peak word salad is Fanged Noumena
very entertaining word salad though
I tend to read Land less as philosophy and more as a kind of twisted poetry its more fruitful that way

>Justin Murphy: So it sounds like you would basically say that Deleuze and Guattari are not really leftists. They might be writing from a kind of leftist milieu, and they might have some, sort of, leftist connotations, but the core of their project is not leftist because … you think leftism is basically the position of trying to slow down the accelerator?
>Nick Land: Yes, I think that project is anti-leftist but smuggled-in — this insidious thing of subverting the Marxist tradition from inside. I think the Marxist tradition is easy to subvert from inside because the Marxist tradition is based upon an analysis of capitalism that has many very valuable aspects. And as soon as you’re doing that, then you are describing the motor of acceleration, and once you then make the further move that Deleuze and Guattari do — and Marx obviously at times does, too — of actually embracing the kind of propulsion that that motor is is generating, then you’re there. I mean, you’ve already crossed the line.

Every interpretation of Nietszche is highly contestable in a way, if you're not "getting" it right now that might not be a problem, it might come back to you later as you continue to delve into philosophy, and in re reading it you might be more affected by it.

Land is about to go viral.

How do you cope with the existential collective pain induced by the sundering of our modernist narrative foundations? Is the only option to dull myself to the suffering of my peers? Are there any books that can help me channel this pain into something productive? Please no stoic-self-help. My room is perfectly clean.

Is Nick Land the Nietzsche of our times? Why do only we appreciate him, /lit/?
