I’m having fun with this. We’re capable of more than any monkeys ever have been. Let’s get weird. “we are not fixing lead pipes but by mandate all municipal drinking water has a minimum Ayahuasca requirement.”
I think I’ve honestly struck upon something. There’s something interesting in the distance between ideas. By connecting disparate ideologies, you’re bound to generate policy that would even make Lyndon LaRouche gasp.
Do you ever think about how in ancient Greece, voting used to be a religious act? They actually believed that the election was a way of finding out which candidate had the divine right to rule. The idea that rule of law should even be the predominant consideration of a democracy existed by then, but it was by no means the consensus.
The only constant in human history is how poorly we understand the consequences of our actions. Don’t you find?
I think like a lot of things, they got it mostly but not totally right. I think a complex society that doesn’t look our for it’s individuals is doomed to collapse. It’s the reason I’m a libertarian “with a little l”. We need to what we can, but we also have a terrible track record.
Maybe to much for a meme post, and again I don’t actually think we’re at the point of accelerationist stuff. Just… You know… Fucking feed people. We’ll sort the rest out together. But it does truly need to be together. Not “basket of deplorables”, not “build the wall”.
We know so, so much. We could glass the entire damn planet. It’s all so fragile and we also know that. But here we are with the ratcheting up the keys to said glassing around what two or more consenting adults decide to do with their time?
Centrism? No thanks, I prefer Circumferentialism.

“we’ve doubled farm subsides but they’re only availble to those growing CRISPR modified corn that produces TDAP vaccines and premium PCP”
Finally an exciting dystopia!

If we’re getting accelerationist let’s do it for real. Buckle up kids.

… At least Greece could claim ignorance.
