Interviewed on the Barricades
I had a very productive conversation with Maria Cernat and Boyan Stanislavski for “On the Barricades.” We discussed the history of the global theory industry, anti-communist efforts to shore up the compatible Left, the dynamics of cultural imperialism and their relationship to right-wing opportunism, the rise of fascism, the place of China in contemporary geopolitics, the limits of Freudo-Marxism and intellectual syncretism, Žižek’s record of selling out the people for the advancement of his own career, and more.
Interviewed on “The East Is a Podcast”
I had an opportunity to sit down with Sina for an episode of “The East Is a Podcast,” entitled “The People vs. Slavoj Žižek w/Gabriel Rockhill.” The conversation is wide ranging, so we discuss the global theory industry, the star system, intellectual opportunism, Marxism, and much more.
Interviewed on ZNetwork
It was a pleasure to discuss my recent critique of Slavoj Zizek with Greg Wilpert, situating it in relation to my larger book project on the compatible left intelligentsia & its war on actually existing socialism.
