The 1922 Poem That Linked the Russian Revolution to CryonicsOne group of anarchist artists planned on being around a long, long time.
In the aftermath of the war, a small group of writers, artists, and anarchists published a 14-page poem about cryonics, a fledgling theory mixing science and mysticism that advocated for the ultimate revolutionary tool: immortality.
This group, who called themselves the Biocosmists-Immortalists, felt that humans had two basic rights: the right to exist, and the right of free movement—and that these rights came with no expiration date. The group proclaimed in their 1922 manifesto, Izvestiia, that “immortality, resurrection, and rejuvenation” weren’t just ideas, they were the basis of their new movement. Death was just a roadblock on the road to revolution.

Quite to the contrary, death is the fairest of all. Rich, poor, man, woman, white, black, gay, straight, death eventually finds us all.

If you reproduce you must have death. Otherwise immortals shan’t have children.
