Deleuze DIsorder

Deleuze fights psychoanalysis like a bad dream. The quality of psychoanalysis that bothers him is finding crystalline structures that shape what a human is. In some ways, psychoanalysis was a revolution that replaced old traditions with new laws on how humans are determined.

There seems to be a missed opportunity in psychoanalysis in Deleuze's mind. Why reject something arcane and replace it with something oppressive? The human is formless to Deleuze and we realize our potential in a maze rather than an actor in a play.

Speckled in with a preoccupation with absolute freedom of development is a fear of fascism. His writings suggest that fascism is order generated in a formless way. Fascism is to be avoided but could be a result of Deleuze's methods and he is careful to distance his thought from it--as if his fascination with Neitzche has shown that prioritizing a 'becoming' can be dubious in some minds.

For Deleuze, things are most real when they emerge from a nebulous origin and take shape with small acts of desire. Psychoanalysis, for instance, is artificial. It conceived after development and people then start to adhere to it afterward by contorting to its formula. But Fascism would not be like psychoanalysis and would have the origin that Deleuze deduces as most real.

Because of this connection, we have to judge what Deleuze is saying. Past philosophy likened the real with the good. For instance, Epictetus and the Stoics who aligned nature with ethics. Yet this primordial goop of Deleuze is not purely good and it is curious that his thought could have existed in the past but rejected because the nihilistic outcome. Are we left with the possibility that Deleuze is raising something problematic as the highest good?
