I think for many Accelerationism is speaking towards the capital transformations of society,
not the decline of empire. Even so, Trump is the accelerationist choice


Emotions aside, is their assessment of events incorrect? Harris is a more sane war hawk, recognizing that doesn’t make you an accelerationist.


OK, but who does it cost more? The person being interviewed is also burning opportunity and time but we assume it’s free because no one is paying them?


Because the common folk is too poor to afford admission.
Pretty sure my kid is going to be a billionaire because I read “Rich Dad”, why do you hate billionaires?


You actually think there’s no accountability in China? My guy, they hold their politicians to a much higher bar then we do.


It must look strange to those who conflate authority with power. A state that has power without authority is a state that is in crisis. Calling a government authoritarian is to say it’s authority comes from it’s exercise of power.


The OSX laptops was for security, you couldn’t connect to their VPN without it. It was also a way to monitor your usage


When I contracted with them we ran our computation loads on a Linux server and deployed our service to an internal Linux server. Only osx I touched was my laptop, and that was a work requirement they insisted on.


Clinton was notorious for polling people and changing positions, but that was not by referendum. Sometimes our pundits play loose with words and pretend polling is a referendum because we don’t actually have referendums. See also “democratizing” when it just means “commodotizing”
Indeed. Democracy does not exclude anarchy and in the case of the UN it’s a voluntary union, each member is free to not participate and ignore the decisions made by rest of the union. People often criticize the UN as having little authority - that’s because it’s anarchistic in nature.
If there is a point to my example it is that society is a patchwork of ideologies, there is no “pure capitalist” society just as there is no “pure anarchistic” society. So to say one ideology does not work as totalitarian society is different then saying it does not work at all.
I mean we have the UN which doesn’t have any one nation in charge. Geopolitics tends to be anarchistic.


Free speech is when AIPAC channels unlimited dark money to influencers to disparage anti-zionist candidates like they did in Kat Abu’s race. Free is quickly becoming worthless.


Yeah, we are about to get served a big slice of humble pie so bring your appetite. The pain we are all experiencing is there to tell us we cannot continue the way we were. We had the option to change in the past but didn’t because it was too hard, now there is no avoiding change.


I don’t know about all of recorded history but if you’re an American or want to counter American myths, check out “A people’s history of the United States”


It’s an analogy that illustrates that you are doing his PR work in order to serve an unrelated cause. Is that clear enough to understand or do you want to send people with butterfly nets after me?
