@gizem.digital: We usually believe, somewhere deep down we have a real authentic self inside our heads and when we go out in society, we put on a mask like to fit in. For Zizek, there is no hidden true self behind the mask. The mask creates who you are and this is a good thing. However, I believe when the discrepancy between the mask you wear in society and the real inner experience you have goes to extreme levels, this might cause psychological distress and can manifest as symptoms if it is left unaddressed and unresolved. ⛓️‍💥 If you have similar experiences and are looking for a space to take a step back and understand your patterns or actively create your path, I offer 1:1 online counseling space.

It’s masks all the way down even in our most private moments we still wear the mask for the Other except the Lacanian Psychopath wears a mask as chameleon camouflage but has never internalized the mask because they think themselves the agent of the will of the Other if not the Big Other themselves, so Zizek concern once decoded is about living in a world of psychopaths, which is a terrifying concept if not partially true.

Yeah, this reminds of the virtues of transactionality. Nobody would get through the traffic alive without it.

mannohneeigenschaften :

performative people are performative because they easier can control a performative role than their real selves. so today’s rule is not „fake it till you make it“ any longer, today’s rule might be „fake it since you aren’t able to make yourself“
