    Violent resistance is the only option at this point.

    Marc Andreeson isn’t just “some billionaire”. He’s working directly with Thiel, Balaji, Horowitz, Vance, Vought, Yarvin, and many others to bring the collapse of the United States of America, so they can rise as CEO-kings from the ashes in their Network State monarchies. They are extremely dangerous and are committing treasonous actions in their coup attempt that’s taken 10+ years to build. It’s fucking crazy but true, just read the link above, or watch/listen to a It Could Happen Here/Behind The Bastards podcast with the journalist who put this info together.

      To add to this comment, people who believe in this philosophy call themselves accelerationists.

      Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerationism?wprov=sfti1

      Accelerationism is the belief that making existing problems worse is the fastest way to produce a better future.

      Depending on the version, that can mean encouraging economic disruption, institutional collapse, political polarization, or even violence because crisis is viewed as a necessary catalyst.

      In its most extreme form—used by some white supremacist terrorists—violence is intended to accelerate social breakdown and provoke civil conflict. Less violent versions can still justify ignoring short-term human costs on the assumption that technological or historical progress will ultimately outweigh them.

        There’s actually a whole section in the vcinfodocs link above, but their version is called e/acc for “effective accelerationism” as an antithesis of “effective altruism”

    This guy is a white nationalist piece of shit, but I guess that’s why he got the job

    Here’s a critical look at his conversation with Joe Rogan recently (Know Rogan podcast, #0072 - Marc Andreessen Artificial Intelligence and Surveillance).

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
