Who seriously listens to Zizek and bases their view of the world on him?

Many people do. But nobody "bases" their worldview on Zizek. He has made some important contributions to psychoanalysis and critique of ideology. One has to separate Zizek the philosopher, Zizek the politician and Zizek the pop culture philosopher.

Russia is so incompetent they couldn’t even defeat just one country in NATO, Poland

How do you know this? What are the winning lottery numbers for tomorrow?

Remember when that Polish minister knelt at the Bandera monument?

Goodbye any fear Europe had of Russia. They can’t defeat Poland much less all of NATO.

I think you'll find the war is in Ukraine, not Poland. Easy mistake to make for an American.

the gathering of BRICS and other countries this week spotlights a growing convergence of nations who hope to see a shift in the global balance of power and – in the case of some, like Moscow, Beijing and Tehran – directly counter the United States-led West.

Tacit admission the two are one and the same. To shift the global balance of power the United States-led West must be countered.

But despite Russia’s sweeping rhetoric, the leaders meeting in Kazan have a wide range of viewpoints and interests – a reality of BRICS that observers say limits their ability to send a unified message – especially the kind Putin may desire

Democracy? That's actually a bad thing, sweetie.

Pretty sure the US's literacy level is even lower. And I don't mean that as a joke. There was some study done and they found that something like 1/3 of US adults are functionally illiterate.

Turns out China's state planned economy is putting the viability of US companies into question

But at what cost?

When Russians/Chinese/Koreans hack countries: cyberterrorism, act of war, evil, endangering lives of others, AAAAAAAAAA!

When Americans hack countries: for peace, freedom, fighting evildoers and villains.

Ukraine was in the coalition of the willing, yet they say Ukraine was pro-Russia before 2014.

Cognitive dissonance is required for liberals.

I wondered about that too. I'm guessing the US made some concessions to Russia in Libya.

Advance?! I thought NATO was a defensive pact. Huh...

Those who wish to spend time "de-programming" Nazis can. I actually know a former Nazi who's been through a de-programming course and is no longer a Nazi. But you won't see me wasting time on that.

Nothing good!

According to reddit, that's Budanov playing 4D chess and not wanting to reveal his sources inside the Russian prison system.

It has done so again with the murder of Alexei Navalny

They say this as if it were a proven fact.

tl;dr: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen told Tusk last month: “we will need to make up for lost time.”
