Monotheism creates the individual by removing the community as the path to God. Protestantism makes that individual prove faith, so wealth, jihad, and transgression become technologies of certainty. Kant, Hegel, and Marx answer the same problem through knowledge, spirit, and history, but Freud answers through the unconscious. Then the lecture turns: early Freud believes traumatized women; later Freud protects fathers by making the daughter's memory into her fantasy; dream interpretation becomes the soft medium for replacing memory. Jung popularizes the unconscious, Joyce and Woolf turn literature inward, modern art spreads individualism against communism, and social media democratizes elite self-indulgence into a global cult. Freedom is not isolation. Freedom requires other free people.", "opening": { "heading": "Core Reading", "text": "The argument starts before Freud. The individual is not natural; it is produced by a religious break. When God becomes nothing and everything, the believer has direct access to God and can stand apart from the community. That looks like freedom, but it opens a wound. How do you know you love God? How do you know God loves you? The modern self begins inside that crisis, and the rest of the lecture follows the crisis as it changes costumes: transgression, epistemology, psychoanalysis, modernist art, Cold War culture, social media, and depression.", "refs": [ "video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0003", "video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0005", "video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0007", "video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0017", "video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0054", "video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0055" ], "marks": [ { "text": "the individual is not natural; it is produced by a religious break", "refs": [ "video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0003" ], "refs_detail": [ { "ref": "video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0003", "segment_id": "seg-0003", "start": 175.53, "end": 256.85, "time_label": "2:55", "speaker": "SPEAKER_00", "excerpt": "And the reason why is, the Christians introduced the idea of the Holy Trinity.

They started to have relationships with each other. And they started to war against each other. That's created polytheism. Polytheism is the idea that each place has its own god that's its patron. And when these places come into conflict and war, the way they settle disputes is the losing party, their god becomes their servant to the winning god. And this creates the idea of the pantheon that we see in Greek, Roman mythologies, as well as Norse mythologies. Now, the radical break from this tradition was the birth of monotheism. Now, there's going to be a lot of scholarly debate about which was the first monotheistic religion. Some say there are certain Egyptian cults that were monotheistic. Some say the Jews were. Some say the Zoroastrians were.

So let's look at the new Freud. Since child masturbation is such a general occurrence and is at the same time so poorly remembered, it must have an equivalent in psychic life. And in fact, it is found in the fantasy encounter in most female patients, namely that the father seduced her in childhood. This is a later reworking, which is designed to cover up the recollection of infertile sexual activity and represents an excuse and explanation thereof. The grain of truth contained in this fantasy lies in the fact that the father, by way of his innocent caresses in earlier childhood, has actually awakened the little girl's sexuality. It is these same affectionate fathers that are the ones who then endeavor to break the child of the habit of masturbation. Okay.
