Has anyone else in history ever gone so quickly from "well respect authority of his field" to "batshit crazy pseudoscientist?" The only reason anyone's brought up Freud in modern times has mostly been to point out how nobody believes in Freudian psychology anymore. This happened to some extent with the ancient Greeks too, but they had way more time before modern science started making them look bad.

Guy was a fraud from the start and never should've been respected in the first place.

"Freud was a pseud" is babby's first intellectual opinion.

1. Psychoanalysis is primarily a form a therapy. It's not about making descriptive claims on par with experimental psychology.

2. Freud's insights were so profound and affected our thought so deeply that we don't even notice his ideas are implicit in the way we think about people. You probably accept all sorts of Freudian presuppositions and don't realize it. All that's left to notice about Freud once his views are implicit in our culture are the errors in his thought.

"Freud isn't actually bullshit" is babby's first contrarian opinion.
>All that's left to notice about Freud once his views are implicit in our culture are the errors in his thought.
Except lots of famous thinkers have views that are implicit in our culture without being considered pseudoscience garbage in retrospect.

Ancient Greeks still represent a high point in many fields. So, in closing, eat a bag of shit.

If only I qualified my statement with something like "this happened to some extent." Oh, right, I did exactly that so fuck off faggot.

When you try to criticize a realm person with piles of writing not by discussing these writing but by making up a story you have pretty much discredited yourself as being capable of any real thought. You make ape sounds or at best act like a parrot that has learned a few words of English.

Freud is one of those people that everyone uses the methodology and terms he invented every time they want to sound smart, but they don't give him the credit, because he's since been defamed.

He literally was the first true expositor of the subconscious, and now everyone acts like it has always been common knowledge.

>the first true expositor of the subconscious
His idea of the subconscious has nothing to do with the current understanding of the subconscious brain processes.
>>
>>3221069
What exactly are you talking about when you say "subconscious brain processes" ?
>>
His ID, ego and superego resemble the division of the brain between the amygdala and neocortex. His theories about how past traumas can have a profound effect on someone throughout their life resembles current understanding of PTSD and phobias. It was a step forward at a time when hysterectomies and lobotomies were still being performed, however he neglected the scientific approach which was needed to weed out much of his speculation.
>>
He was the ground breaker for lots of stuff in psychology but just read Little Hans' case study and you'll see all those memes about connecting everything to mothers is true.
>>
he was literally a fraud

all his good ideas were plagiarized, all his bad ideas were original
>>
Freud was a textbook example of da Vinci's ugly painter
