i just finished Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky and while the author did present a hyperintelligent race of spiders that start off with the typical spider thing of females eating the males after loving, i found that less creepy and more hella rad

y'all might find this hard to believe, but freud's religious ideas were as pants on head nuts as most of his others

i'm not an expert but i'll do my best

In human history's distant past, we lived like apes and as such had a father figure who took many mates. In a jealous rage over his sexual power over the mates, his children murdered him and took the women (our mothers) for ourselves

Religion is ultimately a reaction against this horrific act; freud draws comparisons between the (at the time) recent knowledge of australian aboriginals eating their totem animal in occasions of great solemnity, and the Eucharist

In his earlier works Freud presents this reaction as one of profoundly mixed emotional content, with echoes of both our collective horror and terror in our prehistoric act and relative positivity in the comfort God as a father figure provides. ultimately he classifies it as a sort of universal neurosis, to be treated through psychoanalysis like any other

Note that Freud was extremely eurocentric and only ever phrased these concepts through judeochristian terms

Late in his life and career, Freud posited that Moses was originally a renegade priest of the Egyptian Sun God Aten, who preached basically all the nice happy parts of Judaism. His followers eventually murdered him (in that oedipal parallel freud loves the gently caress out of) and reverted to savage and violent Yahweh worship. Over time many of what Judaism now considers to be its great prophets, like Isaiah, led a search to rediscover Moses and judaism shifted back to Moses' original belief system

thus freud's theory conveniently illustrates both his principle of oedipal complexes and his stages of psychosexual development; judaism represses its memory of moses in a sort of "latent" stage, but to freud the neurosis was simply buried in the subconscious and eventually had to be let out

GhostofJohnMuir posted:

you ever think that maybe freud hosed his mother and then assumed that was something everyone did?

there's a lot of things you can say about freud being a product of his highly misogynistic time, one with an educated class obsessed with greco-roman culture and determined (somewhat 'subconsciously', ha ha) to find connections to it

which is true, but also he was a loving crazy weirdo

yes but people usually gloss over his close personal friendship with French President Giscard and the fact France gave him political asylum after deposing him only when popular unrest began to erode his regime and international outrage started to form after he ordered the murder of over a hundred children. Of course France was more than happy to reinstall the previous president as a puppet with much of the actual business of ruling being controlled by a French military proconsul

yeah that's hosed up

I don't mean to jump to conclusions here, but... if it was going on nonstop for about half an hour it had to be somebody's way of quitting with a grand gesture, right? Like, accidental porn I can kinda understand for a minute. Half an hour of accidental porn means somebody sitting in the big room with the switches and dials (or hell, maybe just a Gateway running '98 for all I know) was keeping their finger on the "PORN" switch.

playing it over bourdain's "Parts Unknown" gives me one clue, which is that whoever did it was probably not a good person
