dense, many references, but the "real zizek": sublime object of ideology
fun zizek: first as tragedy, then as farce

My ethics teacher once said that he is a "charlatán", the philosophical equivalent to Hawkings.

I don't see the joke...
Pretty much every college has a course on ethics or bioethics.

I had this discussion with a classmate earlier.

Basically, we both came to believe that Zizek, Hawking, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye etc are viewed as charlatans/quacks by many academics in their field because they try to engage the public in higher-caliber academic stuff in a way that they can understand. They're very good at it, too, speaking to the masses. But it boils down to this: are they doing society a good deed by enriching and educating the public? Or are they harming academic science/philosophy etc by dumbing it down for a broader audience?

Of course they all get more credit than other smarter more influential people but who cares
