>west
you're thinking most dangerous philosopher for the west

>>8087343
>johnny foreigner from some irrelevant balkan shithole
>western

yeah ok

>>8087363
What you said legit makes no sense

>leftists
>dangerous

Lel. Yeah, that's why you're totally going to jail or lose your job, for having leftist views.

>>8087366
Maybe he's implying Marx is an Eastern philosopher

Dynamite boy

>>8087343
Why zizek dangerous?

>>8087343
>Zizek is called "the most dangerous philosopher of the West"
Who is he "dangerous" to - a bag of cheetos?

>>8087374
This the answer. He drove himself mad with his own philosophy. Don't believe the syphillis nonsense.

It's just Marxists who call anyone who thinks like them "dangerous", because being dangerous is very badass. And people like them are all avant garde thinkers and make up the intellectual vanguard of the coming proletarian revolt.
They're really something and quite the rebels.

>>8087376
First he dazels you with Hegelian dialectics and before you know it, he's got his thumb in your ass

>anyone published by Verso

Into the trash it goes

this absolute madman actually strangled bitches to death

>>8087374
Responsible for more young male murder suicides than any other philosopher!

>>8087343
Socrates

When your IRL shitposting powerlevel is high enough that people write satirical plays about you and the ruling establishment has to use you as a scapegoat to maintain the social order, you know something is up.

How is Zizek anything other than entertainment for 20-somethings?

>>8087373
>german
>eastern
Idk can somebody be that dumb?

Definitely Plato, Marx plagiarized him

>>8087343
Zizek is a somewhat loopy pot smoking uncle. Alexander Dugin, more likely, he's an aspiring supervillan who preaches his own jumble of occultism, fascism, Stalinism and eschatological prophecy.

>>8087913
Except Dugin is clearly retarded and nobody takes him seriously outside of Russia

>>8087913
>mfw he wants to ban physics and chemistry for being "degenerate"

>>8087961
I don't think his autistic Eurasian Empire will ever come to be. But it's clear that the Russian state has been taking some advice of his from the Foundations of Geopolitics.

Come on anon, you post this shit as if the alt-right posters don't do the exact same, and don't look about the exact same.

Anyone in a niche political movement thinks they're being so anti-establishment and are so much better than the current system because they have infographics that prove them right, and it doesn't matter that there's going to be at least one or two people in the senate or house of representatives that agree with them, because all their online buddies agree that they're so much smarter than everyone else and no-one else could understand.

Look at the Trump posters acting like a misunderstood minority, when in reality Trump is slightly more popular than Clinton. It's the same shit.

>>8087913
>"national" "Bolshevism"

>>8088028
It's not like they're even trying to be commies anyways. They're just trying to play into that Soviet-era nationalist nostalgia, which even Putin does.

>>8087386

>>8087343
>Zizek
Literally who?

>>8088028
It's a nice meme

Hegel.

>>8088126
Could I get some fucking context for this image please?

>>8087374
He looks so comfy in that picture, makes me smile :3

if you exclude interpreters of jesus and marx as non-western, probably bentham or henry ford

>>8087961
>nobody takes him seriously outside of Russia
nobody takes him seriously in russia either

>>8087913
Who is this Mememan?

>>8090011
Dostoevsky cosplayer

Without a doubt, Nietzsche.

>Look at the Trump posters acting like a misunderstood minority, when in reality Trump is slightly more popular than Clinton. It's the same shit.
I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you but Trump supporters are more aggressively demonized than Clinton supporters, and Clinton is currently ahead in the polls

Saint-Just.
Bentham is a far off second.

De Maistre in theory, probably Marx in effect.

>>8090577

Saint Just maybe, but fucking Bentham?

My vote goes to Diogenes or Epictetus, both were seriously radical.

My Twisted World is the most subversive tract in western history.
