Land realizes the contradictions within the system, but his brand of accelerationism isn't concerned with the "moralizing" that comes with left accelerationism. It's a large part of why he's taken up reactionary thought. It's convenient to hide his own brand of cowardice.
The biggest issue with the rationalist crowd is their maddening ability to ignore historical and sociological context. It just leads to a bunch of arm chair theorizing that ends up with a terrible version of some idea that was already fleshed out by some Enlightenment philosopher in the 18th century. This belief that you can just bootstrap your way into examining and fixing/mitigating your own cognitive biases without understanding why the fuck you think the way you do to begin with is just dumb. It almost always leads to some evo pysch bullshit because that's what you've been largely fed within certain education systems
