To be fair, if they’re deporting US citizens, they can’t deport them back into the US can they? Have some sense /s

This has to be one of the most photographed people on the planet, but i actually wonder if there’s any footage of him running? Like even a light jog? We’ve got footage of Bernie in a light jog, can you picture Trump jogging in your mind? If you asked an AI to show you, would it fail because no reference footage exists?

I can understand why you wouldn’t want to draw this, it’s a very room temperature 20th century take; but that doesn’t make it okay to use genAI for it, that makes it worse. Now it’s also cheap tacky and supports garbage companies.

Yes, the worst thing about this is that it’s a shit idea, it doesn’t refer to anything specific and there’s something annoying about the binary format itself; but it’s made way worse, not better, by also using technology developed for profit, through theft, by sillicon valley tech firms, at the cost of an enormous waste of resources, for no purpose other than shareholder value.

I thought the same. It seems clear that the Supreme Court intended that ruling for use by their political side, if a Democrat tries to use it that’s the instant they’ll overturn it.

Which would be one way to get rid of it i suppose

Yeah. Israel gets to colonize Gaza, Putin gets Ukraine, and he doesn’t have to go to war with the USA because there’s a known russian asset as president.

I agree that Trump will end a couple of wars by making sure that the bad guys win them. Just surrender human rights and dignity, let white supremacist dictators take over, let a couple genocides happen, war prevented, great success.

Oh, and meanwhile poor people and LGBT are persecuted in America. Doesn’t matter, war prevented.

The stereotypical image of a Trump voter is an overconfident bully, but let this be proof that you can also vote Trump out of complete cowardice. I, recluse nerd, cannot comprehend being so pusillanimous that you put a dictator in power just because you’re scared.

I agree. Those who care about Palestine should vote for Kamala because Trump is fully pro-genocide; but implying that Kamala has a valid plan, or even an existing plan, to help Palestinians, is untrue. She’s going to do nothing or as little as possible.

The choice is between evil and more of the same, it’s not between good and evil.

These days, everything is kind of a thing. You can find people cosplaying 1920’s jazz bands.

Pre-christian pagan cultures (Celts, Goths etc), but neo-nazis are also fans of those so you get to share with them.

Funny and horrifying.

But that’s just the thing, all the best food in the UK comes from India, France, or Italy.

Yes.

Maybe i should rewrite the above, i meant it as a self-critical observation of why i give into a lazy and narrow-minded worldview. I thought it was clear everything i wrote is the opposite of an endorsement

Honestly, the appeal of accelerationism to me is that it pretty much just requires me to give up.

I don’t think i’m the only one with a looming anxiety that capitalists are too entrenched to be defeated, that i can’t stop the ongoing collapse of society; well if i believe in accelerationism, then i don’t have to, the collapse becomes desireable if i can convince myself that a better world will emerge on the other side. It’s faster and easier to let society destroy itself than it is to built.

While my privilege is undeniable, subjectively, my emotional experience of accelerationism is one of giving up and relaxing. Which, you know, would feel nice sometimes.

So i know at least one source of accelerationist sentiment is rooted in fatigue and impatience, i know that because it’s the one i experience. The answer is an ongoing realization that progress is incremental.
