Charisma is a potent force and is poorly understood. In some psychological circles charisma is still referred to as a 'spiritual gift'. I have no idea how to feel about that, but reading this brought that thought into my mind so I figured I'd share. 💕
I would like if. I think its a little silly asking Zizek about his thoughts on Taiwan-China relation.. Hes simply not an expert in that field, and nor would it be reasonable to expect him to be one. I would much rather let Zizek stay within the scope of his interest and talk repeatedly about those few "big ideas" than to belabor the audience with his opinion on issues that dont interest him.
While I see the appeal of Zizek, through his charisma, I don't understand why so many leftist hang on his everyword, in a similar extent to someone like Chomsky. And unlike Chomsky, Zizek seems more like a character rather than an intellectual to me.
