But it will still be a long slog ahead repairing the damage done..it was fueled by this technofascist cult that tried to bamboozle the public with an appearance of technocratic muscle bolstering the fascism.

I don’t think this accelerationist bunk had any there there. It’s complete bullshit. I am reading a book by this scientist Adam Becker called “What is Real?”. But it’s his latest book that I think will interest me even more:

I wouldn’t say I have been depressed, but I have been confused by how the most familiar and least alienating of all things -science and medicine- have had a new-agey, spooky and grotesque flair in the last 15 years but more overtly lately.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

But yeah I think it is finally over or on its way out. Good..I can go and focus on wrapping up a paper I have been working on for longer than I care to remember and refocus on science but without creepy, new agey or other driveling shit.
Yeesh..
Man I hate everything..
The last 15 years are the worst drivel I have ever seen. These technofascists..there really is no there there..
