Was carl jung red or blue pilled ?

Ok. We can all agree it's not science but was he into some truth ? With the shadow stuff and all of that.

That depends on what you mean by red-pilled. The metaphor has been perverted on Yea Forums so now it doesn't mean seeing reality as it is but believing in a distorted right wing narrative of the world.

Red pilled means red pilled. If you believe in any narrative you're blue pilled.

jung is the reddit of psychoanalysis
oh yea and psychoanalysis is useless btw

i thought freud was reddit.

C.G Jung's observations concerning America:
>Another thing that struck me [in the American] was the great influence of the Negro, a psychological influence naturally, not due to the mixing of blood. The emotional way an American expresses himself, especially the way he laughs, can best be studied in the illustrated supplements of the American papers; the inimitable Teddy Roosevelt laugh is found in its primordial form in the American Negro. The peculiar walk with loose joints, or the swinging of the hips so frequently observed in Americans, also comes from the Negro.[3] American music draws its main inspiration from the Negro, and so does the dance. The expression of religious feeling, the revival meetings, the Holy Rollers and other abnormalities are strongly influenced by the Negro. The vivacity of the average American, which shows itself not only at baseball games but quite particularly in his extraordinary love of talking – the ceaseless gabble of American papers is an eloquent example of this – is scarcely to be derived from his Germanic forefathers, but is far more like the chattering of a Negro village. The almost total lack of privacy and the all-devouring mass sociability remind one of primitive life in open huts, where there is complete identity with all members of the tribe.

"We do not know whether Hitler is going to found a new Islam. He is already on the way; he is like Mohammad. The emotion in Germany is Islamic; warlike and Islamic. They are all drunk with wild god. That can be the historic future.”

He's saying they essentially have the same archetype of nationalist, warlock that rouses and embodies the spirit of the people.
The question of personal characteristics and morality is indifferent, you could try to argue whether Hermes or The Joker are alike characteristically and end up emptyhanded except for a few generalisations but their archetype is unequivocally 'jester'.

Why yes, I am a muslim, how'd you guess?

I mean if you consider the parallels, Napoleon is also similar. I think that'd be a fairer comparison but still not do it justice.

These persons were followed by a legacy of conquest and the codification of their dogma into law, for better or worse.

Hume shits all over reason too though, if you go the Humean route you end up knowing absolutely nothing with any certainty at all.

Oddly enough, that's a smarter sentiment than pseudo mystical woo woo

And yet you live your life relying on that very same reason, and all the technology it produces

I believe you should go there and peek under the curtain of our percieved linear reality and then come back and choose to live in it. But you should never become a filthy empiricist and forget the breadth of the unknown and become drunk with arrogance and hubris based on arbitrary measurements.

>become drunk with arrogance

Says the religious man who claims to know everything

You mean claims to know nothing.

for jung, early alchemy was the expression of the neverending tendency of human mind to seek ways into which transform itself into something new. all he ever wrote about the subject was basicaly his argumentation for such hypothesis.
he himself said that his pursuit was different from sciences. he was not interested (much) in scientific knowledge but the meaning of spiritual conjecture in men through history.

You are right, I know about hume's problem of induction, but Empiricism gave us vaccines, deductive arguments gave us the holocaust.

Are vaccines and the subsequent inflation of the human population objectively a good thing?

Then why does he claim a monopoly on truth and morality? Seems to me a pretty dumb idea if you know nothing

idk freud was more based. Incest porn trending and feminists trying to step into men's shoes without creating that much original content suggests penis envy. I mean, a female James Bond, female Ghostbusters, female generals, females in movies and literature that can beat the shit out of gigantic men shows a serious pathological problem with women.

Attached: PENISENVY.jpg (600x300, 67K)

Junds analysis of myth and dream are far superior.

The big difference between the two can be summed up to Freud thought people are all experience and nurture and Jung thought people have atavistic tendencies or are more nature.

I think you could also argue that the whole female penis envy in story is mostly because in terms of the hero's journey the female is inactive. For a woman life happens to them, they don't go out and make their own path like men do. Even in sex they don't fuck they get fucked. I think it goes beyond sex itself and into mythological archetype. There is no females heros journey so all they can do is emulate the males heros journey which.

