親愛的香港學生和民眾,　

我全力支持你們實現那 "不可能"的夢－－普選－－（失敗的）歷史不斷告訴我們一個教訓：必須而且只有堅持那些成年人視為"不可能"的事情才能成功改變現實/命運("reality")，千萬不要中他們的圈套、不要跟隨他們的遊戲規則：Be realistic, demand the impossible! (現實一點，要求實現不可能之事！）

其次，正如我對佔領華爾街的呼吁：你們的夢不應脫離生活，換言之，不應脫離你們自己每天呼吸的經濟環境－－極不人道的樓價、對公共事業的瘋狂私有化或掠奪、北方[富豪]資本家的大舉入侵－－，因為，一張剝除了經濟權利的選票最終只是一張空頭支票、一個騙局。

好了，現在你們馬上就領悟到追夢過程中最關鍵的一點：受盡壓迫的草根民眾必將和你們手牵手地團結起來－－只有當草根民眾站在你們身邊的時候，滿嘴謊言的政客和手持槍炮的權貴才真的會乖乖讓步，你們的夢想才真的會實現！

衷心祝福並總是與你們一起奮鬥的
斯拉沃熱。齊澤克 （Slavoj Zizek）


Dear Hong Kong students and people,

you have my full support in your pursuit of your "impossible" dream. History has repeatedly taught us the lesson that only by insisting what our society considers "impossible" that fate has ever been changed. And to play the adult's game of opportunistic compromises is to fail -so be REALISTIC, demand the impossible!

And remember that your dream is not only about the voting system. It concerns also your everyday life,  your economy: the inhuman property price, ruthless privatization, capitalists from the North joining your own ones. Without economic rights, without social justice and solidarity, a ballot is merely a fetish.

By now you have, I hope, realized that what's crucial in  any emancipatory movement is your solidarity with and support from the oppressed grass root people. Only when they stand by you, those equipped with guns and lies would reluctantly compromise and that's when your "impossible" dream will be more than a dream.

My utmost blessing and always with you in our emancipatory struggle, Slavoj Zizek
