S4, Part 14, War Games: October 7th & Israeli Fascism 59:40

2d ago59:40

59:40

On the surface, the War game version of Kick Me is two-handed. During World War II, 120,000 Japanese were in American detention camps after the Pearl Harbor attack. The U.S. dropped two atomic bombs on Japan as retaliation for the attack despite World War II being effectively over. This was an act of “asserting America’s military supremacy.” Theref…

1:19:39

The set up to Mass Shooter is “I will destroy the world and then kill myself.” In simple terms, the War game version of Now I’ve Got You, You SOB! is the climax of Mass Shooter. Both games involve the Othering of a certain person, group, or ethnicity, which creates an obstruction between oneself and the Other. The same can be said for competing nat…

1:35:30

The psychotherapy patient is trained to walk into the therapy room to sit or lie down on the couch. Immediately they begin to describe their life by speaking in longform. This is a pastime: a semi-ritualistic and socially programmed activity of updating the therapist with their status as a self. When the patient sits down, they launch their Status …

In the book, “The Recovery of the True Self,” psychiatrist Robert Phillips states that “all of the animals other than the human animal have an uncomplicated family-life. “Child-rearing” among those animals looks rather simple and straightforward.

Reich argues that a cultural and economic revolution requires a “sexual revolution.” Reich writes, “The goal of…

The psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich, MD understood that a specific form of human socialization has created the fascist character via “armoring.” In his book The Mass Psychology of Fascism, Reich writes that the “mechanistic-mystical character of modern man” has produced “fascist parties, and not vice versa.” The character structure of modern human bein…

In the book, The Anatomy of Fascism, Robert Paxton argues that “Fascists need a demonized enemy against which to mobilize followers, but of course the enemy does not have to be Jewish.

S4, Part 6, Gender Identity: Dialogic Process vs. Debate 1:27:53

3M ago1:27:53

1:27:53

The Media game version of Gender Identity presents itself as a dialogic process. The interview–which is actually a debate–starts with the question, “What is a woman?” or “How many genders are there?” This game has similar dynamics as Climate Change because both are derivatives of the Ain’t It Awful (AIA) game: “Ain’t It Awful the oceans are acidify…

1:28:54

The Psychiatry game is introduced on the individual or psychotherapy level as well as how Psychiatry is promoted for the maintenance of the status quo. The Psychiatry game reinforces social hierarchies as reality (e.g., “mentally ill” versus not).

The supremacist aim of the Protest game is to moralistically denigrate the motives and tactics of the specific social movement, e.g., Just Stop Oil in the UK or Black Lives Matter in the U.S. Adult ego state functioning is rarely utilized if not avoided in the game, e.g., global temperatures in the 21st century, solutions such as nuclear energy and…
