e/acc

after the Lex x Beff pod, i am more skeptical of than persuaded by e/acc:

-URL vibes are 1000% hyper masculine, but the IRL vibes are… not, to put it bluntly

-the sense it was started as satire, unexpectedly took off w/o a strong foundation, and now they’ve doubled down due to sunk cost fallacy

any counters? SOS

Don't read the a16 manifesto, or read it and get a bit mad. It starts more or less ok, and then it is just a list of extreme capitalism. They want to write the rules, they want to control the narrative. There's no optimism in there except for them.

And who usually represent this type of thinking? Men.

I'm not skipping this one. I'm thinking carefully about it.

The whole thing is that the a16 manifesto is about techno-optimism. e/acc and them overlap in the idea of not putting any constraints into the technology, so it can evolve, as they assume: technology will always bring good for humans.

how do you think e/acc and the technoptimist movements intersect, overlap, diverge, etc.?
