[lbo-talk] Zizek on Pussy Riot

[Wojtek S]

Dennis R: "I repeat, so as not to be misunderstood: (1) jailing folks
for a stupid
stunt for two years is wrong. But (2) Putin, who really did win the popular
vote, had nothing to do with it. Russia is a fairly conservative society in
many ways, and mudslinging at the Orthodox church is a red line for many
ordinary Russians. Finally, (3) Russia needs to be judged like Mexico or
Turkey, democracies struggling with long-term legacies of political
repression and neoliberal violence."

[WS]: Ditto.
