Respect for Zizek, he is one of the last truly free thinkers out there. He doesn't let left-wing and right-wing ideologists fool him. They want to put everyone in either of those categories, and they don't understand that politics is more complex than "us against them".
@@Rompelstaump Marxism's chief critique is the power dynamic of capital over labor, the PMC over the working class. You're conflating two things (refugees/working class) that are not related within the sphere of what Zizek is talking about here.
This guy is articulating issues that l've been struggling with for a while. He is able to expound on stuff that the average Joe can't find the words to express, including me. Just started listening to this dude and am so impressed .
Damn right he is! We should think about that before making over-generalised conclusions. If you don't agree with Israel 's politics does not mean that you are antisemitic. If you don't agree with immigration policy doesn't mean that you are a right wing supporter. Etc...
A free thinker & a genius. Very rare sort of person. His ticks could be a form of tourettes or just something he does to counter anxiety or whatever - like when people fiddle with their hands at interviews. That doesn't make him any less of a genius. A lot of super-geniuses are known to have been a bit 'weird'
@@sue8536 Zizek doesn’t do any drugs. He has had nervous ticks all his life, and they are further exacerbated by speaking English. Watch a video of Zizek speaking French or his native Slovenian
I myself am middle-eastern (Iranian) and sth that is surprisingly being ignored about middle-easterners (Especially with Arabs) is the fact that we ourselves are quite right leaning! There are Turkish gangsters in Germany who kill the Turks who married non-Turks and when asked why they killed their fellow Turk, they usually say things like "Because we shall protect our kin". They famously refuse to assimilate into Germany's culture by choice! Of course not all Turks.. I am not for racism. Even middle-easterners cringe at this term "Islamophobia". I think Muslim-phobia is more of a problem. How the hell is this region supposed to progress when we can't even criticize Muslims OUTSIDE the middle-east? Of course we should accept and respect them as a part of society but acceptance and respect makes sense when it goes both ways. Go to the most Islamic country where this religion came from (Saudi Arabia) that has been isolated and untouched for the most part. Ask them about gender segregation and the LGBT stuff then you see how Arab culture is narrow and close minded for the most part and you keep selling them weapons! They are one of the obvious root of the problem but there is more sanctions on the average Iranian who is more open-minded than the average Saudi Arabian who supports their murderous regime. At least in Iran we are shouting that we are not his barbaric regime. This forced integration is NOT an answer. Especially this image of all middle-easterners being easily offended Muslims who we should avoid offending and only react to when they go ISIS mode. I honestly don't know whose side to take ....
It's so atrocious. Why can't they fix their own country. Instead you take from those citizens who did the "right" suffering and tears over generations. It's our own government who did this to America. They have slavery and native atrocities that haven't been resolved. How do genocides happen? When a population of people are assumed to take from the people of that country/states' members.
How they can they fix their countries when the USA, Britain, and France etc constantly destroy them via Imperialism, coups, election interference. Destabilize countries so you can install puppet regimes that will help your rich donors. No respect for national sovereignty or self determination.
Zizek is only partly right. Many so called refugees come from places or nations that are relatively speaking just doing fine. Some of those places are even tourist destinations (from Morocco and Egypt to India). But even when it's true, most of the time there doesn't exist an individual reason to seek asylum in the West. It's clearly defined international who has the right for asylum and who not, the problem is that the system gets thwarted by moronic activists, ideologues, and those who benefit personally from an influx of refugees. And of course, by those who actually want mass migration into the West... Google: "BBC EU should undermine national homogeneity says UN migration chief"
The Radical Revolution: "Stop memeing about Zizek and comment on his message instead." Also The Radical Revolution: **starts videos with some massive sniffs**
At 6.50, he's right it was over 1,000, in total it was almost 19,000 including sexual assaults in Rotherham in 1 year alone. 1,000 in Cologne on New Years eve 2016
What a stupid fucking comment. The wall was a symbol of oppression, so they tore it tf down. If I pissed in your Cheerios and killed your dog and fucked your wife (consensually) and left a note telling you: “Hey! I pissed in your Cheerios and killed your dog and fucked your wife (consensually),” would you leave the note up because notes have no purpose or significance and you could ignore it?
That wasn't his point, his point was that there are better ways to deal with fleeing immigrants than just walls, you can start by not trying to invade countries which those immigrant feels from.
