    That’s the difference between a democracy and a dictatorship. I feel America is going to be broken up like this.

      If only. My fondest wish is that this kind of brinkmanship further stresses the already weak systems and further drives the most disillusioned to complete despondency and we usher in a complete and total collapse of the country. I’m further hoping that the knock-on effect of having the world’s biggest economy go tits up is enough to strain and stress the other capitalist states and help usher in something new. While the revolution won’t be bloodless or televised, the hope is that when the dust settles we’re finally in a place to deliver on the promise of a better future.

        Accelerationists always make me laugh. They wish for a thing and then when they get it, they whine as if they’re a victim of the very thing they manifested.

        They’re like the nome de plume of fuck around and find out.
