If you are not satisfied, you will suffer, and if you are satisfied, there will be nothingness? ŽIžek takes you out of the vicious circle of pleasure and nothingness! In this book, Žižek examines in detail how in the post-epidemic era, people gain enjoyment from disaster, confrontation, and chaos but lose their revolutionary desires. He writes from the privatization of the Internet commons to Trump's hypocrisy and lewdness, from the ego machine of "Solaris" to the positive nihilism of "Joker"; through the phenomenal hit dramas "The Handmaid's Tale" and "The Squidward Game", he has a profound insight into the criticism of misogyny and capitalism, which is actually the more obscure enjoyment of abuse of women and the profit of capital. When authority falls into the quagmire of self-deconstruction and political movements completely degenerate into a carnival, people continue to alienate themselves by turning themselves into tools of pleasure for the Big Other, and denigrate "permanent partnerships" as tyranny for the sake of complete sexual freedom. When everything seems to be heading towards doom and destruction, Žižek believes that "we must survive until we die", and the posture of survival is: holding a fierce and indifferent spirit of survival, which is the stance adopted by countless ordinary people.
