Chinese Quote by Slavoj Zizek

“I am what you might call abstractly anti-capitalist. For instance, I am suspicious of the old leftists who focus all their hatred on the United States. What about Chinese neo-colonialism? Why are the left silent about that? When I say this, it annoys them, of course. Good!” quote by Slavoj Zizek — Download Open image
