We had to cancel our trip to Maine. All I wanted to visit before I die was Reich's institute and private archive. Corona doesn't like maverick psychoanalysis apparently.

Everyone slags off late Reich Orgone stuff and elides that SEXPOL is the apotheosis of materialist psychoanalysis and accurately charts the relationship of class position to individual and collective psychology.

Absolutely, orgone principle is something more like a materialist blueprint for such relationships. Reich's mistake was that he wanted to articulate it with the bounds of empirical sciences.

Grunbaum has this line in on the foundations of psychoanalysis that just because a set of principles don't correspond to the quantification necessary to confirm empirical criteria, it doesn't automatically translate to 'this is a pseudoscience'. He shat on Popper like no other.
