Finally, the Marie-Louse von Franz video clips get some pushback… here’s a slightly heated back and forth, with gcrawford starting to role model animus possession, and she/he likely doesn’t even know it.
Notice how she basically states a bunch of conclusions and orders of how everyone should behave (policing and school teachering)
I counter her with an observation that she’s advocating and playing out passive aggression, as aggression has to go somewhere. If you exclude overt aggression, then it comes out passively. I also describe the price of passive aggression as constantly policing and constant underlying fear.
Then her reply is amazing with more passive aggression, and personal splitting.
Conflict by definition is lack of self containment.
Being able to discuss in a open and vulnerable way, by definition means some level of self containment by both parties, which then means there’s not much conflict.
Then adding this 3rd party idea, is policing… Talking about policy and rules of behavior, is policing…
policy = police = politics
getting committed by her/his policy/policing, along with her emotional dysregulation that’s driving these sloppy definitions.
Then she closes with a double bind, both covert domination/manipulation and overt violence have no place in a relationship; and she exaggerates passive aggression along with overt aggression to create a stronger emotional sanction.
This is my reply, mostly from my first impressions, I could’ve probably refined it down and made it more succinct, as she’ll likely dismiss most of it, find some fragment to distort, then go on full attack…
or she’ll just disappear.
