that's not what i asked though. i think it's a psychologically easier premise if you expect the acceleration to kill people that aren't you. it's why the leopards eating faces party always exists despite the fact that there faces are going to be eaten.
Yeah, fair. Besides my political leanings which can be easily hidden, I don't think I would personally be targeted in said acceleration. Sometimes existing in capitalism just makes me wish for literally anything else.
That’s very ironic since you’re the one who posed the question. The acceleration literally is happening as we speak, but it’s not something any one individual could have guessed or influenced, which is why accelerationism isn’t a real thing.
I fail to see any irony
