Deleuze is not an accelerationist.
Mods please anchor this shit thread.
Accelerationism
All economic systems reach a state of advancement that bring about a new economic system through the change of material conditions.
For example it can be argued that the lack of goal helped bring about capitalism etc.
Therefore capitalism will provide the material conditions to dethrone it.
Trying to react against it has failed in the past and voting for SocDems will only maintain the current order.
Acceleration advocates for not slowing the eventual destruction of capitalism.
So voting Trump will help to end capitalist the fastest
Unions are irrelevant. At one point they fought against capitalism now they just bargain with capitalism for higher wages. They do not help workers or accelerationism.
On an individual level a single person does not matter in the grand scheme of things if thats what your asking
this is just speculating on technology
I'm not saying he was, but some deleuzians are. Although most of them are twitter weirdos, so i'll give you that.
I get that, but in the past union salts and activists were able to make small differences individually that would collectively become strong, do the accelerationists have any similar activities? Or is it really just forces completely beyond human influence?
Yes, you can look into Land's work on the Dark Enlightenment
Essential move away from federalized governments to a hyper capitalist form of government run by a CEO
Stop with this this terrible vaporwave / 80's shit. It's inherently reactionary, we need to come up with our own art.
vaporwave is anti capitalist retard
Doesn't matter if it's anti-capitalist. It's a style that has long since melted into air and been co-opted by the same multinational corporations whose decadence it made fun of (surprise surprise, irony is one of the most easily diluted elements). Besides, aestheticization of politics is pretty cringe and bluepilled and the accelerated degradation (or undressing?) of grassroots art movements into commercialized kitsch means we probably shouldn't uphold the latter as revolutionary or otherwise progressive and critical. Especially when it doesn't actually have any positive, constructive elements to it.
You're description of vaporwave makes it sounds prefect for accelerationism though
I'm confused. Some people say Land used to be lefty who knew socialism was inevitable consequence of Capitalism but later became edgy lolbert to delay said transition as long as possible. If I'm reading you correctly he is not actually delaying revolution per se but merely using such dystopian system as praxis. Which was is it? I know I should read him myself but he somehow figured out how to write even more obnoxiously than moldbug and I can't in to /cyb/ lit
If accelerationism is anything more than a meme then it already shed vaporwave a long time ago.
