Many if not most people who use accelerationism reference it in a "world burning" mindset. You're in murky waters there and for me, it's the same as saying "I am a hyper-progressive". Utopianism always fails because it is impossible, every Utopian ideology attempted at scale has led to mass famines and genocide.

Markets haven't and that is because of this strange mechanism called pricing. When people can collectively and freely work within a market structure pricing signals inform everyone where to allocate resources. This is what socialists/marxists/fascists/whatfuckingeverists just can't wrap their heads around.

If you want to accelerate anything accelerate freedom from each other.

There is a very good chance we lose our inalienable rights to a dictatorship that is controlling the minds of millions of young Americans through technology.

We accelerate in to that... ?

I don't believe in utopias. I do believe in dystopias however. All I want to do is break the dystopia. Go back to a somewhat level of normal we were used to for a while.

And idk if you've noticed. We don't have Inalienable rights. We might think we do but we definetly do not. Ask california or new jersey how they enjoy their second amendment. Our youth is being mind controlled by big tech. We do not have free and fair elections.

WTF do you want to hold on to so badly?

Inalienable rights do not disappear because someone is oppressing them. If you are referring to the violation of all of our rights? Absolutely, we have been in a police state at least since 9/11. Maybe it has been a democratic police state, more like Singapore than we'd like to admit.

WTF do you want to hold on to so badly?
