for someone to yell out Staten's Wittgenstein and Derrida. Such an ill book.

I think anyone who has read Lacan, knows how seductive it is. I think it is correct up to a point, that point being the matheme - wtf? I think that's when Lacan must have forgot his medicine and decided mathematise - i.e. totatalise - human psychology in to faux-mathematical formula. Its not exactly possible. And why are all Lacanians Communists?

@raisecain My comment is, or the video? lol...I agree if it's about the latter, not so much about the first. But thx! I was looking at your artwork, pretty amazing too. If it weren't for the fucking winters in Montreal, I would love to be in an environment like that. The east coast has no avant garde tendencies whatsoever.
