Oedipal Anus

Share definition Flag
A polite way of saying "motherfucking asshole," as Oedipal refers to the "Oedipal Complex," in which a boy/man has feeling of romantic and/or sexual love for his mother. Oedipal, in turn, comes from "Oedipus," the character in the play by Sophocles, who grows up away from his mother and later marries her without knowing who she is and his relation to her.

Anus, of course, is that posterior anatomical orifice also known as the "asshole."

Oedipal Marxism

Oedipal Marxism is a paradigm in which the profit motive is the discrete unit-of-fear of mother has that her son will own property.
A tribe is a psychostructure of woman's fear that her son will lose interest in the law and pursue property.

Hence Oedipal Marxism.

Marxism discretizes this fear into a unit-of-fear. The superstructure of capitalism is the sum of the mother's fears.

Communism resolves this apprehension between mother & son into a climax of communion or Communism.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study.
