Zizek discusses a gaffe recently made by George W. Bush where he misspoke, calling the US invasion of Iraq “a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion” when he meant to say Ukraine. In doing so, Zizek makes a comparison between Moscow and Washington, acknowledging their similarities, even bringing up the case of Julian Assange, who exposed Washington’s crimes in Iraq (and elsewhere) and faces extradition to the United States for doing so. Obviously, in a general sense, Moscow’s vision of empire and Washington’s vision of world domination share a similar impetus. https://www.counterpunch.org/2022/06/22/slavoj-zizek-does-his-christopher-hi...
