>All health, beauty, intelligence, and social grace has been teased from a vast butcher’s yard of unbounded carnage, requiring incalculable eons of massacre to draw forth even the subtlest of advantages. This is not only a matter of the bloody grinding mills of selection, either, but also of the innumerable mutational abominations thrown up by the madness of chance, as it pursues its directionless path to some negligible preservable trait, and then — still further — of the unavowable horrors that ‘fitness’ (or sheer survival) itself predominantly entails. We are a minuscule sample of agonized matter, comprising genetic survival monsters, fished from a cosmic ocean of vile mutants, by a pitiless killing machine of infinite appetite. (This is still, perhaps, to put an irresponsibly positive spin on the story, but it should suffice for our purposes here.)

Amazon is entirely dependent on government funding, foreign production, and produces nothing of its own. It is a large-scale distribution service, and its monopolizing tendencies are as much the equivalent of military service as it is capital/economy. They also employ almost no one for their size, while the government and medical industries employ a much larger number. Even then they are a grey market, inverse to how the Chinese allowed markets into its country the united states allowed foreign production to return in exchange for legal ties to the government and its military agencies.
Retreat, or ossification, of the productive apparatus in the West occurs due to the necessity of other forms of non-economic and non-productive work. Their remains an essential proletariat, but they are relegated to the bare minimum of service, keeping distribution channels open, and maintaining the means of transportation and mobilisation.
Offshoring became total and capital was centralised within a few third-world countries. There's been no real development in the West outside of the military for 30-40 years. Bread and circuses are not capital, and the desperate attempts to adapt them to marxist thought is simply a secondary, reflective form of ossification top keep capital alive as an organisational method - whether positive or negative.
The pandemic is not a cause of the economic crisis, that territory was already laid out over the past 75 years. And what is happening now is precisely due to the weakness and centralisation of capital.

You still haven't learned to read? Land's version of capitalism compared to Marx and Smith. If capital is something more than what they say then you'd have to prove it, otherwise it is just a massive cope.

The point about soibois should be obvious. There is no horrific future machine quality to it. The reality is entirely banal while the ideology must itself become spectacular to maintain its organisation.

Land doesn't present a "superior" version of capitalism, it's the same capitalist processes, he just thinks there is some noumenal form of intelligence underlying them. he uses the example of the Thing, when it infects your dog, it's not that your dog is no longer a dog, it's that you simply had no idea what a dog could really be. and who cares if soiboi programmers aren't edgy enough for you? this is such a meaningless critique. where do I see territorialization? well you laid out pretty clearly how territorialized amazon is, and really capitalism in general. any modern city is a territorialization of capital. facebook is territorialized. youtube is territorialized. walmart is territorialized. silicon valley firms hiring soibois are territorialized

But in reality you're just spamming pseud shit on twitter. There's a bit of a disconnect, and far from meaningless to point this out. Your offense suggests how close it is to the truth.
What do you mean by territorialisation? All you're doing is appropriating what I said and adapting it to your own purposes, as if essence cannot exist. How is a territory set up by the government actually set up by capital?
Do you even know what an essence is? For example, if government is sovereign then all forms of capital will exist within its form but not all forms of government will be subject to the form of capital. If capital is dominant then government will exist within its form while capital is not subject to the government.
If accelerationism had any relevance it would shed light on this matter, but it is just a confused mess that mixes up its terms. A form of relativism that says far less than even marxism.

okay, ignore Land and acceleration for a moment, because this is standard Kantianism. Kant asserts the seperation between phenomena and noumena, that things as they appear and things as they are in-themselves are not equivalent. Before Kant, your dog was just a dog. After Kant, your dog is simply a phenomenological appearance of the dog, and not the thing-in-itself. your dog insofar as you can comprehend it is simply an appearance of something deeper and funddmentally different from your dog as a phenomena. Kant doesn't assert that this means that your dog is no longer a dog, however. Your dog is still your dog, even if you didn't know what underlies it; you had no idea what a dog could be. Kant even calls that which underlies appearances "the thing" (das Ding)

Perhaps you have noticed that there are no longer any cyberneticians, and we are over 100 years past its peak. This itself suggests another relation to technology than what you would insist is merely economic and rational extraction (AND OF COURSE MAYBE SO MUCH MORE, ETERNAL RETURN TO THE NTH DEGREE!!!!).

