This is really interesting stuff. I'm particularly interested in the difficult of teaching Freud. I do a couple of hours of Freudian theory in my Foundation Psych class and and growing more trepidatious about it every year. But I've never heard anyone plotting against me in any cafeterias! We're in a horrible position if tipping the hat to an ideology has to take priority over telling student the facts in the matter. It's very po-faced, isn't it? Freud can be kinda fun to teach and learn about.
Agreed. I think one should know what one is “canceling” before doing so. Great thinkers are flawed as Carveth points out. I appreciate your feedback btw. My admiration for Freud grows in how he thought even if I don’t always agree with his conclusions. He himself seemed to sense at times this was all but a beginning.
