Zizek is quite openly misanthropic which is quite irregular for Marxists who most want to fashion Utopias out of society, my impression is that Zizek just wants to lessen human suffering rather than fix the system. He's quite a likeable presence too and surprisingly more socially conservative than I thought he would be. I think he actually managed to upset both sides of his areas of debate politically which makes him even more entertaining but he does come across as defiantly stubborn, which I suppose is inevitable for a philosophy-type

I don't have a problem with legitimate authors who I haven't heard of or who might be a bit obscure. I'm talking about the memes that crossboarders pushed who 1) have never written anything read by more than 50 people and 2) are not characters in any such work and 3) do not in any way relate to literature or this board. That you randomly added images just because they were requested shows how useless and tainted that chart is. Beyond that, positions were being moved around with little to no reason and the rankings make absolutely no sense. Obviously there are people who find the chart in this thread has more merit and would like to work on the original chart started by OP without you coming in here to say that we should stop because another group decided to ruin one version of it in the thread you're shilling here so they could call it quits early.

You guys are doing it completely wrong.

Yeah he was also a degenrate freak almost on the tier of de Sade and loved to traumatize people. Either 85, 80, or 90, 90.

Nah, I'm pretty sure I'm in the right place.

Bobbie Lee tried to stop the cascade of insanity that led to the death of Anne Frank and countless others and failed.

He was forced to live with the agony of that failure on his mind until his dying day.

Wasn't she suicidal before marrying Ted, and didn't he cheat on her with a women who would eventually also suicide with her kid? Didn't Ted beat his wife Sylvia? Didn't Ted have multiple affairs while dating a woman of whom he bore children but did not marry?

No, it doesn't. It's how much they deserved it vs. what they actually suffered. Not sure where you're getting that from.

It's been clarified thread to thread what the x-axis means, but the language is misleading. It would be clearer if it just said "HOW MUCH THEY DESERVED'"

>>11936460
still don't know how to read this "How much they deserved it" doesn't make any sense it can be intoned to mean someone with 100 suffering deserved 100 suffering but someone with 10 suffering could have deserved 100 suffering but they still deserved their 10 suffering so how would that fit?
