> "And, *sniff* to go even a step further, *sniff* is the practice of fist-fucking not the exemplary case of what Deleuze called the "expansion of a concept?" The *sniff* *sniff* fist is put to a new use; the notion of penetration is expanded into the combination of the hand with sexual penetration, into the exploration of the inside of a body. No wonder Foucault, *sniff* Deleuze's Other, was practicing *sniff* fisting: is fist-fucking not the sexual invention of the twentieth century, a new model of eroticism and pleasure? It is no longer genitalized, but *sniff* focused just on the penetration of the surface, with the role of the phallus being taken over by the hand, the autonomized partial object par excellence. And, what about the so-called Transformer or animorph toys, a car or a plane that can be transformed into a humanoid robot, an animal that can be morphed into a human or robot. Is this not Deleuzian? *sniff* *burp* There are no "metaphorics" here; the point is not that the machinic or animal form is revealed as a mask containing a human shape but, rather, the existence of the becoming-machine or becoming-animal of the human, the flow of continuous morphing. What is blurred here is also the divide machine/living organism: a car transmutes into a humanoid/cyborg organism. And, is the ultimate irony not that, for Deleuze, the sport was surfing, a Californian sport par excellence if there ever was one? No longer a sport of self-control and domination directed towards some goal, it is just a practice of inserting oneself into a wave and letting oneself be carried by it. Brian Massumi formulated clearly this deadlock, *sniff* which is based on the fact that today's capitalism already overcame the logic of totalizing normality and adopted the logic of the erratic excess."

Zizek is unironically a charlatan, I am not being ironic, he literally just says vague and dumb shit to impress and entertain teenagers.

It is garbage and nonsense. I don't understand organic chemistry very well, but I can go to a chemist and he will explain to me his field in a clear and concise manner. Lacanian garbage has no translation, it is just dumb word-salad, it makes you dumb and probably a tranny. Reading Lacan will shrink your brain and make you into a sissy cum dumpster who lives in a cage under the bed of some hairy gay dude. Go read real books and stop being a loser faggot.

Peterson is a philosophically-informed psychologist and Zizek is a psychoanalytically informed philosopher. The debate was over philosophical marxism so Peterson was at a disadvantage (it was also pretty obvious that Peterson hadn't done much research on Zizek and that Zizek took the debate much more seriously in terms of it being a competitive meeting). Zizek boxed Peterson in by deep diving into philosophical concepts but it was mostly sophistry (Zizek is better at being vague while giving a broad philosophical context to what he's saying and trapped Peterson by accusing him of doing the same thing).

Anyway, as far as talking heads go they're better than the culture deserves. There's really no reason to care enough to have a strong opinion of either of them and most opinions about them are reactive.
