>not engaging your repressed desires or your "shadow"
But the Jungian "Shadow" isn't real, that is the issue in of itself. It is an imagined state, an abstract form that superficially bears your resemblance, but not unlike a true shadow can only exist within proximity of your being without ever directly interacting with it. "Integrate your shadow"? Retarded. It simply mythologizes the human condition through this imaginary dark side, literally sacralizing a faux-substance.

>Asimov's ideas
>Asimov's characters
Asimov is legitimately unreadable for anyone who experienced any other kind of sci-fi. He exists in this limbo between soft and hard sci-fi, is the worst of both worlds, and could only have come to prominence in the 50s, when the genre was read only by children or weird professional nerds from RAND Corp.
