Literally everything people think is cool about Nick Land he stole from PKD. If you haven't read VALIS you are minimum /lit/

The Divine Invasion and The Transmigration of Timothy Archer are both better books than VALIS. VALIS is good but it's a mess and has huge sections that drag on forever.

>think is cool
I'll agree with your post OP, but only because tend to reduce Nick Land to techno-gnosticism. There's way more to Land than "Robot Capital Will Eat Us".
Pic related, a neat essay on the relationship of the inside and outside of the world order, the third world as an intentional ghetto that nationalism excuses away with sovereignty.

Did PKD know PKD was schizo?

Baudrillard also seems to take a lot from PKD. I like PKD because he remained a good christian boy to the end, regardless of all the trouble and disillusion it brought him. Land and Baudrillard's fashionable nihilism can feel like a pose at times.

Nick Land is a nigger who shines the shoes of Burroughs.

“Hi, Philip! It’s me, that weird mystical presence that has guided your literary career! I read most of VALIS and it’s okay, but I’m going to be honest- I need you to do more amphetamines. No, no- you’re in perfect health. Here, take this.”

That's a bit of a stretch.
