    At least in Christian theology, that’s not heaven. Heaven will generally be like earth but without the bad stuff.

            Accelerationism is a range of ideologies that call for the use of processes such as capitalism and technological change in order to create radical social transformations.

            Right-wing extremists such as neo-fascists, neo-Nazis, white nationalists and white supremacists have used the term to refer to an acceleration of racial conflict through assassinations, murders and terrorist attacks as a means to violently achieve a white ethnostate.

            What has this got to do with Christian Theology 😭

              In the US quite a bit these days. The far right supply-side Jesus accelerationists are gunning for total collapse of the system, and if that’s their religious armageddon, they’re fine with that.

              ’ Accelerationism’ refers to the spreading far-right and evangelical belief that we’re in or nearing the ‘end times,’ and that our society is SO corrupt and immoral that it all needs to be torn down and totally replaced ASAP.

              That’s obviously a certain segment’s take on accelerationism, but nonetheless it exists.

                That’s Jesus’ job. I think a lot of false theology is being pushed these days (Zionism is another prime example, as well as the literal rapture theology).

                The white supremacists will be shocked if Jesus came today. There will be more Africans and Asians meeting Him in the sky than White people- and the supremacists will be watching it from the ground!
