You know what I've noticed. As things in the US have started to accelerate you see a lot less people arguing for accelerationism.
The Thielites have if anything been emboldened. Curtis yarvin and Nick land should not be getting the attention they currently are receiving.
I'm glad that i have no idea what any of those words mean.
I unfortunately know some, because I studied Mark Fisher a bit too much in my younger years in search of some revolutionary kernel. But even knowing the words I'm unsure how Thiel relates to the other 2. This must be some new canon among the cybernetic god-complex-masked-as-schizophrenia crowd (I'm trying to find some way to avoid haphazardly referring to Schizophrenia for this, but it's hard to do because Land and that crowd was so focused on this 'philosophical schizophrenia' from Deleuze and shit. Any advice? What other term can be used to keep these separate?)
It's a classic case of fuck around and find out.
I rarely ever saw it seriously argued for outside of right-wing circles or r/politicalcompassmemes. That said, the argument was never for accelerationism, it was recognition that neither the Democrats or the Republicans can actually do anything to decelerate the decline, they can only accelerate into slightly different walls.
