@fuguer I wouldn't say that's a 'basis', its the context under which your preferences are being formed, recursively as you say

or rather, part of it

right

is this it iippo?

Here...it works

Yes

nice

i cant tell if i hate chomsky or not

Use the share option @iippo

I both like and hate him tbh

he seems like an unusually honest leftist academic

yes

exactly

@Deleted User watch alan woods instead

but he is just delusional

I have to forgive him

I do like him

he's the last real leftist tbh

the last honest one

besides like Zizek

and they hate each other

i zizek over chomsky

up until recently Chomsky would answer personal emails with questions

or if you wanted to debate him he'd do it

over text

both are easter evropean

IDK if he still is

I think its just that he's been in the fight that he's been in for so long

he can't see it any other way

calcified

Chomsky is more of a Leftist out of like instinct

where as Zizek is sort of an idealogue

Chomsky is an anarchist first an then a leftist

and yeah you're right on Zizek

more or less the only reason Zizek criticizes USSR is because it wasn't perfect

and even then a lot of it is cause USSR is supposed to be evil

yep

I kind of a hate a lot of the Leftists that criticize USSR or China

Zizek cucks his worldview a lot to westerners

lol
