the most salient point from the zizek chapo interview was the call for the left to rediscover its moral majority but that would entail a rejection of most of its new-found objectives so it will fall on deaf ears

you and I both know that is not what he meant
It is an interesting contradiction, though - he's specifically advocating that leftists take up not the substantive cause of the moral majority but the casual chauvinism and vulgarity that accompany it, decoupling this from austerity. Imo.

I'm not sure he was specifically pointing to "the moral majority" as we know it, so much as rediscovering first principles of dignity, respect, kindness, joy, etc

Just because you don't want him to believe it doesn't mean I'm putting words in his mouth
