Gestalt psychology is the study of the how people reconstruct the world around them. Taking in sensory data, people reconstruct into wholes the world around them.
Perhaps in the process of this reconstruction we will find the pathologies that lead people to treat others so dispassionately? Could it be a simple problem of fetishizing another that affects how we reconstruct that person into a whole.
"Are you an ass man or a tits man?"
This seems like a rather pedestrian question, but it does hint at the ways that we focus on some aspect of another person objectively. From this we reconstruct someone and perhaps this view of another on terms that are selfish, albeit visually violent can bleed into the Gestalt.
This is merely an observation. I seek to look at it more.
Marxist fetishism and Gestalt psychology are the watchwords.
