  Accelerationism is like being on a plane and wishing it crashes when one of the engine fails.

    I mean, sure but in the context of individual websites I don’t see it being a big deal. There will be replacements, and relatively quickly. Accelerationism applied to major societal structures is a terrible idea though.

    That’s a terrible analogy, implying the wish that everyone on the plane dies if one engine fails.

    It’s like an airline company has been complete shit for decades, wanting to see them fail fast so that a better airline company can take their place.

    Except it’s not like a plane because we can stop using specific websites whenever we like, and build our own websites to whittle away at their hegemony.
