Freud,the neglected philosopher? @Corvus
I must say that I do find freuds emphasis on sexuality incorrect.
But his notion of libido if interpreted as desire makes his thinking much more accurate.
I read somewhere that freud said people understand his theories too crudely.
And maybe he adjusted his thinking on literal sexuality as he progressed.
For me freud has many mistakes in his thinking,but he gets a lot of the basics correct.
With his mistakes I reinterpret his literal meanings to accord with my own experiences.
My saying freud is the most important thinker to grapple with is because he is right in so many things,yet wrong in a lot of things as well.
But he,unlike most thinkers,addresses the most important issues in a practical realist way.
