Xenosystems Fragments Quotes

“There is no “good life for man” (in general)—or if there is we know nothing of it, or not enough. Even those persuaded that they do, on the contrary, know what such a life should be, promote its universality only at the expense of being denied the opportunity to pursue it. If we need to agree on the broad contours of such a model for human existence, then reaching agreement will precede it—and “reaching agreement” is politics.
Some much wider world acquires a veto over the way of life you select, or accept, or inherit (the details need not detain us). We have seen how that works. Global communism is the inevitable destination.
The alternative to agreement is schism. Secession, geopolitical disintegration, fragmentation, splitting—disagreement escapes dialectics and separates in space.”
