Accelerationism is a range of ideologies that call for the use of processes such as capitalism and technological change in order to create radical social transformations.
Right-wing extremists such as neo-fascists, neo-Nazis, white nationalists and white supremacists have used the term to refer to an acceleration of racial conflict through assassinations, murders and terrorist attacks as a means to violently achieve a white ethnostate.
In the US quite a bit these days. The far right supply-side Jesus accelerationists are gunning for total collapse of the system, and if that’s their religious armageddon, they’re fine with that.
’ Accelerationism’ refers to the spreading far-right and evangelical belief that we’re in or nearing the ‘end times,’ and that our society is SO corrupt and immoral that it all needs to be torn down and totally replaced ASAP.
It always sounded awful. But I don’t even think it’s that, because as far as I’m concerned, if god is anything besides made up, there’s no way it doesn’t just slowly consume souls of the dead.
Easy food, just subsist off the faithful and keep the train going for thousands of years with infighting and a strong drive to proselytize non-believers. Some kind of cosmic horror shit or something, gotta be.
Edit: But to be clear, I’m not trying to imply anyone following this or other religions is wrong or anything, or that I actually believe this (I’m in the “it’s made up” camp), I just think cosmic horror is neat and love overthinking :3
or is it a motivation to make sure you go to hell?
Or is heaven hell?
Sounds like it could be. In drugged out bliss and thrall to a god in its domain. No change, no learning…nothing except stasis until the end of time.
At least in Christian theology, that’s not heaven. Heaven will generally be like earth but without the bad stuff.
Pity they’d rather set this Earth on fire in a rush to get to the next one.
Who are “they”
The accelerationists.
What has this got to do with Christian Theology 😭

That’s obviously a certain segment’s take on accelerationism, but nonetheless it exists.

Why would you need food if you are literaly infinite? Cmon, could even just spawn food.
so you think you can tell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
But if heaven is so bad already I would wonder how more terrible hell would be.
