What were the political views of Sigmund Freud?

I think he wasn't Left-wing progressivist in that sense he had no mercy for utopian Left ideologies (eg. Marxism) that distort human nature (read - "Civilization and Its discontents"). On the other hand it will be probably a mistake to called Freud "conservatist" in strict political and social terms. His ideas were shocking in his times (eg. child's sexuality, "Oedipus Complex"). He was of course staunch atheist too, which is not welcome in conservative circles. Maybe he was some kind of "realist-progressivist" in that he belived we will modificate our nature by scientific forces, but taking into account our inborn aggression ("death drive"), NOT only our economic issues (as socialists believe). Freud was in the middle between conservative restrictions of the civilization and utopian ideologists which postulate complete liberation of these restrictions (eg. "sexual freedom").


What is sigmund freuds theory on schizophrenia?

For many years now there has been a continuing and sustained criticism of Freud's (1911) hypothesis that the basic disorder in schizophrenia consists in the patient's inability to maintain the libidinal cathexis of objects. The fact that patients suffering from the two principal types of schizophrenia present signs of real and fantasy object relationships has been taken as evidence that the illness cannot be based on a decathexis of object representations. This contradiction is easily dispelled if account is taken of the real likelihood that these object relationships, which are mostly of a pathological kind, represent a spontaneous tendency towards recovery. They are therefore secondary to the primary disorder and a reaction to it. In the original theory Freud (1911) described the flight of the libidinal cathexis from the love object in schizophrenia as a form of repression. After the introduction of the structural theory (Freud, 1923) he dropped the term 'repression'


What is Freud's interpretation of religion?

Freud believed that religion is a form of wish fulfillment, where people create a concept of a higher power to fulfill their desires and protect them from existential anxieties. He viewed religion as a projection of human needs and fears, rooted in childhood experiences and the unconscious mind. Freud argued that religious beliefs stem from a combination of psychological factors, including a longing for a parent figure and a need for comfort in the face of uncertainty.


Why do people like only certain types of music?

i am open to all kinds of music and like at least one song in each catagory, but i really like alternative rock and punk rock the best because i think, generally speaking, that that kind of music has better lyrics and it takes more talent to play a guitar, bass, or drum set, then it does to rap, or sing with a synthesizer