Jung was purplepilled. His writings are enjoyable, but his focus on spirituality and esoterism made his writings less scientific, but more of literary/spiritual worth.

Freud however is exceptionally based. Specially when you read his texts.

Baby stemstudent had his 101 in Science studies how cute.

Superior psychfag reporting in. It depends on where you study in the world. Freud is unavoidable in psychology the same way christianity is in western atheist countries today: It's widely implicit in the way we think: Mental representation of objects, drives, the subject as an hermeneutical centrum, how memories are charged with emotion etc. etc.

I see it more commonly used as something that is approved of with questions like 'Is this movie redpilled?' and such.

To follow a single person in any field is to be bluepilled regardless of the person you are following. Read everything, compare everything, Freud's psychology was utilized to create modern marketing/propaganda, regardless of the fights between who matters within psychology as a whole - instead of viewing each idea separately - it is all useless if you only choose to follow one of them, if you follow anything at all you have become bluepilled regardless of what you follow. To be a Freudian or a Jungian is to have lost by default.

Psychoanalysis is a method devised by the counter-initiation in order to render people incapable of spiritual attainment. I wish I was memeing but that's literally what Guenon's brainlet take on psychoanalysis is.

Jung is empirical retard. Empiricism isn't enough to be considered science though.

The man of culture finds the whole past relevant; the bourgeois and the barbarian find relevant only what has some pressing connection with their appetites. Those who remember alone have a sense of relatedness, but whoever has a sense of relatedness is in at least the first grade of philosophy. Henry Ford’s statement that history is bunk is a perfectly proper observation for a bourgeois industrialist, and it was followed with equal propriety by another: “Creeds must go.” Technology emancipates not only from memory but also from faith.

His relationship with Freud was interesting. They were close associates in the beginning and Jung viewed him as a teacher. They diverged once he got a full glimpse of Freud's system, which he called "scatological"-- it depicted a view of human motivations that was greasy, soulless, lustful and driven only by base instinct.

Jung in contrast believed in the sacred , that human motivations were inspired, at their highest levels, by universal archetypes steeped in the most earnest and spirited, hopefull efforts of human nature over all time.

Granted both thinkers were products of their time, and both ended up on decidedly different ends of the Nazi beast. Freud had every reason to believe people were driven by demons, while Jung was sitting at his nazi approved university desk.

That's a pretty crass misunderstanding of Freud. Freud is more about Logos and reason overcoming instinct.

It is characteristic of the barbarian … to insist upon seeing a thing “as it is.” The desire testifies that he has nothing in himself with which to spiritualize it; the relation is one of thing to thing without the intercession of the imagination. Impatient of the veiling with which the man of higher type gives the world imaginative meaning, the barbarian and the Philistine, who is the barbarian living amid culture, demands the access of immediacy. Where the former wishes representation, the latter insists upon starkness of materiality, suspecting rightly that forms will mean restraint.

The average man of the present age … does not want to be a sentimentalist in his endeavors; he wants some measure for purposeful activity; he wants to feel that through the world some increasing purpose runs. … But since his metaphysic calls only for magnitude and number, since it is becoming without a goal, it is not a source of distinctions in value. It is a system of quantitative comparison. Its effect therefore has been to collapse the traditional hierarchy and to produce economic man, whose destiny is mere activity.

The theory of empiricism is plausible because it assumes that accuracy about small matters prepares the way for valid judgment about large ones. What happens, however, is that the judgments are never made. The pedantic empiricist, buried in his little province of phenomena, imagines that fidelity to it exempts him from concern with larger aspects of reality.

Guenon's take on psychology was rather spooked. He seemed afraid of it, instead of rationally critical. He failed to see the good fruits that could rise from it.

>the problem with psychology
It comes from the terrible interpretation that psychoanalysis, freudian, that is, is an excuse for self-indulgence, since all problems span from repression of desires. However, in his five essays on hysteria, Freud declares that the idea is not unconditional fulfilling of desires, but making desires conscious AND THEN making a decision upon them -- now that you are conscious of your desires, you can decide if the repression made sense, or whether you could indulge that desire.

