    The question at the heart of Reich's book was this: why did the masses turn to authoritarianism even though it is clearly against their interests?

    labor aristocrats denying historical material conditions in favor of inner psychological idealism, typical PMC radlib!

      Check out the actual book. Reich quotes Marx throughout and clearly has a dialectical understanding of the issue. Sexual pathology is intensified by capitalism and vice versa in countless ways. Also, the PMC radlib shrinks all of us hate likewise despise Reich because the dude was a member of the KDP.
