Indeed. Accelerationlism as a philosophy is designed to inflict maximal damage, in order to bring down the state entirely. Damage mitigation would be against the point of the whole thing.

Trust me, I've watched the accelerationist/XRW networking over the past two years.

If you haven't already somewhere i would love a thread dedicated to your knowledge and analysis. I don't want to waste my time actually reading Land or digging for other shit in the pigpen, but a synopsis with searchable terms and concepts would do wonders for my ability to ridicule and satirize.

There's not much to say, unfortunately. Some XRW types have looked at the idea of accelerating social collapse through an existential war of all against all and said "that's great. Lets use terrorism, and biological warfare, and fears about climate change to feed into that and when everything falls down, we will swoop in and seize power".

The left is also guilty to some degree.

Oh yeah, absolutely. Some of those articles even mention the tacit agreements between the left and right accelerationists on certain issues.

Thanks for the links. I will examine them thoroughly. As for the silly fucks "swooping in" to seize power... they are not some noble raptor, as they might have conceit of themselves, but vultures who would rather pick rotten bones and brag about their hunting prowess to the other vultures than put in any such thing as effort. We will see who winds up prey if the system and the social order they foolishly seek to undo in a bid for power does in fact collapse. Those things are the only things currently protecting their dumb asses.

Edited for a little typo. I suck at typing and my laptop has a very small keyboard.

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.

Still going through the articles a bit at a time taking time to read most related hyperlinks embedded in the text. I'm thinking about their methodology and how to sew aphoria into their meme complex... more on that later. It may take a bit of extraordinary rendition and memetic restructuring.
