A opinion article about rising "End Time Fascism" among right-wing politicians and tech businessmen. An end-times-inflected belief that our planet is headed towards a cataclysm and it’s time to make some hard choices about which parts of humanity can be saved.
Solutions among them involve corporate "Freedom Cities", settling seas, space exploration, personal bunkers and "fortress state" but rarely if ever any attemps at creating any credible vision for a hopeful future, as well as, embracing natalism to produce more "western" babies, transhumanism and using combat related AI technologies.
Among them is also ideas of "accelerationism" either technological by speeding technology progress by removing regulations and handrails or political, by destroying a foundations of modern, "weak and flawed" world to build new world fit for their views on its ruins.
