Everything wrong with psychology can be traced back to him and the rejection of Jung, and I say this as someone who recognizes the ways Jung influenced new age woo-woo’ism and its consequences.

Lmao no, Freud has been bootyblasted and Jung has been vindicated. See pic related
>>23357065
True but new-ageism is wrong because of it's buffet style attitude to spirituality which Jung was against

bullshit, Jung is the witch doctor people usually accuse Freud of being. Jungs psychology is just perfect to package and shill as pseudo-meaning, because any symbolism can be infinitely expanded at a whim.
Freud actually created a sensible model of the psyche that takes biology into account, and he's being vindicated right now as we understand the brain better.
Jung is where people who can't deal with the disenchantment run to.

All hatred of Freud comes from either
a) reading an interpretation of someone that misread Freud
b) not keeping in mind the time in which he was working in

You are proven wrong in the very book I cited. Keep coping pseud.

The Introductory Lectures, and The New Introductory Lectures-- pretty much covers everything, and is really not all that long when you consider what you get, a break-down of his entire career. The first volume concerns most everything that's discussed here, the much shorter second volume concerns updated, final Freud-- the introduction of the libido and the death drive, as instances. An alternative route would be to begin with The Interpretation of Dreams, which is a fun, very entertaining book to read.

his psychoanalytical theory and anthropology is interesting bu his cultural commentary is fucking awful. Civilization and its discontents is terrible

[Anonymous No.23361370]

Psychoanalysis is very mysterious. Its correct and incorrect in specific ways in which it makes it hard to write it all off.

Jung is just easy to appropriate; he validates a lot of the presuppositions of new age thought while not tying it to any particular dogma and giving it a veneer of psychological intellectualism.

>implyig that Jung didn't inspire Totem & Taboo, about which on his death bed Freud said that it was his most beloved book

Five Essays on Psychoanalysis and then The Ego and the Id. There's lots more but those are good starting points to give you the main arc of his theoretical development.
