"I think Lacan is a great thinker obviously, but I just find him personally just risable," he says. "No matter how you slice it, whether like, whether Lacan is doing something selfish, or he is trying to do something that is outside of himself, like it, the problem of mastery is at the root of this." He adds: "How one situation oneself relative to mastery is what's at work in all these different discourses... It need not have the number four, because again, he does add a fifth of course".
