I've always regarded Reich pretty much as a crackpot--all those Sixties sex surfers hitting the beaches in search of the perfect orgasm and the ridiculous orgone accumulators.
(I do believe, BTW, that I personally have been in a few academic departmental offices and corporate "spaces," as well as Walmart stores, that seem to function as orgone dissipators.) Not to mention Freud with approval on a Marxist website, but there was also Reich's unnecessary vulgarization of Freudian theories regarding sexuality into a form of sex hygiene. It's nice to be reminded that the old crank, vain and wrong-headed as he undeniably was, was no dummy and had a good side, It's also good to be reminded that Reich, like that other obsessional neurotic Julian Assange, was gruesomely persecuted in the USA--and died of his oppression. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