I'm not sure about european politics but most fellow right wing populist and conservative socialist like myself have no issue with helping immigrants my argument against immigration is that mass migration will create more racial discrimination, displace workers, and large carbon pollution but I do agree with Zizek we have to solve the issues that created refugees and mass migration but I would solve those issues while also making laws limiting the amount of immigrants we bring in the left needs to talk about these issues and make compromises with the right or they will just allow the far-right to have unlimited ammunition against leftism in America the left is practically dead most "leftist" are in support of Biden who is a right wing warmonger
That's the thing though isn't it, I recognize that America often has a part to play in disruption overseas but why harm the American working people for the failures and corrupt decisions made by the elite? Ultimately these people let in will become voters who help keep certain politicians in power and not rely on the citizen voting bloc anymore. Capitalism benefits from mass and illegal immigration not workers, Cesar Chavez knew that half a century ago. Marx knew that in the late 1800s. Hell, even the folks who started Chaz in Seattle knew that which is why they made barricades to keep certain people out. Also, I've never met anyone else who considered themselves a "conservative socialist". I identify with that term as well since my social views tend to be more conservative leaning, especially my cultural views. "Cultural" meaning the unofficial ethical code the people adhere to as opposed to actual government policy.
@@RextheRebel I agree the American worker isn't to blame the blame goes to two parties and the lobbyists who push for every war. I have identified as a conservative socialist this term is as old as Marx but he often called it Bourgeois socialism it basically wishes for the workers controlling the means of production but wishes for hierarchy and the preservation of traditional values so socially right economically socialist/communist I identified as such to bridge gaps between right-wing populist and leftist
@@harshjain3122 well it won in Peru. The president there was called "heterodox left". I american media. Its just he's not orthodox to the prevailing western liberal societies that makes him seem so odd.
So how do you adress this problem? Zizek doesnt say, he only says it needs to be openly discussed, but you can infer he believes in the superiority of leftist values over traditional muslim values which would mean in a possible future a common ground between leftist and conservative positions and a governmental crackdown on traditional muslim culture. Thats a pretty bad look in itself because this could be construed as white supremacy and will surely trigger anti-colonial sentiment from migrant communities, but it gets even more controversial because some rightwingers apparently agree with the muslim position on the denial of gay rights, womens rights etc., how do you form a coalition then?
@@harshjain3122 yeah he is a marxist, so definitely leftist, but his thought is influenced also by many other authors and philosophies (by psychoanalysis too) so it's more complex than that
Wokeism and pc shit is usually liberals, centrists. Real leftists like Zizek and many that I know are, of course understanding and accepting of everyone, not focused on the little stuff and more big picture.
2 ways to deal with this situation. 1) Europe and America must close their borders. 2) We must agitate for open borders for Israel, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Japan, China and South Korea.
Why South Korea though? They are as fucked up by Western incursion as those African countries. They're more stubborn towards some politics simply because they are Asian, but it won't really help them in the long run.
@szs voc that is what you will never be able to do. Open borders of Israel and Saudia? You kiddin me? If you know how these countries work. You would know better.

Sure, it is true that conservatives themselves don't believe in the strength of their societies maintaining their own culture due to the fear of mass migration, but it's nonetheless logical. If we would like to "conserve" the Amazon rainforest, we can project our trust in the ecosystem's ability to equilibrate after some time when another species is introduced, but when we constantly input new species, radically change the habitats, and use up the resources to help more input regardless if they're beneficial to the rest of the biosphere or not, because of "goodwill" then there won't be breathing time to equilibrate, there will be no benefits to go there in the first place, there will be no amazon, and all of that "pride" will count for nothing. It's absurd to replace species in the rainforest to "revitalise" the community, yet not even trying to solve the causes for the problems in these communities in the first place. We should welcome new species as long as they find their place definitely, but not to completely change the rainforest to suit them to the point of being unrecognisable.
