Civilization and Its Discontents

Freud's insights are deeply rooted in his observations of society and psychology. I wonder what personal or historical factors influenced this analysis.

His perspective that internal conflict is unavoidable in civilization made me think about how much control we really have over our desires. Does this resonate with others' experiences?

In a world of social media and constant connectivity, I wonder if Freud's analysis still applies or if new dynamics have emerged that he couldn't have foreseen.
