large social institutions built around creating a common culture of belonging with your coworkers
I wouldn't be able to say much on that cause I was a kid and probably filtered out a lot of what parents told me happened at the factory. My parents and grandparents lived on a street named after the factory, all 50 apparent buildings from five to twelve stories high build specifically for the workers of the factory. All my family worked at the factory. Everyone seemed to have know everyone from work.
The factory organized a bit of cultural stuff at the factory sanatorium I described in the previous post. There were busses that takes workers to the forest were the sanatorium was when the shift ended.
I remember my mom telling me about her brief stint in the factory choir and one time she won factory skiing race. That probably happened before the fall.
There was a lot of mandatory political organizing but my family hated it. No one of them was into communism.
...camp movies..
Welcome, or No Trespassing was the big one. It's a children's comedy and I remember likings it as a kid but have absolutely zero recollection of it not.
Also you said video games, did you grow up in the 80s?
I was born in the late eighties. So most of the things I remember were after the fall. I went to the sanatorium with my grandma for the first time in 93, I think and to the camp in 94 or 95.
I got a NES clone in 94. In the city park we had a whole bunch of Soviet-made electromechanical arcade machines. Those were pretty cool, you can look them up on YouTube. There were also Soviet Nintendo game-and-watch clones called Electronica .
