Sexual suppression supports the power of the church, which has sunk very deep roots into the exploited masses by means of sexual anxiety and guilt. Engenders timidity towards authority and binds children to their parents.

This results in adult subservience to state authority and to capitalistic exploitation. It paralyzes the interllectual critical powers of the oppressed masses because it consumes the greater part of biological energy.

Finally, it paralyzes the resolute development of creative forces and renders impossible the achievement for all aspirations for human freedom.

In this way the prevailing economic system (in which all single individuals can easily rule entire masses) becomes rooted in the psychic structures of the oppressed themselves.
