> Accelerationism is interesting to me insofar as it is transparent about the fact that technology is an a-human (not in-human) force. I think that's a really good, pithy way of phrasing it. > this kind of thinking ends up getting wrapped up in NRx and inevitably, the alt-right. I would say that accelerationists are very closely aligned with NRx, and only tactically allied with the alt-right. I would say only tactically aligned with the alt-right because they view the alt-right as "identity politics for white people", which is fine insofar as it restricts immigration (because most of the immigrants coming to the US come from cultures that do not value personal liberty as highly as Anglosphere culture does; and do not have mean IQs as high as US whites); but the NRx and accelerationist ideal is to take all (and only) the smart people regardless of race and build a techcomm utopia. NRx / acclerationist immigration policy would probably require scoring at least 130 on an IQ test. |
