“This readiness to assume the guilt for the threats to our environment is deceptively reassuring: We like to be guilty since, if we are guilty, it all depends on us. We pull the strings of the catastrophe, so we can also save ourselves simply by changing our lives. What is really hard for us (at least in the West) to accept is that we are reduced to the role of a passive observer who sits and watches what our fate will be. To avoid this impotence, we engage in frantic, obsessive activities. We recycle old paper, we buy organic food, we install long-lasting light bulbs—whatever—just so we can be sure that we are doing something. We make our individual contribution like the soccer fan who supports his team in front of a TV screen at home, shouting and jumping from his seat, in the belief that this will somehow influence the game's outcome.”

wasn't zizek's view on trump that it is a good thing he be elected? so that it will demonstrate something to the american public and they will finally be willing to truly go left for once after trump has failed miserably. i've always felt like that is probably true. and then obama would be the ultimate savior for having baited trump into running

Ok so do something beyond token gestures and don't be motivated by guilt.
