Lemmy

Everyone who thinks this seems to forget that they have to live through the collapse of civilization. It’s not gonna be pleasant.
Accelerationists aren’t exactly deep thinkers who understand entropy.
Thanks for speaking on our behalf, but I think most accelerationists know a societal collapse has consequences. We’re just OK with suffering for 50 years so that future generations can prosper
Ahh, the ‘hooray for me and to hell with everyone else!’ mentality. Always the sign of a stable, sensible person.
Why did you think there’s a “hooray for me” here?

Because they think they’ll ’endure the pain’ and then get to ‘build a better system’.

But better odds are they’ll just die early on, and the system they dream of will never come to pass. These guys have gambling brain. ‘We’ll totally win next time! Just got to start over one more time!’

It’s just so stupid.
