Fetishist split is a psychological term used when an individual becomes obsessed or fixated with a person but feels it and expresses it as anger and disdain.
This sometimes happens when the object of fixation is unattainable to the point that transference is not possible. The object is then split to black. Had transference occurred, the object would have been split to white. It is the shame and anger of desiring transference to an unattainable object, in a nutshell
Freud's attempt to explain why some persons develop sexual fetishes. It's psychic split when a person is theoretically unable to resolve or integrate or reconcile. It's a psychodynamic explanation. Rarely mentioned these days
