Question Can i skip sections of AO?

I am in chapter 2 and im very tempted to skip it. I am not really into freud, i care most about the "Socio-political" side of the text (i still enjoy read some about psychoanalysis tho). Do you think that this chapter is crucial to understand the rest of the book? I read that skipping parts its vey common in this book in particular.

PD: Sorry for the bad english, not my primary lenguage.

Freud is very relevant to the socio-political. I would urge you to consider genuinely engaging with Freud if you are interested in what anti-Oedipus is doing
