Key Notes
Jiang says a legal structure makes ordinary people enforce the fantasy: if someone exposes the deception, people around him will punish him for breaking their world.
Confirmation bias keeps the system intact because people prefer to believe the government tells the truth and therefore live in a fantasy world.
Later Freud, in Jiang's account, moved responsibility away from fathers by saying girls' reports of seduction were fantasies produced by infantile sexuality and paternal affection.
Later Freud is presented as reversing the story: the father is innocent and the girl's fantasy or sexuality produces the apparent trauma.
Virgil's love model begins with beauty provoking animal response, then imagination turns the beloved into a fantasy that can be controlled and possessed.
