Re: Zizek presses Peterson. " where are the Marxists"?? A thought or two,,,, Archived Message Posted by Thomas Newfield on April 24, 2019, 2:57 pm, in reply to "Re: Zizek presses Peterson. " where are the Marxists"?? A thought or two,,,," I don't think a misuse of language, and so meaning, (aka, lying), can lead to a more equitable society. Just tightening a knot of problems. Anyway this seemed apt regarding your previous post: He is quick, thinking in clear images; I am slow, thinking in broken images. He becomes dull, trusting to his clear images; I become sharp, mistrusting my broken images. Trusting his images, he assumes their relevance; Mistrusting my images, I question their relevance. Assuming their relevance, he assumes the fact; Questioning their relevance, I question the fact. When the fact fails him, he questions his senses; When the fact fails me, I approve my senses. He continues quick and dull in his clear images; I continue slow and sharp in my broken images. He in a new confusion of his understanding; I in a new understanding of my confusion.
