复读齐泽克：不要“做自己”
Zizek on "Being Yourself"
- Why Zizek says that "being yourself" is an ideological trap?
- What does the Lacanian "fundamental fantasy" mean?
- How can you learn to be a person who goes beyond "fundamental fantasy"?
------------------
"Being yourself" as an ideological trap
对于什么才是“真实自我”的焦虑，以为 there is such a thing as an authentic chord to your own being.
Lacan's theory of the subject 个体在社会中具有人际关系、工作责任，但除去这些面具之后，何为“真实自我”？
You are your own mask. 面具之下并没有一个核心的本体/本质
The ultimate ideological play is to promise that you can exit ideology and become yourself.
The idea that "you need to be searching for your authentic self" is a reaction to Marxist "alienation". Within Capitalism, the idea that you could find your true self becomes itself the commodity that is sold to you. The more alienated you become, the more you think that you can buy a commodity that will reveal your true self to you.
------------
the fundamental fantasy: the idea that there is a true, authentic you.
If you take the symbolic away from our reality, you lose reality itself.
The authentic subjectivity is the ultimate illusion underlying the capitalist system of excess.
