The man's a visionary. I think he will be held at the same level as Karl Marx at some point in the near future. He is decades ahead of his time.

>The Universe is a false simulation in the Mind of God with 12 dimensions.
>Demons from the hell-dimension are teaching Sillicon Valley billionaires to build a future-predicting, psychic AI which will abolish humanity's free will

Obviously there were more, but these are the most important IMO

Roko's Basilisk. Simply through the act of foreseeing the inevitable cataclysm he has been converted into an agent in service of it.

Except Land isn't an opportunistic piece of shit who accused people of saying things they didn't and lied through his teeth for political purposes.

It's good but Jones takes the "hivemind AI" far too literally, Land doesn't really make that claim. When Jones starts talking about adding stimuli to bring the future into being, though– That is Land's thought through and through.

this is Alex Jones rambling not Nick Land. The Jones meme is awesome but it's not accelerationism. cyberpunk aesthetic != accelerationism

Roko's Basilisk is a useful thought experiment for all this stuff but it's not really what Land is talking about, the whole notion of retroactive punishment is something which is totally unneeded in Land's theory

No, you really need schizophrenia to understand him. In my opinion, anyone who says they comprehended everything in fanged noumena without trouble is a posturing payed. Here’s what you need to know: he’s an accelerationist.

What can a brainlet read to have a grasp at what Nick Land is trying to convey with his work ? I don't care if his views are right or wrong, they just look really entertaining