@Tracchofyre it's a terrible analogy because refugees aren't completely new species. It's using science incorrectly to try to justify an anti-immigration stance. Literally social darwinism lmao so fucking stupid
@@Petard01 you're delusional if you think large unfiltered masses of people can come from third-world countries into developed ones and just integrate into the native population without dragging it down in any way. Look at the situation in places like France, London, Sweden...there is little evidence to suggest such integration is happening with refugees. I can only say that the Indian Hindu and Sikh populations in the UK seem to me to be the only ethnic minority group in the country that has really integrated, maybe because they were higher-class Indians who were wealthier and more educated and intelligent, maybe because their religious values are less dissimilar to Britain's traditional values, I don't know. But they feel very distinct to the refugee type of immigrants we are seeing now. You can't bring in groups of average 80 IQ people with strong, conflicting religious values and little-to-no outstanding skills or education, and just expect it to work. But obviously if you're rich enough for it to not concern you as you can just live in wealthy areas of the country, then you don't need to worry about it so much.
"Walls don't work" Yes Slavoj they do work, look at Israel. "Of course we should help them" How many of them? all of them? All that want to come to Europe? They all want to come. "What I don't understand is..." What you don't understand, among several other things, is that if a horde of migrants come to Slovenja, they will not be settling near your cozy, modern apartment in center Ljubiana, they'll be settled near some social blocks of apartments with parents who have 16, 17, 18, y.o. daughters who want to wear short skirts and come home when it's dark among other things, and those people come from Muslim societies which have a different perception of how women should behave in society.
Nice little fiction you have there. Ofc refugees come from a different culture, but why do you comment like we in Europe treat women with respect lol. For centuries women were oppressed and treated as property in Europe. If not because of the feminist movement, we would still be doing that. And isn't it the right who wants to go back to those good old days lol?
szs voc No my point is that the op comment is in itself hypocritical because it accused other cultures that they treat women like trash while ignoring the fact that we Europeans were no better, and if not because of feminism, we wouldn't be where we are today. So it's funny that the right hates feminism while glorifying the legacy of feminism. lol
@szs voc I agree. At first I was like "he kind of has a point there" and he does. But stereotyping women and treating them as less or sexual objects (and acting like they aren't doing the same or just treating a whole bunch of individuals who are a blend of uniqueness and homogenization as result of the culture and time they were born into) is still quite a far cry away from genital mutilation (idk how much male genital mutilation is still a thing in non-Muslim countries) or being treated like a commodity and a possession.
Point: "Muslims have a different being if how women ought to behave in society, so of course there'll be problems." Knee-jerk leftists: "But us white Europeans are infinitely more sexist, who are we to judge?"
szs voc No No, that's not my point. I just think it's funny that the right while hating feminism but at the same time also praising the legacy of feminism in Europe. So now the right loves feminism?
You need to check out the PLP. The Progressive Labor Party founded in 1964 just before the great Harlem Rebelion in 1964. It is international with sections in the US, Caribbean, Mexico, Colombia, Africa, Asia , and close friends in Europe. We reject socialism. While the Russian and Chinese Revolutions made great contributions to our history, they ultimately failed due to corruption in the model of socialism which maintains the capitalist monetary system and for their concessions to nationalism and failure to learn from these strategic weaknesses. We believe in egalitarian communism from day one. No privilege and no wage labor. We have had a proud history in the workplace and in the the fight against racism and racist police terror for over 50 years. See our web site at www.plp.org. See our You Tube videon Corona: Capitalism is the virus, Communism is the Cure. The channel is PLP Challenge. We have our party in Palestine-Israel with both Palestinian and Jewish members. See www.plp.org .

I traveled in a refugee bus from a journey from Netherland to Sweden at the big refugee crisis in 2016. The german police borders were extremely hard and arrogant towards the refugees in the bus. And this was at the time when Angela Merkel was regarded as the angel in this time. That´s why I don´t fully buys Zizek´s view about this things.
It's a nice anecdote from you, but do you know how much trouble the police have with many of these so-called refugees? The crime rate is immense. Yes, we should help real refugees, but mostly in their countries. I live near large refugee areas. They also fight each other. It is a mess. This naivety from our camp has pushed many people to the right and still does.
@@knightheaven8992 That's a good question. I would generally see the following possibilities. But first of all, our countries should no longer participate in arms deliveries to terrorist groups in war zones. No more proxy wars for oil. In such war zones, depending on the situation, one could establish a security zone with the help of the resident states or a moderate group such as the Kurds, with decent houses, water and food supplies and electricity. This could possibly also happen in a neighboring country in cooperation with the respective state. You could also organize teachers to teach the children positive values and knowledge there. This would be also an investment for the future of the country.
