So what is the official verdict of /lit/ regarding psychoanalysis?
>>25362934Lacan, with elbow grease or bust
>>25362934No matter what we personally believe I think we all can agree that psychoanalysis changed the way humanity perceived art, including literature.
>>25362934Basically just read Jung
>>25362934What am I supposed to be seeing in this video? I watched it like 20 times.
>>25362988Zoomers played a joke and elected the balding, ugly manlet as Prom King to humiliate the Stacy Prom Queen.
>>25362934Fun hobby, it has medical and happiness-increasing uses, be better at it.

>>25363010Weak democracies blow and this proves it. They should've taken after the Spartans. Zoomers are a loveless, lost generation. There's but a miniscule glimmer of hope in the stars for them as a group.
>>25362934how old is that guy, what the fuck lmao
>>25363010They're all wearing sashes and holding a white rose symbolizing virginity. How do you know he's Prom King?
>>25362934If he trims and keeps his hair ultrashort, he will live with human dignity. She looks a bit disappointed but she'll get over it quickly as soon as her King starts behaving like the King he was elected to be.The people voted, the King and Queen shall deliver. One Nation under a King and Queen, and the King and Queen under God.
>>25363037They're áll Prom Kings and Queens then.A Dancing Queen should be the Greatest Dancer among the women. A Dancing King should be the greatest dancer among the men. This is how the world works.
>>25363037Who were the Greatest Prommer and the Greatest Prommerette in there? We weren't there, we'll never know.
>>25363047Prommer, and Promette, I guess instead.>Prometteresse
>>25362934Yes, we dream, that's pretty cool and refreshing.
>>25363037Looks more like a graduation thing imo - probably in like eastern europe too
>>25362934rag on that guy all you want but if he was french in the 70s hed be fucking his dick raw
>>25363422How do you know he's not?
Psychoanalysis is basically a cult, and if you get initiated, your life might just go on a 20 or 50 year detour into hell. Mine lasted about 5 years. Also be aware there are many psychoanalyst High Priests who live in hiding, rarely revealing their true inspirations. Harold Bloom is such a High Priest. I cannot stress how dangerous Freud is. You are probably safer reading Aleister Crowley. He can be easily refuted if you grasp some certain principles, but his Cult of the Sexual Self is quite good at wooing and cajoling the worst parts of the self, and if you are not read-in to some of the program's failures or cued into its falsities, you may just sing a little siren song to yourself and run off into the enchanted forest of forbidden delights, never to return again.

>>25363440>Mine lasted about 5 years.And what happened? You became a bitter, isolated schizo? Probably would have happened anyway
>>25363848I became an alcoholic pseudohomosexual actually. It was horrible, worst time of my life. Wish I was joking. The "aha" moment came when I was keeled over on the toilet shitting blood after a thoroughly mad bender. Fortunately some part of me snapped out of it and said "Well, it's rather clear I've run myself into the ground and that my attempts to live independently of any authority and realize harmony with all my desires has only destroyed my health and ruined my relationships." Freud WILL ruin your relationships, because you will start using psychoanalytic theory to diagnose everyone's complexes in a way that doesn't match the reality of their actual being, causing bizarre misunderstandings at every turn. You'll also become obsessed with your own "complexes" and will become neurotic about them. And you'll pretty reliably end up blaming all of your personal issues on your parents, which is basically the most Loser mentality a man can have. I'm not kidding, Frued will fuck you up big time.
>>25363440>>25363861You sound like a weak bitch who blames everything wrong with your life on external factors
>>25363893did you even read the posts? this anon is implying you should believe in your own ability to make decisions
