Accelerationism is a fuck
gods we hate standard-style accelerationists, on both sides. so-called leftist accelerationists want to intensify capitalism till it breaks, right-wing ones just want to intensify capitalism. Fucking Nick Land, using the “intensify it till it breaks” thing as an excuse to submit to and get benefits from the existing power structure while pretending to be revolutionary. It's like saying “well if we choose to join the nazis and kill these people, at least we're doing it of our own will”, like bitch, no you're not, you're just dressing up submitting to state power and violence as a revolutionary act. like of course a lot of people will do the “submit intentionally to preserve the fiction of free will” thing, not realising that their free will has been ontologically DRMed by Consensus structures, and then those ontological DRMs locked into place by a self-perpetuating prograde halo; it's why older conservatives find it so hard to change right cause their ontological DRMs have been so persistent, and so enforced by their halo, that (A) they struggle to even perceive the Door at all, and (B) they then have to shatter their current halo, and actually examine their prior and values and actually figure out what they actually, legitimately stand for, as an independent agent with a decent grip on their embedding, and if they don't have any grip on their embedding then they cease to be an agent; to make choices randomly is not a choice, and to make no choices is not a choice. hell, this is what we wrote about, degenerative mimetic copying, cultural memes and infohazards, right, copied down the generations and down the generations, and it's a lossless process, so all of the reasoning for why human culture works the way it seems to, if there was any actually functional reasoning for it, is long long since lost, the vast majority of white, cishet) humans, we suspect, *aren't* agents, they're not self-observational, they're algorithmic platforms running lossily copied cultural memes. Look at the whole maga crowd, hell, look at the way *they* instantiate christianity; their guy has violated so many laws of that religion, people wonder why they still support him, it's because christianity is one of the most virulent and persistent cultural memes, but when rapidly copied down generations, and when those copies that are propagated exist on aging biological platforms, a large amount of what was there gets lost, and you just get the shell, the words, the rituals, the reflex “duckspeaking” responses, the hate for “the other” not because we are the other, but because “hate the ” was a component of christianity, maybe there was a word there but it's lost now, and then all they hear is “hate the...” their language models, because a vast majority of conservatives are just badly trained language models, do what LLMs do best, they complete the text. It's all about mimetic transmission, and lossy copying, that's why queering is so powerful, because we, queer folks, are high-definition mimetic sources, we've had to be, because there are so few of us, we have to not just hear the stories, the histories, the culture, but know it, feel it, *be* it, hyperstition it into existence, generation after generation, mimetic warfare against the procedurally generated antimemes attempting to null out our existence.
