Modern Fascism and the Ignorance of the Individual
Reich expressed frustration over the general public's inability to recognize emerging fascism, attributing this failure to a deep ignorance of one's own character structure. He observed this pattern in the psychoanalytical movement under Freud, the church in Vienna, and the rise of the Nazis in Berlin. The hosts compare Reich's observations to the current socio-political climate, where they perceive a similar "takeover of the body" by the state.
