Accelerationism As Positive Feedback Loop
- Accelerationism is the orientation toward positive feedback and self-amplifying processes in systems.
- Land frames capital as the fundamental self-amplifying diagram that outflanks any concrete instantiation and monopolizes escape.
Exit From Capital Is Conceptually Incoherent
- Attempts to exit capitalism are conceptually incoherent because capital is itself pure exit and self‑amplification.
- Land supports local experiments but argues globally they will be reabsorbed and regenerate as soon as competence creates surplus.
Actively Suppress Self Reinforcing Processes
- Be paranoid and actively suppress emergent self‑reinforcing processes if you aim to resist capital.
- Mao's metaphor that capital 'springs up like mushrooms' illustrates the need for constant revolutionary vigilance to prevent regeneration.
