Well, at least I found the one good Tweet on Twitter lol

I kid, I kid.

But yeah, I don't think Prashad has gone for Slavoj Žižek before and certainly not in this manner.

Lots of attention.

I'll stop posting Tweets lol but I thought you might find it interesting how much attention this Tweet got.

He always sucked hard. Never understood his appeal, did everyone missed when Fidel died and he appeared on RT and bashed the Cuban Revolution, saying it accomplished nothing and Fidel should be forgotten.