Sadly, most modern academia tends towards the latter instead of a balanced view. But this wasn't Guenon's criticism. This is my criticism.

>guenon's criticism of psychology
His criticism was actually one such that since initiation happens through the mind, and considers that which is revealed to be above the individual mind, then that it cannot be considered as something of the subconscious mind. However, this is more of a linguistic confusion than an epistemological or ontological one. The issue is, "subconscious" does not NECESSARILY mean "below ordinary consciousness", but rather "outside" of it. It is simple: you cannot be aware of all things at the same time. Attention requires focus. For that reason, many psychologists, Jung included, used the term Unconscious -- that which is ordinarily known by the conscious mind.

However, if you read Jung, it is blatantly obvious that although his Works are extensively erudite, he dumbed it down so that it may fit the scientific box. His goal was to make Depth Psychology -- that branch of psychology that deals with religious experiences as well as with the metaphysical nature of mind -- accepted as a scientific corpus.

>alchemy
Jung's works on Alchemy, mainly on "Psychology and Alchemy" and "Alchemical Studies" are deeply complex, and requires a mind versed in symbols, both felt and thought of. I could only understand part of it because I had been studying hermeticism for three years before I grabbed it, and even though most of remained opaque to me. To understand his commentaries on the nature of the Lapis, and the symbology of numbers in dreams, it was necessary for me to refer to Kabbalah as well as geometrical/numerological symbolism, and still I feel like there is so much more to be extracted from it. The Massa Confusa has to be separated before it can make sense. Only when all the Elements of the Massa Confusa have been thoroughly individuated can they be joined so as to bring about the realization of the Lapis.

>For that reason, many psychologists, Jung included, used the term Unconscious -- that which is ordinarily UNknown by the conscious mind.

I'm curious if there is a good starting point to read through Jung's essays and works, if possible. I've read through his Man and his Symbols stuff, and was curious if there was more that I could read.

Was he, really, towards the end? I know he got the boot for questioning his master, but did he really go black pill rather than drift into a fugue until he perished?

what are some essential Jung books?

Actually it's a conception as old as man, most obviously seen in religiosity's such as the Occult. Jung borrowed much from it.

Man and his Symbols is actually a pretty bad introduction, it's made for the layman and so naturally bastardises his psychology with simplicity, the archetypes seem as toys. None the less Man and his Symbols is of the smallest fraction of Jungianism. Read the true introduction Modern Man in search of a Soul. The first couple essays are just the typical principles of dream interpretation, therapy and the likes. Each essay better than the last. Especially the chapter on literature. Anyhow. After that read Psyche and Symbol. Maybe Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious. Maybe his biography Memories, Dreams, Reflections. Things like that, until you want to have a completely in depth reading of Jung from start to finish you can never dive into Jungianism in whole.

In this order.

>Modern Man in search of a Soul
>Psyche and Symbol
>Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious
>Memories, Dreams, Reflections
At this point you can continue to just read around or completely dive into Jungianism. If so read these:
>A History of Modern Psychology (Jung Lectures at Zurich)
>William James: Writings 1878 - 1899
>William James: Writings 1902 - 1910
>Or if you wish to skip reading the entirety of James' work you can instead read his Principles of Psychology
>The Basic Writings of Sigmund Freud
>Psychology of the Unconscious (This is what caused the split between Freud and Jung and contains the seed of the rest of Jung's psychology in life, such as the archetypes, the collective unconscious, or even simply the respect of art as something in and of itself apart from individual representation)
>A Theory of Types

Why not let the modern bloodletters and poachers handle your kids? Are you perhaps spiritual or any other form of heretic?

Jung was an asset of the OSS (predicessor of the CIA) during WW2, he advised the allies on strategy based on the psychoanalysis of Hitler and co. His expertise was also used to some extent for the post war denazification process.

Either he was a plant before too or he changed his mind on Nazism when the war broke out. We may never know, most of his work for the allies is still classified.

I don't see why it would necessarily have any profound meaning.

The question whether there is an archetype of all archetypes carries only epistemological ramifications.
