I’m curious about your reasons for calling Mr. Zizek a ‘useful idiot.’ From my reading of him, he comes across as a future Head of Propaganda Directorate or something for the next Marxist Republic. I don’t see any idiocy there or even delusion, just pure, immoral grab for power.

I can’t wrap my head around the fact that a Russian news agency is less prone to propaganda than agencies from the “free world”.

But I’ll give Assange one thing: love them or hate them, his guests aren’t boring.

Unfortunately, he had sex w/o a prophylactic and, with the other bim, didn’t call back the next day. So he’s doomed.
