The Pervert
The pervert claims
direct access
to some figure of the big Other
(from God or history to the desire of his partner),
so that, dispelling all the ambiguity of language,
he is able to act directly
as the instrument of the Other’s will.
In this sense, both Osama bin Laden and President Bush,
although political opponents,
share the structures of a pervert.
They both act upon the presupposition
that their acts
are directly ordered and guided
by divine will.
—-excerpt from How to Read Lacan by Slavoj Zizek
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN,
a xenophobic call to arms direct from the big Other.
So we march
under a perverted spell…….
