In France these vain celebrity mentalists are always dying and then living on as zombies in America and the rest of Earth. They die to become the next big thing for not-too-clever university students. Bergson. Sartre. Foucault. Derrida. Deleuze... all contagious zombies now become trendy.
Well, guess who is next? This Alain Badiou creep is still alive waiting to be shoved down our throats. And what is his philosophy? Who can know? He is like a mental cripple making every little thing in the mind into such a problem!
To say "that is something" is so hard for him. He tries to count up to One Thing -- but he cannot quite do it. He drops the ball and falls into a sea of incomprehensible multiplicity. I guess this happens to him all of time because he gets desperate to invent little rules to keep himself safe from falling into unthinkable manyness. How cowardly to need such little hand-rails to stay away from the ledge!
Will he just throw himself off the cliff if there is no DANGER sign?
Plus he is saying-friends with that no-good, faux-ironic, fascistic cultural "Hun" called himself Slavoj Zizek -- what a waste! This Badiou is a waste of breath. He really doesn't count as anyone.
No one.
And by "no one" we don't mean that a "no one" exists -- only that there is a symbolic differential between the presence of the multiple which is a decent human being, which is herein NOT presented to us, and that useless French scourge of thought and waste of breathe whose multiplcity IS prsented to us.
So just forget about him -- Alain Badiou doesn't count.
