Fuck Freud. He has nothing to do with today's serious psychology research.

  Serious! What is more serious than helping people find outlets for their violent and self-destructive fantasies? Or do therapists do something different nowadays...

    psychology does not always mean psychiatry does not always mean therapy. I talk about Psychology as a science. Freud has nothing to do with that.

      What is the point of a "pure" science of Psychology, don't we already have neuroscience, cognitive science, cybernetics...the list goes on. There are so many "pure" empirical disciplines focused on the studied of the mind, but psych is the only one where those findings have to be critically interrogated relative to their usefulness. Otherwise, Psychology is just lagging behind everything else.
