Klappentext

The Need for Control: Insecurity Run Amok is about how the insecurity bred in childhood, from various strains of dysfunction, leads in adulthood to the dual needs to control others and to be controlled by others. It covers power & control, childhood development, sadomasochism, the history of political control, tyranny, Henry Kissinger, plutocrats, tyrants, and much more. "The Need for Control: Insecurity Run Amok" simplifies a complex subject: why some people (martinets) need to control others, while others (marionettes) need to be controlled by them. The dual needs to control and be controlled are based on insecurity, rooted in childhood trauma and dysfunction. ISSUES INSIDE THE NEED FOR CONTROL Why do some people need to control others - friends, relatives, lovers, spouses, professors, plutocrats, politicians - while others need to be controlled by them? What's the difference between power and control? Do you have power? If so, what kind of power? How do you use it? Why has Marxism, which has failed everywhere and caused hundreds of millions of deaths, become so popular? Why was the American Revolution so important? Why are some kids well-behaved and grateful for freedom, while others constantly protest, destroy property, lust for anarchy and tyranny, and elect the likes of Zohran Mamdani? Why are so many wealthy people liberals, despite capitalism providing every advantage imaginable? In "The Need for Control: Insecurity Run Amok," learn how the need for control affects your life and that of your children. According to Rudov, "We first battled our mothers for control in the womb. Unfortunately, a growing number of unhinged thugs never left the womb. Look at the angry, violent, insecure, know-nothing kids around the world, worshiping Karl Marx and rioting in the streets; you can link this dysfunction to their childhoods. To all who crave control -- and those who willingly surrender to it: Get a grip!"
