Dealing with Boomer Parents and Unemployment

just cause you put a lot of emotional investment into reading hundreds of pages of freudian nonsense doesn't mean it's valid. You don't have to ascribe any tendencies you talk about to authoritarian personality. These people's ideological make up is entirely due to their class not some special mental qualities unique to them or deriving from some childhood trauma

prove it

prove the opposite without references to unsubstantiated pseud shit

Don't mind the guy obsessed with rationalwiki-tier "debunking" of freudianism. His specialty is not reading primary sources, copy pasting third hand criticisms that verge on yellow journalism and fallacious argumentation. His entire reduction of The Authoritarian Personality to "freudian pseud shit" is a typical example here. The book is like 90% sociology and data interpretation.

He honestly believes that the humanities are there to destroy STEMtopia and he can't be bothered to reflect on the fact that his obsession mirrors perfectly the alt-right's anti-intellectualism.

I'm pretty sure he has personal stakes in this topic, people otherwise don't tend invest so much bullshit juice into stuff. He's either on medication and sees the criticism from the psychoanalytic side as a threat to his own justification of being a druggie, or he has other mental problems that he firmly believes will magically disappear after the revolution.

You do realize that only around 10% of whites in America are descended from Anglo-Saxons.

you could just get a job bartending or something instead of just "looking" for some job

WASP is more like a mindset and set of values than an ethnicity. My mom is an Italian Irish mutt and my Dad's family are Quebecois but their values are in lockstep with protestant work ethic and bootstraps bullshit. My dad can't accept that he got lucky enough to become a landlord and land a high paying middle management gig.

It is bigoted from the moment that you're forgetting that most of the so called """white""" workers were socialist even in countries like America during the beginning of the XX century

who are you talking about? you know that more than one person sees through that nonsense?
I'm not STEM
great analysis! I remember when I was a teen too, where thought that I could psychologize away any opposition
dubious, self-serving statistics with freudian commentary (what you call "data interpretation")
lmao, how convenient that anybody who opposes you has repressed mental issues. this person your talking about sounds like he got under your skin

If they started poor and became "middle class" they're more likely to be reactionary because they think the system works and if there are problems now it's because it's not like it used to be when they had social mobility.
