## Extracted Topic Notes

- diagnosis: Jiang says Freud protected his Frankist patrons and was rewarded with fame, British protection, and institutional spread. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-zprecjhuous@transcript:v1#seg-0159`
- model: Bureaucratic elites behave like parasites: they feed off an institutional host, then switch to another host when the first one dies. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-hk-yhi3-prw@transcript:v1#seg-0071`, `video:predictive-history-hk-yhi3-prw@transcript:v1#seg-0072`
- model: Jiang says elite patronage networks protect one another, allowing administrators to bankrupt one organization and move to another. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-hk-yhi3-prw@transcript:v1#seg-0073`
- model: The biographical hypothesis treats Spyridon Putin's role as cook for Lenin and Stalin as evidence of access, trust, and possible embeddedness in Soviet/KGB patronage networks. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-zgvahzqaawa@transcript:v1#seg-0013`, `video:predictive-history-zgvahzqaawa@transcript:v1#seg-0014`
- diagnosis: Freud had a practical incentive to change his story because the fathers of the women he treated were paying his bills and would not accept being blamed for their daughters' trauma. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0034`
- diagnosis: Jiang offers a material explanation for Freud's reversal: Freud's patients were young women, but their fathers were often paying him. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-ra2v9hkahz8@transcript:v1#seg-0033`, `video:predictive-history-ra2v9hkahz8@transcript:v1#seg-0034`
