I I know I roe

Slajov Leo Zizek interview transcribed on the blog writing Letras Libres.

This man, as we know, is too elaborate to a mind like mine puberty. But it says something that echoes in my mind for quite some time.

says, referring to 68, in Prague:

"What if the Soviet intervention was a blessing in disguise? Do not let us save the myth that without the intervention of the Soviets, had flourished a genuine democratic socialism? "

and 89, in Tiananmen:

"Imagine that the Communists in power yield to the demands of the protesters. It's very sad, but if the Tiananmen demonstrators had been successful, if the Communist Party can truly democratic and other reforms, would likely have been chaos in China. No, I'm not saying that we must choose dictators or that the iron fist is the only solution. just saying let us comforting illusions. "

and continues on the left in general:

"I think we left today, too often falls into that game. I think that's why they like to lose." ... "That is, since this is implicitly regards the title of my talk, this comfortable position of strength: do not mess with the power, that is the motto of the contemporary left. Do not play the game power, Power corrupts. Resist, resist, withdraw and resist from a comfortable moral position. I find this very sad. "

And I find profoundly true. And, like him, just sad.

I get the feeling that the left in Mexico and elsewhere, wallows in moral superiority based on the failure. So his greatest moments was based on what could be and not what it was. Why it was so difficult for the great intellectuals of the left assume that real socialism had left that moral utopia. So today, underestimates the British third way. So in Mexico, 68 have that nostalgic aura of fantasy do not quite like it.

Unfortunately, I find echoes the words of Zizek in the alternative for which I voted in 2006. Do not play this game of power, because power corrupts. Here, in Prague and in China, and Rome. Today and 40 years, and makes 400. Because the complaint is simpler and the resistance there is no way to lose. O was lost because the other cheated. Or the world was not ready for changes. Or policy not deserve because we are too neat for her.
