I think it's an interesting reflection to debate here. What do you think?

You should all read First as Tragedy, Then as Farce (2009) it's a great book and quite clear compared to Zizek's other works. Living in the End Times (2010) is also very good. There's a lot of popular culture and dark humour in his writing, mostly for the sake of explaining his philosophical positions. Here's a link to his column at the Guardian, where you'll find a backlog of his old articles as well as his latest output: Zizek Profile

Essential reading for anyone concerned with radical politics!
