RW'ers: Evidence for Freudian Psychology?

[ck4829]

Today, we will take a look at Freudian Defense Mechanisms and see how the RW Ideology actually supports some of Freud's theories.

Acting Out. Dealing with emotional stressors by actions rather than reflections or feelings. For example, a person facing a small problem responds quickly with intense passion when the situation would not have required it.
(RW example: Bush's 'plan' for Social Security 'reform')

Altruism. Dealing with emotional stressors by dedication to meeting the needs of others. For example, a person putting away her own problems starts to volunteer.
(RW example: Pat Robertson's Operation Blessing)

Anticipation. Dealing with emotional stressors by experiencing emotional reactions in advance of, or anticipating consequences of, possible future events and considering realistic, alternative responses or solutions. For example, after a difficult job interview an unemployed candidate expects that he might not be selected by the employer.
(RW example: Freeper's Pre-Election Panic. For example, they said they would start a revolution if Kerry won)

Avoidance. Dealing with emotional stressors by refusing to encounter situations, objects, or activities because of the fear of failures or difficulties. Often seen in phobias. For example, a worker refuses to confront an employer fearing his or her reactions.
(RW example: Avoidance to National Healthcare)

Compensation. Dealing with emotional stressors by overemphasizing other activities or situations. For example, a physically unattractive adolescent starts weightlifting.
(RW example: GLBT Bashing)

Denial. Dealing with emotional stressors by failing to recognize obvious implications or consequences of a thought, act, or situation. For example, a disabled person plans to return to former activities although it is evident it is virtually impossible.
(RW example: "The jury is still out on Global Warming")

Displacement. Dealing with emotional stressors by redirecting emotion from a 'dangerous' object to a 'safe' object. For example, a worker is angered by his superior but suppresses his anger; later, on return to his home, he punishes one of his children for misbehavior that would usually be tolerated or ignored.
(RW example: GLBT Bashing)

Idealization. Dealing with emotional stressors by overestimating the desirable qualities and underestimating the limitations of a desired object. For example, a lover speaks in glowing terms of the beauty of an average-looking woman he has recently dated.
(RW example: "Bush has been sent from God")

Projection. The opposite of introjection. Attributing one's own emotions or desires to an external object or person. For example, saying others hate you when it is you who hates the others.
(RW example: "The ACLU is the Enemy of the State)

1. In short

It's all about their penis. And penis envy for the RW chicks.

Good thing liberals have women that are real women and men that don't swing their penis around to be men....except me when I shower.
