Not that we are Communists. Socialist-leaning, maybe.

13. authoritarianism and fascism are a masturbation problem

authoritarianism is sometimes measured with the Uncertainty Avoidance Index (UAI) and the sex on the brain theory explains that irrational need for certainty as a mental disorder that can be triggered and magnified by right handed masturbation.

so fascism is a masturbation problem

the koran 'man' 'dates' it---- "man can only have sex with his wife and that which the right hand possesses"

freud student Wilhelm reich studied the rise of facsism in austrian youth in the 30s and wrote "Mass Psychology of Fascism" in which he claimed it wasn't until the youth began to masturbate that they began to believe in 'god'/certainty

authoritarianism mandates sexual repression to increase right handed masturbation, by default, because it thrives on it and the recent pandemic with social distancing increasing masturbation blew up the fascism.

incels rejoice

It's in the same category as space alien abductions. ONE book about it that's 9 MILLIONTH in popularity on Amazon.

Next time I see it I'm reporting.

for 99.9% of our time surrounded by natural uncertainty, develop an irrational need for closure and certainty? why are humans committing planetary suicide? lack of a god? you going to burn a theory?

maybe the best evidence that it has value is when people get a laugh out of that interpretation of the origin of fascism, sexism, racism and republicanism.

it's irreverent, subversive, and funny and that's what matters until we get to where the 'scientists' in the appropriate fields are able to get the research money to 'prove' it. even then there will be book burners and the offended.
