I miss arcades, games are still fun

Harmony with nature is our greatest strength.

Bogdanov:

With the onset of senility, the sexual functions, which appear last in the life of the organism, become extinct first; and their generative side, or function of conception, is disturbed before the emotional motor, that is, the individual sexual side--the sequence is again the reverse of what is observed in the growth of the organism.

Analogously, when a social organization is subjected to decomposition in an unfavorable environment, such as when a revolutionary party declines under the pressure of a blind reaction, the process of decline embraces first of all generally the most recently formed layers: the recent members of the party and the latest cells separate first; with a forced review of party doctrines, other things being equal, the most recent and the least "established" doctrinal elements are discarded first; or tactics reveals less durability than a program which lies historically deeper.

There is no reason to doubt that the scheme of the relative stability of historical layers is also applicable to all systems of the "inorganic" world. Only it is unusual for contemporary thought to consider them as organized systems, and their history is rarely known.

...

Where does mankind obtain such instruments as speech, ideas and norms? Not from external nature, as in the case of material Instruments, but from its own; from Its own activities and feelings, from its own experience. All of them are products of organized experience, realized by mankind in the course of thousands of years. The word is not an empty sound, but a social crystal of notions and aspirations transmitted from man to man; and such are also other more complex forms of ideology.

'The instinctual rebelliousness that resides underneath of every organization, affinity group, project, and action that we participate in; that reflexive spirit of resistance rooted in the basic existential understanding that recalcitrance is simply a more meaningful and joyous form of existence than docility. Too often our insurrectionary urges get bogged down in ideological costume, rhetorical mandate, and hobbyist paradigms. We channel our energies into dubious conduits of prefabricated dogma and inevitably burn out or become listless at the very mention of Revolution. Forms of resistance rooted in social obligations and lifestyle choices all too often fade into lives of despondency, alienation, boredom, or material comfort. It speaks to the very nature of our domestication that we only choose resistance so long as it feels like something we can win.' - Serafinski
