Freud scares me. It would be better if his stuff turned out to be true. That the vileness was just like.. accepted by almost the entire world for decades... disgusting. Also, it's like Bloom says... His assertions sometimes have a kind of hypnotic power to them that makes you just kind of accept them. Dark jew magic.

Also Norman O. Brown. Makes me kind of sick that his stuff was allowed in a world where people had to wear clothes and walk from place to place and keep the electricity running. It all just seems so irresponsible.

Also Eliot Rodger and I have a few too many similarities.

Also read something in James Holmes manifesto where he just scribbled "WHY?" for like ten pages... then he started writing the plans for the theatre shooting. Unsettling

Camille Paglia unnerves me because she seems at once so feminine and yet she's working from a foundation of pure logos which even she herself would have to concede is masculine... or I shouldn't speak whereof I know not, but she really really scares me even more than the existentialist feminists (who just fill me with doomthirst) and I can't explain why. Sexual Personae just kind of weirds me out... didn't get through it

Camille gives me hope on that note because shows you can turn women into men and rescue them from being so awful

you might be able to categorize Hubbard as an author, but .. intellectual? even "intellectual"?

They had turbine-generated cars that went about 275 miles an hour. They ran with a high whine. I notice they've just now invented the motor again. And they had tracks that were booby-trapped with atom bombs, and they had side bypasses. The tracks were mined, and the grandstands were leaded-paned.
- Hubbard, lecture of 3 January 1960

the only thing disturbing about Hitler was how much self-restraint he had in the face of overwhelming opposition

Freud's ideas turned out to be "true" in a way. Have you heard about Edward Bernays? He was Freud's nephew. Invented the concept of PR, too. A terrible, evil man, worse than Hitler.

For a moment it read like lyrics to a GY!BE song.

I phrased that in a shitty way - Bernays used Freud's ideas to create means of mass manipulation, successfully. IIRC even Goebbels admired his techniques.
