The Politics of Cultural Theory with Slavoj Zizek

This week Tara is joined by ‘the most dangerous philosopher in the West.' Slavoj Zizek. In this far-reaching discussion, the two touch upon many aspects of modern life, including how online spaces have created a new form of online tribalism which threatens to derail civil discourse and how fear is at the core of cancel culture. Zizek also details his thoughts on modern financial technology, such as crypto, and asks if it has ushered in a new era of financial autonomy like it once promised.
