    If America gets a chance to rebuild it will probably make some changes to be more democratic.

      Well, the good news is regardless of what you thought of accelerationists plans a couple weeks ago…

      We’re all about to find out if they were right or not.

      So we got that going for us.

        Yup. We get to be the data points in an experiment to test a hypothesis that has no historical data to support it and whose majority of subjects have not consented to participate in.

          that has no historical data to support it and whose majority of subjects have not consented to participate in.

          What?

          America is already the result of accelerationism…

          What do you think the Boston Tea party was?

          England seized smuggled tea, it would have put smugglers out of business.

          Smugglers threw legal tea off British ships in response. Now the colonies had to choose expensive legal tea or expensive smuggled tea.

          And that was used as a way to make people made at the King, when if the smugglers hadn’t of destroyed the legal tea, colonist would be paying the same price they always had, except instead of a small group of smugglers, the taxes went to the government that ensured the colonists safety (somewhat).

          Our country is fucking built on accelerationism, there’s tons of historical data from here and all over, like France obviously.

          Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t.
