Doyle; There are contradictions in the small network eros. Do Mommies have sexually predatory relationships with their children? Suppose the eros was on a larger scale? That is say some large scale massive social game with tens of thousands of men with all sorts of fantasy cartoons doing this that and the other thing? If that becomes eros where only specific groups of people can practice eros with a group, it is obvious the small family network is superior because it has a eros in the 'whole' family which is male female child adult etc. That a narrow group can't do. Eros should be thought of as a sort of fulfillment of strong connection to the world. One would presume that strong connection is a cognitive goal for language work, as well as emotion work. One can eat when needed, one can fuck when needed. So in effect if large scale eros was being produced one might ask why it connects only this way and not that. In other words why is the network structure physically limited? I can't see why if groups of masses of people are producing large scale eros that it would not be the dynamic and flexible process that small scale eros does now? The whole point of eros is vehement connection. To make clear the difference between vehement connection and 'rationalist' connection, it is not enough to build a society based upon word production. The workers must feel a strong connection to the socialist community. They must vehemently be part of socialism. Is this vehement connection like watching a romantic movie? Large scale eros means that the love is reciprocated, not watched passively in hungry silence. So Socialist ought to be able to resolve the contradiction you outline above Yoshie. Doyle
