His vision of bureaucratic socialism or whatever is too moderate, humanity is in for a bumpy ride, of course no one wants to debate where the water is coming from we just want water to be there, but ecological collapse will pretty much force us to have to debate where will the water come from.
I don't intend to come off as defeatist, all I'm saying is that we need an even more radical thought.
Then again what do I know, I'm just some bum on a Taiwanese doodling website.

pretty sure Muke's too afraid to come here at this point.

Way to entirely miss the point while also spelling the point out. He's not saying water should magically appear, he's saying a bureaucratic force should handle water supply for everyone. Ecological collapse will not force us to debate where water will come from, it will force the bureaucrats to deal with it.
Benjamin Miller
he loves the attention so he won't stop coming here, despite the fact he tells his preteen audience that he doesn't come around

Governments create problems only they can solve. Zizek is too conservative if he thinks he can just chill and read books while a cadre of enlightened technocrats solves our problems… we already live under such a system, is called liberal democracy, why even call ourselves radical then? Surely our problems will be solved if we just elect Bernie Sanders!

But Žižek is simultaneously one of the foremost critics of technocratic displacement, in that the reliance on such an infrastructure would necessitate further distention of symbolic power. His concept of non-didactic, or alienated bureaucracy, is probably what you're referring to. The concept is predicated by the dissolution of existing structures of organization and logistics, though to what degree a change in bureaucratic dispositions would occur is debatable - I still have yet to read more about it

He is crypto anti-id-politics. This appeals to disenfranchised left who instinctively refuse to mainstream left as it is currently coopted by globalist and neoliberal agenda.
In terms of analysis, he's a self-promoting hack though, similiar league to Yanis Varoufakis.
For some coherent writing of this particular dialect, read Kenan Malik or somebody like that.

Give the old man some more credit please. The question of how to make almost free clean water come out of the tap in every house is one best left to specialists, and by and large you have to depend on their expertise when looking towards how to implement this idea. The real problem is that the question if quasi free water should come out the tap in every home - and this is where the threat of neoliberalism enters. They refer to their mythical technocratic rule to hide the vulgar idea of privatization of the water supply. Even worse, they sometimes marshal the anti-specialist language of "government bureaucracy" to justify exactly such measures. There is room for bureaucracy and specialists, it makes for an efficient organization of our productive society thus increasing general welfare and creating a space for a reduction in working hours, the problem is only to whose demands they will respond.

God it's so fucking sexy you used those accents. Did you google it or do you know the command for it by default
Adam Moore
I wouldn't say he's self-promoting on his own accord, he's said before that most of his political writings are done because his editor makes him write on politics and that he feels his best work is actually his Lacanin material.
Also, is that who I think it is?

What did he mean in The Pervert's Guide to Ideology when he said that "Jews are the chimney sweepers of Ideology"? Anyone care to explain?
