Its kind of astounding that people don't already see secular humanism as a half-assed antidote to the cosmic nihilism that reason provides through science. In my book, you either embrace the nihilism and that human rights are a self-serving illusion, or embrace faith that we more than what we appear. In either case, the human security system Kant gave us does little to stave off the depraved sanctity of existence.

Nicky is the bomb dot com tho

In the hyperstitional model Kaye outlined, fiction is not opposed to the real. Rather, reality is understood to be composed of fictions – consistent semiotic terrains that condition perceptual, affective and behaviorial responses. Kaye considered Burroughs’ work to be ‘exemplary of hyperstitional practice’. Burroughs construed writing – and art in general – not aesthetically, but functionally, – that is to say, magically, with magic defined as the use of signs to produce changes in reality.

funny thing, i thought the same thing about you

Fuck you, /lit/. Ever since my Nazi friend has come across Nick Land, he has gotten less racist and less fascist, but he's also gotten way more annoying. Rambling on for hours and hours about sentient capital and time travelling AI dystopias. He even incorporated Ligotti's pessimism as evolution being another one of these demiurge Lovecraftian creatures.

You turned him schizo. You somehow made him even more annoying to talk to. Fuck you fuck you fuck you.

In this thread post literature that debunks accelerationism, so I can have my retarded friend back.
