Critics complain of a theoretical chaos in which questions and answers are confused and in which Žižek constantly recycles old ideas which were scientifically refuted long ago or which in reality have quite a different meaning than Žižek gives to them.
Kriitikud viitavad teoreetilisele kaosele, kus küsimused ja vastused lähevad omavahel sassi, ja kus Žižek pidevalt taaskasutab vanu mõtteid, mis on juba ammu teaduslikult ümberlükatud või millel on tegelikult hoopis teistsugune tähendus kui see, mille Žižek neile omistab.
