“I want to be recognized.”

This is the voice that dominates today's era.

Recognition is not the only concern of politicians and celebrities. Almost everyone wants to be recognized, so they open a YouTube channel, collect souls to buy coins, accumulate better knowledge such as the qualifications of a great sage, and build a better body through training and management.

This is because repression is the main mechanism operating in this era.

In particular, in today's society, not only the culture fueled in the modern era, but also the oppression mechanisms created by Confucianism at a deeper level play a major role. This Confucian oppression, ironically, was more repressive on mothers who were oppressed by the patriarchy. In the name of a sublime motherly sacrifice for the patriarchal structure (usually the father's own law), it operates as oppression, hiding the fact that it is oppression.

Subsequently, this oppression mechanism was transformed into a form of 'brotherhood because of familism' by political forces who currently hold hegemony in support of moral maternalism, which is 'the desire to be a good mother who protects children from evil'. It has dazzling characters like "Shut up my son!"

Collectively, this phenomenon is called oppression by negative mothers. The moral motherhood created by Confucianism is very easily transformed into negative motherhood. This was the expression of the most powerful figure actually exercising oppressive control for the purpose of protection.

In such a situation of intense oppression, the desire to be recognized also became stronger.

Very simple. The reason he was pressured not to eat the Choco Pie he so desperately wanted was because he had no choice but to focus all his attention on how he could gain the qualifications to eat the Choco Pie.

As a result, within the structure of oppression, compromise methods emerge to accept oppression and satisfy the desire to be recognized.

From this point of view, the idea that a person must be well shaped in order to be recognized as a work. This means that the line cannot be crossed. It is said that in order to be recognized, it is necessary to have the form of a 'good boy' that does not cross the line.

So, many politicians, celebrities, and aspiring good boys living in this era try to fully draw out how well they are polite and who live with righteous thoughts.

It's like the state of children on an audition program watched by mothers trained in Confucian moralism, aloud contemplating how to show their mothers that they are worthy of their love.

In this way, the form in which the desire for recognition is pursued in an oppressed society demonstrates the dynamism of the desire to be recognized by the oppressed subject.

Therefore, no matter how much a mother loves her like a child who has grown into a good and noble child, she always feels an emptiness in her heart that cannot be filled.

This is a problem of course.

The desire to be recognized is created by oppression. However, if the power of oppression is strengthened by granting the authority to consent to the acknowledgment of the subject of repression to satisfy the desire for recognition, the desire for recognition will inevitably be further strengthened.

It's like a banquet of endless fun. In fact, amid the demands, discipline, and reprimands of mothers. To put it more dramatically, it is the appearance of pouring water into poisonous poison, and making the poison even bigger on its own. Satisfaction is absolutely impossible.

In fact, the meaning of the desire to be recognized does not mean that the psychodynamic power symbolized by the mother must be recognized as a better and more beautiful child.

The meaning of the desire to be recognized which is known as the reality of oppression is the desire to escape from oppression.

Therefore, the desire for recognition can only be fulfilled if it is manifested in the direction of liberation from oppression.
