People no longer remembered the Golden Age of the 20th Century. They didn’t remember the miraculous technology or the cruel wars that followed. They didn’t remember when juggers first played The Game or how it came to be played with a dog skull…

Would you prefer your longhouse in post-industrial HR department variety or in classic tending a patch of stringy root vegetables outside a literal long straw hut variety

Great writing.

Great article

Industrial society is awesome if you get to just reap the benefits while working a non-industrial job. I'd literally rather just live with the Amish than ever work in a power plant again though. In my opinion, the payoff is only worth it when the input it invisible to you.

the amish are wise. and admirable. some societies live simple because that is all they're capable of. while some rare societies live simple because they're wise enough to understand the pitfalls of overly complex societies and have heeded the warnings about the treacherous nature of modernity itself.
