In the Theory of Acceleration lectures, Land actually hesitates to embrace the idea that he is r/acc, arguing that 'right accelerationism' doesn't properly exist and emerges reflexively as a phrase only because left-accelerationism is invented.

He goes on to express disbelief at what a right-accelerationist project would actually entail, and that he'd prefer accelerationism without political pre-conditions. As far as I know, it was from that discussion that the term 'unconditional acceleration' emerged.

So my suspicion of u/acc has generally been opposite of @parallaxoptics (that the u/acc crowd are crypto-cathedralists), I've been concerned that the u/acc crowd are all Landian crypto-racists.

is it still a suspicion?

The topic of race is largely missing from the u/acc blogosphere, that's bound to draw suspicion from both the left and right. But really, a philosopher's power to carry out genocide or achieve utopian multiculturalism are so slim... what does it matter?
