Apparently not Slavoj Zizek and the 'marxist' claque. Or are they perhaps 'post-marxist'?
Interestingly enough, the word claque, which was popular among intelligent thinkers forty years ago, seems to have been disappeared ... a 'marxist' technique that originated with Josef Stalin as I recall.
'Claque' was adopted from the French where it originally meant a body of paid applauders or jeerers, as the case might be, among an audience. I can't recall an effective English synonym for it.
