About what?

I think they need to be synthesized. I think that we (men) all want to fuck our mothers and are afraid to be castrated. I think all women suffer from hysteria and penis envy.
I think myths are simply the collective consciousness of lust. Everything can be reduced to lust, even religion.

Archetypes are just different types we lust after.

Jung was too batshit to even be called wrong

Both? Jung as very connected to his mother, was a founder of Electra's complex. On the other side Freud is known for Oedipus complex. Both complexes play a vital role in development of mental diseases among men and women.

They may have been right in some respects, but their theories suffer from a lack of solid evidence and Freud probably set back research on the human mind by more than half a century given how much crankery he and the Freudians in general produced.

Now, we don't, thanks to the Westermarck Efect.

Except they don't, mental illness runs to a large extent in families and has biological causes like syphilis. Also, the hypothesis that neurosis is a product of some trauma or parental tyranny is rendered somewhat null by the fact that thirld-worlders tend to have a smaller incidence of mentall illnesses than those who live in the first world, despite suffering much more by any metric.

It seems clear to me you suffer from castration anxiety. I think you use your left brain too much as well.
Shame humans aren't capable of using more as 10 percent of their brains, I think you need to use other parts of your brain.

Who fucked you up worse, your mother or your father?

Both were flawed. But Jung's theories (and their consequences) are more interesting, Freud limited himself with his materialist views.

There is no such thing as "complexes"

Even the Oedipul complex is a naive revisionist reading of Freud. The "elektra complex" certainly does not exist.

Seems like you're insane too. Its actually ultra rare to see someone from second-world country who is not insane so you can guess what it means for third-worlders.
