Last month a controversial op-ed by Slavoj Žižek was published in Le Monde diplomatique. Around the same time, Žižek also wrote a similar letter to the London Review of Books. In the current issue, LRB has published some of its readers' responses.

This assessment is consistent with Jello's reaction that Žižek's argument "reads exactly like Chinese propaganda."
