    I’m guessing (hoping) you’re joking here and having a laugh at us all taking you too seriously. But I’ve seen enough of lemmy to doubt that.

    If your accelerationist ideology is unironically promoting nuclear holocaust as its self-evidently ideal endgame, you’re long overdue for your “are we the baddies” moment. Maybe (definitely) stay off social media for a bit as you re-examine how you got here and who’s lied to you along the way.

      Objectively speaking, the US nuking itself would solve a lot of the world’s problems.

      Mostly I’m just being flippant as a way to cope with a very real fear that I am going to die.

        It wouldn’t solve the world’s problems. It would simply make China the preeminent superpower, and cause a horrific environmental disaster.

            You can replace US empire with human civilization and the same would be true. American Exceptionalism is just as bad in a negative way as it is when its positive exceptionalism.
