All of this is isomorphic to Nietzsche's nihilism as a process of creative destructive that must be moved through - accelerated, even, in his own words.

I'll also take this opportunity to point out that
@ObCap's essay that Land called "fundamentalist" was deemed as such for taking accelerationism thought to its core, by tracing D&G back into Marx and Nietzsche, and that this was something to be affirmed.2 replies 0 retweets 4 likes -

Is u/acc a fundamentalist version of Accelerationism in your view?

Replying to @brightabyss @realMaxCastle and
Yeah. Land introduced both terms and used them interchangeably, but what is important is that it is an attempt to think acceleration-in-itself. I don't see much of a different between this and what ObCap was/is doing (dunno what they would think of that claim though, haha)

And, clearly, the call to avoid politicalization of the process operates as a reminder to just embrace the trajectory (take the brakes off, because they won’t work anyway) to see it through to its conclusion?

And no one sees how “embrace, and take the brakes off, because they won’t work anyway” makes you complicit the capitalist processes?

I'm ok with complicity, as I generally see the horror that is to come is better than the alternative horror that could come.

At least you are honest about that. Which is appreciated. What do you see as the horror to come? And what is this worse fate you would like to avoid?

Well we are wandering into speculative territory here but... For example, technological advancement is the best path to solve the ecological crisis but such development can only occur through experimentation unguided by political concerns.

Has the crisis been caused by capital itself? Of course. This doesn't really change the situation we find ourselves in.
