From my spliced dna perspective, this is a problem with maintaining "no one to your right". Everyone looks to be a leftist. u/acc wants to get past this sort of thinking, as limiting.

It's not about pointlessly signalling "righter than though" BS. It's about accepting and imbibing core NRx political analysis in order to better understand the instantiation of contemporary Power dynamics i.e. the techonomic bio-playing field.

NRX political analysis as in "USG is poorly formalized sovereign corporation" or as in "those lefties are really evil doods destroying hoomanity"? you never know these days.

Most significantly, ratchet forces leading to the Left Singularity aka Z/acc.

left singularity is the demise of the West. not of acceleration. if anything, accelerative dynamics demand civilizational breakdown

I don't disagree. But breakdown has to be productive / in the wake of something productive. Not swamp the Process prior to EV. Besides, West may well infect the East, neutralising its techonomic potential with a lethal dose of equalism.

It won't be "equalism" that does any damage. While it is a 'boogey man" of the right, it is unlikely to do any real damage. Even in its malignant form it is first of all a development of capital itself, melting away the traditional hierarchies of European society.

It is much more likely that damage in the east will be caused by a self-preservation instinct caused by the collapse of their labor market due to automation. China has a billion folks it won't need when automation hits hard. Confucianism will strike to save itself.
