Ah, see, I’m not an accelerationist because I am not within the top 10% of the wealth holders in my society, I am in fact disabled and crippled, and thus stand a very, very good chance at dying fairly quickly if the entire national (and to a great extent, world) economy suddenly collapses.
If you think the pain and suffering is bad now… and don’t get me wrong, it is…
Well, multiply it by between 100x to 1000x, thats what a completely uncontrolled or horrendously mismanaged economic collapse will do.
Rampant homeless and famine. Massively increased military adventurism. Migrant Crises.
I’d rather uh, not make things even worse, for billions of people, cause tens to hundreds of millions of unnecessary deaths?
Like, you do realize that all the hypercapitalist tech bro accelerationists… they’re the ones that invented, popularized, and push the modern concept of accelerationism, right?

Because they’ll emerge as kings.
And most of us will just die, or become slaves.
