it's also dead, or at least on indefinite cryo-freeze. i think i got into a lot of this stuff basically at the worst or the best possible time, depending on your perspective. conversation about NRx stuff was pretty intense in 2015-2016, which was right before Trumpocalypse. even Land thinks it has basically fulfilled its mandate and everybody seems to have more or less gone their separate ways now. weirdly i have now begun to notice /pol/ using acceleration as a kind of euphism for race stuff, which is as stupid now as it was in 2016 and earlier. Land's dictum - optimize for intelligence - holds as well now as then. all of the interesting philosophical questions are those surrounding machines, money and intelligence.

for sure there are other places where genes and IQ and such trickle in but that is pretty much where i get off the train anyways, because my interest in this stuff emerges mostly out of it being a legit plot twist after deconstruction and postmodernity, and because it opened up somewhere betweeen two hundred and four hundred million billion interesting questions about the role of technology in life, where things are trending, and so on. politics is basically where interesting philosophical thought goes to die and it all turns into Monday Night Raw pretty fast.

in terms of what species of /acc has a future now, i'd probably say it's g/acc. Nyx's paper is pretty compelling, and to me the kind of gender theory i can actually get behind. as much as i get trigged with any species of idpol, i feel weirdly fine with that one, if only because it represents to me the handwriting on the wall that accords with all of the other stuff i have read on that subject. and mostly, because it basically collapses the largely chimerical political distinctions that ground so much discourse in ever more zombie-brained fashion. Slime Queen Funky Meltdown seems like a perfectly logical conclusion to me, and is actually quite brilliant. failing this i expect a long, long run of tribal-anarchic meme warfare leading nowhere good. i always did like Goths.

as for me i basically plan on reading sutras daily and brain-wiping myself until i forget all of this ever happened.
