e/acc

if your techno-optimism needs to be a religion for technology to succeed, your technology isn't good enough.

destroying the skeptics doesn't bring about the future, it just creates enemies out of your future users.

idk, to me it's not a political ideology & not a religion. memes can just be memes. and tbqh, e/acc itself is on par with an NFT community on CT, which is to say that the market will decide if people enter or exit.

if the implication is that this is misguided support for technological adoption...what culture isn't?

I agree, but "e/acc is technology as religion" is a normative interpretation. controversial dual-use technology is mostly adopted by outsiders, with the exception of capital-intensive facilities like nuclear reactors. but in either of these cases, is this materially alienating a market segment that is otherwise eager?

the implication is that technology as a religion rather than tools toward an external goal is a self-sabotage that will alienate the very market you require to succeed.
