Brigitte Empire | Slavoj Žižek is Wrong About Trans People & Wokeness @BrigitteEmpire | Uploaded April 2023 | Updated October 2024, 24 minutes ago.
So, lots of people really love Slavoj Zizek's work, but he really fell off lately, and kinda, has been fallen off since the beginning if we're being honest. In this video we go through Zizek's background, and his most transphobic article yet, 'Wokeness is Here to Stay'. Forgive me if I get a bit uncharitable but, yeah, he's coming after me and mine with this one. Criticisms welcome. I fully expect to get dragged for this one and I'm interested to learn what for.
