If Freud were alive today (hate him or not, he's a useful character in the story I'm about to tell), he would postulate a "signaling drive" (irresistible urge to signal to ingroup), which he would consider to be closely related to "death drive."
Hm? I feel Freud would see claims like "why can't we hate men?" as a manifestation of ego-id conflict regarding the Electra complex: to deny they love men is to refuse to identify as a competitor for their fathers' affection, conflicting with their id's desire to possess him.
I don't see how the two interpretations are incompatible though.
They aren't; a refusal to identify as a competitor (and instead to identify with the mother/"women") is equivalent to a "signaling drive", but it also suggests a psychosexual causal mechanism in addition to describing the behavior. I figure Freud wouldn't invent a new word.
Freud loved inventing drives though (e.g. his death drive is pure invention).
One thing I notice is that all ideologies seem to have some kind of psychosexual underpinning. marxism -- promise of free love after dissolution of families into communes feminism -- leveling of sexual competition monarchism -- tradwives? libertinism?
I don't think I agree with any of that specifically but the framing is so interesting I just wanna let you run with it
