    the people who exploit the system’s weaknesses, the motive of card game as the controllers of sybil, the vilains, the main characters … its all so great. but yes it depicts a dystopia which is nearing upon us with military grade ai. which could be happening in some way. i have to set the day to start the rewatch.

    but Nick Land as an influental thinker and a right wing reactionary is very suprising and unexpected to me. I still consider his work with ccru (the writtings 1997-2003) to be interesting and having some kind of forward potential but when i realised this accelerionist story i was shocked. and how far reaching it is.

    most of all its clear that a modern capitalist, a “humble liberal” as for eg. peter thiel describes himself is a being who have denounced any moral attachment to his product like they (palantir, meta, google) the surveilance capitalists overlord kind of do like the corporations would do for sweatshops in asia. a being who exploits by day and meditate in the afternoon not having to do anything with the suffering and the evil they have caused. As Žižek also noted the age of the shameless and most perverted.