I'll feel sorry for you.
Socialist realism was a literature/cultural movement in the Soviet Union. For them it is formal, for us real.
The strange relation accfags have to something like capitalist realism - not getting the irony of its cultural appearance, Fisher's work is essentially a work of capitalist realism - suggests their lesser relation to world. A greater collapse and recognition of failure is coming than what the Soviets faced, and the capitalist realists in their final phase are the heralds.

We were supposed to be discussing the noumena and Kant's relation to capital, then you went off about Soviet Realism, now you are making spurious claims about Mark Fisher.

Yes, pessimism as the negation of pessimism. The very form of capital is used to keep up a pessimistic image, indicating that neither are anymore for-themselves.
The average person is much more pessimistic in his silence. And those who need to valorise a culture of pessimism are either lost to the spirit of the age or herald its end. Both seem likely in the case of accelerationists.
If anything it is the loss of the modern essence of technology that creates such a formalism, a reversion into the shell. Technology has lost its mirror qualities and so the pessimism is retained only in fiction - as in photos of abandoned foundries or the accumulated tools which were superior but must be forced through the mind as an obsolete product.

>The process of continuous neutralization of various do-mains of cultural life has reached its end because technology is at hand. Technology is no longer neutral ground in the sense of the process of neutralization; every strong politics will make use of it. For this reason, the present century can only be understood provisionally as the century of technology. How ultimately it should be understood will be revealed only when it is known which type of politics is strong enough to master the new technology and which type of genuine friend-enemy groupings can develop on this new ground.

>Great masses of industrialized peoples today still cling to a torpid religion of technicity because they, like all masses, seek radical results and believe subconsciously that the absolute depoliticization sought after four centuries can be found here and that universal peace begins here. Yet technology can do nothing more than intensify peace or war; it is equally available to both. In this respect, nothing changes by speaking in the name of and employing the magic formula of peace. Today we see through the fog of names and words with which the psycho-technical machinery of mass suggestion works.

The death of capital can be understood through our relation to crisis. In the World War the Soviets dismantled entire cities of production, moved them across the country, and returned to full production in a matter of weeks. We cannot even imagine such effort, and a system has been developed preventing it from ever being possible again. This suggests that the type of man required for total production is lost to us. Perhaps worse, modern man abandoned his project of technology completely. Capital can only remain as fantasy, or a morphological theory of the economy of endless paper.

This would explain the turning of marxists against marxism, its bourgeoisification at the very moment when man had been thoroughly levelled. And Bataille's celebration of capital's abandonment of its own laws: the revolution must be found in the liberal rationalism which built its installments. The Leviathan must decapitate itself as its kings had.

>> No.14818269

>>14818258
The century of capital was one of becoming, the century of technology that of being. The manifold increase in the violent appearance of the friend-enemy distinction indicates this much deeper war than that of class - which can only serve as a unification process or signal of civil war. The entire idea of class is one with the old regime, hence why Marx was only correct where he approached liberal rationalism. His class distinction and historical determinism could never have anticipated something like Romanticism.

The economist realises his end in irrational exuberance. Then he must return to the proletarian revolution he so long neglected. The inescapable confusion and lunacy is simply a descent into realisation - all of the liberal projects have failed. But technology can never be recognised as a failure without ending the age of modernity. The total mobilisation of the economy to maintain the appearance of technological growth appears here. And the figure of technology that upholds its own image as the law of peace is seen in the rebuilding of the World Trade Center: an apparition, a spectre of its own haunting of Europe.

The defeat of the West through its own reluctant and half-measure wars is a fitting justice. Even as migration threatens all that is left we must recognise this truth. Mercenaries are incapable of defending the homeland from kettling by the unarmed. If the West has failed then it is because of its economics, its inability to realise its higher form. The migrant hordes thus appear as an eschatology of the technical laws of peace, and as the triumph of Luddism.

Total pacifism must appear as the victory of the Wild Hunt, unarmed.

