We live in brutal Capitalism, and instead of paying for it, we should brutally use it. The problem isn’t some idiot in power giving you money. Take the money! Take the money! But take it without moralistic feelings of guilt. The next day, kill him, and if he says “But I gave you money,” tell him, “You idiot, why did you give me the money?”

Here there’s no room for moralism. Be brutal. If we live in Capitalism, then we live in Capitalism. Take the money wherever you can without any feeling of responsibility. They give us money not because they like us but because they think it’s chic or in that way they make a spectacle and so on. Let them live in their illusions. That much better for us. So, I agree with what you’re saying but don’t be so paranoid in the sense of, “Oh but all of this is co-opted and so on…” It’s not so, to tell you, it’s not.

Zizek gets a lot wrong, but when he’s right he’s right (you can see him say this here). Take care of yourself comrade, it’s “ok” to keep your finances in order. Communism is not a religion, it’s not a moral code that you can “fail” by not being “pure” or whatever.