"Poor Arab countries" *Proceeds to name non-Arab countries* "Ethiopia, Eritrea, Madagascar and so on." Yup he doesn't know shit, just talking out of his ass.

I'm not racist but I'm as informed as they the next racist, however, my opinion is considered enlightened and nuanced.
So what he’s saying is that leftism and nationalism is 2 sides of the same coin. Only leftism believes there’s a class division between rich and poor while nationalism believes there is a racial struggle but they are nonetheless the same only in different terms?

Man as a German conservative i Think he is really dishonest here. He does the same thing everybody in Germany does and Starts by saying he isnt for the left or right wing so he cant be criticised and identified as somebody that might be an evil conservative. But his points on refugees were actually EXACT the points of Alternative für Deutschland (AFD) AND other conservatives around this topic. Yet he distances himself by extremely simplifying the conservative stance to Trumps "Wall Game" or "they are Bad versus we are good" mentality. This is so dishonest and such a cheap behaviour while you actually agree with the conservative side, just admit they got a point when you already use THEIR arguments, zizek!
What a terrible lie even Israel took some refugees but not saudi Arabia or any other gulf state Even immigrants (not refugees) who has been living there for tens of years haven't got a citizenship
saudi and UAE don't give citizenship to labours that have lived for decades there. You guys snatch their passports, and you say you will give the refugees citizenship? oh please
Ahh yes because as we all know walls and doors are impenetrable. The point is if someone wants to get in they will. Proactive rather than reactive action is what is necessary to stop refugee crisis'. If you dont create the conditions for a refugee crisis then you dont get the refugees in the first place.
@@ryangoodyer9450 What do you suggest then? that we intervene even further in more foreign countries? More Aid to Africa? because that has been working great for the last 50 years or so... The refugee crisis isn't always created by us for one. lots of Migrants that reach my country for example, they are not even Syrians or from countries at war. Every country in the world, every place, has its own peculiarities, and circumstances, and they are not always easily fixed. Seldom are actually. Also as Zizek mention, it is appalling that plenty of rich stable countries in Africa, and Middle east and such, dont have refugees. They all aim to reach Europe. Do you think this is so by necessity? by coincidence? walls work very well, they seem to work for some countries, and when i mean walls, they dont need to be physical. And for the record im not against emigration, nor i am an isolationist, but there needs to be a balance in all things, and this is no different. Only a fool thinks this doesn't affect societies.
@@knightheaven8992 the problem is Europe should stop playing the nice guy card with US and most of the rich arab countries . Your countries will soon suffer from an economic crisis, let alone a shift in political powers . Is closing your borders to refugees is good ? For the refugees it is not, but if Europe does that, it will expose those rich Arab countries and the US . You shouldn't close your borders simply, you should also side with poorer middle eastern and African countries, cause the US and Saudi are pushing poorer countries to let in refugees . Europe should take a clear stance from the countries that are involved in the Syrian war. You should let USA, Saudi, Turkey etc. know that if they want destruction they suffer from its consequences not you .

Nuclear power can fix global warming. Productive labor per hour worked will skyrocket with technology. Even higher then it is now. That means that: We will more food, more ice cream, more cars more houses, more medicine then ever before, per capita. We will have edited genes. We will be immine to all disease. Our crops will grow faster then ever in history, and have more nutrients. World population will drop naturally as we become more wealthy it is already dropping or stagnating in all major nations on earth. Stop worrying about it.
It's a nice notion, and probably a better idea over all, to try to help people in their own country instead of simply letting them come to ours, but I'm going to throw out a controversial opinion here: What if the reason the countries these people live in are awful is because the people are not capable of running a country successfully due to hereditary issues of intelligence? A country is more than its laws, a country is its people- People are inherently unequal, and therefore so must countries be.
A 100 years ago, the average European family had 7 children and were illiterate. Basically, no different from these people with "hereditary issues of intelligence".
But consider this. America as an example is only 5% of global population but consumes 20% of all oil. Yet it is in many respects a horrible failure as a society. What would happen if they had to cut down their consumption by 75% to reach a global average? That would be a huge change. There's a way out of this scarcity but for now we have to take it into consideration.
