Chapter 1053: Chapter 116 The Belief in Accelerationism — In the Prime of Youth~

In the fables of Hua Country, ‘South Directed Chariot, Northbound Journey’ is a classic existence.

No matter how hard you head north, you can’t reach the destination located in the south.

It emphasizes that when your choice and direction are wrong, any effort is in vain.

But in actual practice, numerous facts have made philosophers realize the subtlety of accelerationism in ‘South Directed Chariot, Northbound Journey’.

This is where philosophy and thought, the development and changes in ideology come into play, with the classical superstructure no longer matching the modern economic base.

A more arrogant or bold assertion is that all our current thoughts and consciousness will in future eras become ‘laughable delusions of the Stone Age’.

The British right-wing philosopher Nick, who hasn’t retired from the environmental stage, concluded from the postmodern global governance issues of the 21st century that the best way to solve a problem is not to try to solve it but to extremize it, thus causing it to self-destruct!

To explain it more simply, we could use scientific theoretical models to deconstruct this practical method.

That is: view the troublesome issues composed of multiple contradictions as a stable-state complex abstract model, so complex that it is despairing yet reaches a pathetic stability in terms of ‘creating trouble’, making it tricky to resolve.

Unlike common perception of ruling figures, rule-makers and supervisors do not gain legitimacy from solving troubles but by making people believe they can. Therefore, they aren’t inclined to sacrifice their interests to solve troubles.

So, by using the accelerationist method to hit the gas pedal, further extremizing the problem and disrupting its stable state becomes the last thing some conscientious individuals can do.

The costs are low (for themselves), potential returns are acceptable, and most importantly, resistance is minimal.

This is akin to introducing variables into a system, but unlike Cheng’s previous method of introducing variables to solve problems, choosing accelerationism is more a reflection of helplessness.

If there were another way, who would willingly hold their nose and hit the gas?

But such helplessness does not mean negativity—it’s not like everything in the world can be resolved happily while eating hot pot, singing songs, and hugging a girl/beloved boy.

The struggle, in some cases, might be very harsh indeed.

In specific practice, there are two manifestations of new accelerationism: disintegrative acceleration and the principle of extremes leading to opposite acceleration.

The detailed explanation is too complex; everyone can correspondingly understand it as boiling frogs with high heat versus Mr. Xun smashing the house to open a window. (Great Chinese hyperlink, Respect!)

Boiling frogs with high heat—whatever the method, as long as it doesn’t die.

Mr. Xun smashing the house to open a window—initially crazy like heading north, and then rebounding towards the south.

Cheng has chosen the latter. After all, he has no original intent to solve America’s troubles; all his actions aim to elevate himself, thereby gaining stronger power to change some things.

As for cleaning up the mess, that’s America’s issue~

“Chan, I want to see you, can you arrange it as soon as possible?”

“Tomorrow!”

Putting down the phone, Cheng shook his head helplessly.

“Did I guess right?”

Sitting opposite him, Mi’er watched Cheng with interest, very eager to know if she won.

They bet on whether Niusen or Wolf would contact Cheng first.

Cheng chose Wolf, but Mi’er leaned towards Niusen.

These two dogs, although both ‘allies’ of Cheng, act in quite anthropomorphic ways, which Mi’er and Cheng know clearly.

“We both guessed wrong; it was Nanxi, our old sister-in-law, who’s exhausted herself for America, and we still don’t know what she’s dawdling over.”

Cheng complained about the sister-in-law’s procrastination, but she’s been constantly pushing the Great Commander, almost hitting full output recently.

It can only be said that Cheng’s efficient trait as a Hua Country person is still a bit excessive, leading to unrealistic expectations of some collaborators.

“Hmph, this should count as Niusen contacting you, right?”

Mi’er doesn’t care if Cheng’s affairs go smoothly or not—she trusts in Cheng Daqi and firmly stands by Cheng, no matter what he chooses.

Now, she is only concerned about Cheng losing the bet.

“Alright, alright, I’ll fulfill what I promised you, it’s just this house, isn’t it? If Achilles won’t budge, I’ll build you another, but in a different location; I’m buying an island now and I’ll build you a palace on it.”

Oddly enough, Mi’er took a tour in Las Vegas and set her eyes on Achilles’s palace.

How should I put it, the idea is quite bold, making both Achilles and Cheng a bit at a loss whether to cry or laugh.

Sister, you really don’t treat Achilles as an outsider!

“Buying an island? How did you suddenly come up with this?”

“Boys, you know, like building castles on the beach, have some small hobbies; Zuckerberg and Gates also bought islands, why shouldn’t I?”

Cheng Daqi glanced at his phone, answering without turning back.

The American ambassador abroad was assassinated by mercenaries or hitmen, with eleven individuals all killed, an unprecedented event in American history, involving terrifying stories like the Great Commander participating in international child trafficking networks.

The news has already exploded; each FAKENEWS operates at lightning speed, with reporters who were ‘ready in position’ in Nigeria rushing to the scene, delivering the latest meal-time show to Americans.