After 30 days, the "total isolates", as they were called, were found to be "enormously disturbed". After being isolated for a year, they barely moved, did not explore or play, and were incapable of having sexual relations. When placed with other monkeys for a daily play session, they were badly bullied. Two of them refused to eat and starved themselves to death.
Harlow also wanted to test how isolation would affect parenting skills, but the isolates were unable to mate. Artificial insemination had not then been developed; instead, Harlow devised what he called a "rape rack", to which the female isolates were tied in normal monkey mating posture. He found that, just as they were incapable of having sexual relations, they were also unable to parent their offspring, either abusing or neglecting them. "Not even in our most devious dreams could we have designed a surrogate as evil as these real monkey mothers were", he wrote.[8] Having no social experience themselves, they were incapable of appropriate social interaction. One mother held her baby's face to the floor and chewed off his feet and fingers. Another crushed her baby's head. Most of them simply ignored their offspring.

As a human project, which has slowed down immensely. (At least in Western countries.)

Where there is no growth there is no need for labour intensification. And where society is already modernized there is no need for an increase in technical organisation, it is already complete. As I said above, capital is simply a means in achieving modern organisations, a period of becoming.
Gambling occurs with great wealth, rare items, excess, and trade items which could use revitalization - opposed limits of material, necessities reign in between. The poorest regions do not gamble with chickens, only in the areas where the rooster must develop some animalium triste are organisational exceptions allowed. Where gambling is prevalent, to the point of an industry, one can assume that currency itself needs revitalization. The God of Dice takes over where rational organisation no longer fears its death and must develop a war mentality. Ibi nullus timet mortem sed pro Baccho mittunt sortem. (Here no-one fears death, but they throw the dice in the name of Bacchus.)

Just as cutting the threads of Fate eliminates the power of drink the triumph over wealth necessitates other means of organisation. The ultimate paradox of materialism is that it must eliminate material to uphold its own laws, thus rationalism and technical extraction appear as a form of prohibition: the essence of the material must be hollowed out, refined, and its dangerous quantities disposed of. Morality allows too much light to seep into the tavern, that place where Plato's laws of escape and metaphysical imprisonment were exempt.
The law of necessities ensures that only the most terrible necessity remains. And no political system may overcome this law without first recognising its terrifying hold upon order. It is the vast mill yards which seek to eliminate beauty, and then turn against themselves in failure. For beauty exists without need of energy, and cannot be worn away - as the material over which it reigns bears the mark of time. Desecration becomes law where beauty is seen as the archenemy, and the inability of mills to grind completely necessitates their abandonment. The materialist must turn to other means.

>> No.14824195

>>14824188
Capital, which is rationalist economic abstraction, can only exist where technology remains incomplete, where it sanctions its elemental forces and laws. It must maintain the law of vices over technology's own interests. The technological century signifies capital's complete failure: political forces reemerged and even eliminated the founding laws of modernity. After 1916 capital can only be understood as the return against time, reestablishing the Katechon laws which made it possible as a dominant force. It thus returns to primitive accumulation - a means of bourgeois aesthetics, peace as utopian rationalism where technology had already made it impossible.
Acceleration appears as a means of material to defend the era which it has lost; its own buildings are repeatedly demolished to prevent their abandonment to time. Ruins in a permanent state of transition replace the clocktower. Modernity turns to a war of attrition against the immaterial, especially when its defenses are overrun.

The Noumena is simply the negative formation of the One, paralysis before the alliance of forms - the exile of Dionysian elements from war; the mirror of death which only reflects beauty; architecture with the single purpose of eliminating political forces capable of mastering technology. What can no longer be denied must be rationalised against, and the appearance of movement occurs only in those unwilling to accept that the rows within the stadium are already aligned. The new era appears as a defensive position which cannot be maintained, and those who flee the battlefield ensure two forms of exile. Hence the increased sense of inescapability and woe for those who appear out of time.
Capital is an imperial cult in the society without a state, a means of politics where all difference must subside. Where the state and difference returns one begins to realise that the old economic forms are impossible. Vice may only beget greater vices, and economic pessimism imagines the consumption of immaterial quantities of energy only to the extent that its own laws of beauty and righteousness have been defeated. The elimination of currency as a type of waste indicates the approaching horizon of new values of wealth; price discovery returns to divine law. Currency no longer serves as a measure of events, and those who hold it are met with increasing frequency by figures of the God of Dice, or even Charon. Quamvis bibant mente leta, sic nos rodunt omnes gentes et sic erimus egentes. (However much they cheerfully drink we are the ones whom everyone scolds, and thus we are destitute.)
