Part 11/15:
Modern culture, influenced heavily by materialism, tends to deny our spiritual core, repressing the desire for divine justice and instead promoting raw, unmoderated impulses. This retraction from spiritual transcendence results in a society where identities are linked to repressed cravings—sexual, material, or power-driven—and where artificial idols (e.g., gender, pleasure, fame) replace the divine.
Freud’s concept of the "return of the repressed" implies that unacknowledged passions—fueled by societal repression—will erupt, often violently. Without divine guidance or a transcendent moral compass, individuals and societies tend to reenact ancient cycles of blood revenge—perpetually seeking reparation, legitimacy, and validation through violence, which only perpetuates chaos.
