I gave you full names, the title of a lecture, and the subject of discussion.
What’s the point in even recommending something to me if you’re not going to give me enough to find whatever it is that you want me to read. You haven’t even said what ‘Go, Ralph, singhal, etc…’ write about or indicated their relevance to the discussion. How am I supposed to know what I’m looking for?
How far do you think I’ll get if I type ‘Go’, ‘Ralph’, or ‘Singhal’ into Google. Let me tell you, because it’s the first thing I did before asking for more details – nothing if relevance to this conversation.
Are you reluctant to tell me more because you assume that I won’t read what you ask me to read because you’re not going to bother to watch or read what I recommend to you? And Marxists are the ones living in an echo chamber!
I’m re-phrasing things, yes. This is necessary. We haven’t been able to move past the basic premise because you don’t understand the central claim in the three or four ways that it’s already been expressed. I’m not trying to be more correct. I’m trying to be understood. I’m open to the possiblity that I’m wrong. But for you to challenge what I’ve said you have to (and demonstrate) that you’ve understood it.
Edit: for reference, the lecture is titled ‘race the floating signifier’, as indicated in quotation marks in my previous comment. There was a typo in the second use, outside quotation marks, which read, ‘following signifier’, which is now corrected. The lecture is here: youtu.be/PodKki9g2Pw
