The common mistake of anger management wisdom is to assume that anger is as hunger - a finite end to be expended and satiated. Any experienced counselor knows this is not true however. Anger always works not as a hunger, but more akin to the theory of sexuality put forward by proponents of nofap, who resurrect long forgotten techniques of male vitalization under a modern language. In all, sexuality works as a producing-machine, a factory of a flow of desire. The male version of sexual energetics is to withdraw-inwards this inherently expulsionary force within themselves, uptaking the energy back into their selves and re-using it as is seen fit. The female version of this is given differently, though modified. The producing-machine is a machine producing internal pathways, increasingly insatiable hunger formed by the creation of spiritual entities within the self. Through processes akin to the semen-retention sex of the male, the female can uptake this energy and expel the positive bodily force created, the hunger’s being itself, in a process akin to menstruation.
All of this is to say, the nature of energy within the human body is one often misunderstood and vulgarized to be a fluid system, ie, a set of “appetites” desiring to be “satisfied”, thirsts to be slaked, and similar notions. This goes against wisdom of how the human form operates in countless ways, however. As Taleb laid out in tremendous detail in Antifragile, the human organism is an organic system, which therefore works on cyclical, not linear logics, along flows. As the body becomes more corpulent, its appetites increase in turn - the flow of eating is not a finite appetite, but a flow, which the self can integrate-within in increasingly intense ways, as they grow fatter and fatter and their daily consumption grows in turn.
Libidinal fucking reveals a similar notion to that of cyclicality, that of conversion of energies along the same plateau. The oldest desire has always been the desire of sex ignited by the heating of unsexual conflicts, male conquests, female defeat, enemy-friend relationships taken in account, all in order to create a scenario of blood-boiling hatred for the other partner, which provides a potent source of energy which is then easily converted into sexual-production, as at the level of the body, hatred and desire are the same force, that of blood or libido, hence the common expression of “blood boiling”.
The imprisonment cast upon those who lose their vitality is not an expansionary, but a contractionary, not an expending, but a gradual limiting. The male phallus is castrated further and further and without being given any alternative means to express itself (as in the martial tradition) or to replace itself with a feminine apparatus (as in the androgynous tradition), it gradually withers away. Flows work in this sense as monks always knew, their sexual desires dissipating after enough time in the monastery, their hunger making each successive fast that much easier. As images of the ultimate self-submitting slaves, these monks showed the way of the modern world, as people are entered into institution after institution of stricter and stricter tightening of the belt, until they’ve fully withered away, into dead-conduits, hollow tumors grafted onto the corpus of the social-machines.
