This is Jonathan Peugeot. Welcome to the symbolic world. The I recently recorded my interpretation of K-pop Demon Hunters,

and watching that movie and thinking about what was going on in it

and what it meant and, you you know what were the strengths and the

weaknesses of it it really made me reflect on the question of self-esteem self-esteem culture and how it

you know the problem that it that that are in that vision and how it is the same and how it is different from what I believe

is kind of the true Christian ontology,

the true Christian way of being.

So I thought we could explore it for this month's patron video.

And so before we started, thank you for supporting what I'm doing.

It's really through your support that I'm able to be able to do this.

And it's given me a lot of latitude to start the press, to do all the things that I'm doing.

So I truly appreciate it.

And so hopefully these extra videos are worth it and are fun for you.

So, you know, since the 1960s, there's a really wonderful documentary

called The Century of the Self.

It is definitely worth looking into.

And that documentary, what it does is it talks about a shift

that happened in the 1960s that was started a little bit before,

where in some ways Freud's vision was inverted and this

idea in some ways of the repressed person the idea because when Freud talked about repression

he talked about all these desires that we had to that we had he was suggesting that we had to repress it.

He could see that our desires were being repressed
