I'm curious on your opinion on this
they are arguing that going full left would let it doom the west for good so it can be rebuilt faster
instead of letting the left having it gradually
I don't want my children to suffer like they would under full retard.
the thing is, if it becomes inevitable, at least your grandchildren would have a good future
😅
don't take this too seriously, it's just food for thought
I don't think we've gone over the edge yet. There are signs of push back. I'll give it a watch.
we aren't in a point of no return
but we are taking every step necessary to get there
Even the USSR managed to produce Ayn Rand
It takes a lot to go beyond help
I don't like Ayn Rand but she was antithetical enough to the status quo to be worth mentioning
the point they were entertaining was, if it would take a long time to get there, and the way is set anyway. Maybe letting it burn would be good
You can't have free healthcare, education, food, RSI, etc if your economy goes to shit
that video is standard accelerationist crap
everyone would be forced to take care of themselves
they're forgetting 1984.
there will be ashes. that's not in doubt. what is in doubt is that anything will rise from them.
our surveillance state technology is near perfect.
there's no rising from that.
they'll be able to monitor behavior to the point where they'll be able to predict anti-state thoughts before you have them and disappear you pre-emptively.
I think our unprecedented technology and well... globalism will kick in here in a way that's never happened before, we might not GET a chance to rebuild because this time the censorship, oppression and slavery will be too complete.
exactly ^^
so the accelerationists are just accelerating into a steel wall.
This is a good breakdown of what the plan is and is a bit deeper of a take than the usual "cultural marxism"talking point you can get from any pundit these days
Don't tread on me but it's the final boss
_tread on me and I'll tread on you_
A Sherman is a nice size city tank, anyways
If you put rubber tracks on it so you don't tear up the road, it can turn on the spot
Really easy to park, therefore
And if you're in a hurry you absolutely positively will be made way for
as a thought experiment, I could see accelerationism in *limited fields* to be effective **if and only if** a societal collapse doesn't occur.
Take for example IT censorship from the big ones, promote that to the level where the average Joe will no longer find it acceptable (we're already seeing this with Twitter to an extent), at that point alternatives will crop up, and things would decentralize at least for a while. In a best case scenario we could even get "incorruptible" alternatives. Point is as long as there's no total collapse we can hypothetically rebuild one area of our civilization at a time.
Can do a good 40kph, IIRC
could apply to other areas as well. Universities are overrun by Neomarxists? Start something new, a better university online
one problem is that the value of a degree is dependent on the credibility of the school. a new school, especially an online school, would have low credibility.
isn't that what JBP is doing?
that being said existing schools are burning their credibility at an amazing rate
yeah, it won't be *that* bad if we have NO credible schools for a couple of years
