You know what happens every time I begin to read Zizek, right? Yes , it’s quote time. See the following and tell me you don’t love it:
Many Leftists hate me when I argue that twentieth-century communism might have been the biggest ethico-political fiasco in the history of humanity. I think there is no other soft explanation. . . Globally it was a fiasco
Amidst all of the pathetic attempts to salvage the terrible legacy of the Soviet, Cuban, Chinese, etc. communism, Zizek has the guts to say honestly that it was all bad. This is big.
