Fusion Bomb

    Sadism and masochism, in Freud’s final formulation, are fusions of Eros and the destructive instincts.

Masochism represents the fusion of the erotic instincts and the destructive instincts turned against oneself, the aim of the latter being self-destruction.

    What has kept the world safe from the bomb since 1945 has not been deterrence, in the sense of fear of specific weapons, so much as it’s been memory. The memory of what happened at Hiroshima.
