I have twice seen accellerationism on my feed advocated for by ostensible leftists and I feel like it needs saying: Accellerationism is one of the single most evil, cancerous schools of thought to mutate simultaneously out of the extremes of political thought. It is absolutely vile right through.

it's also absurd because the actual accelerationist position is to advance neoliberalism, not fascism. if the idea is to accelerate the development of capitalism, then open borders and free trade is what you want.

The right is armed to the teeth. Accelerationists are not prepared for what they advocate.

But it sounds so cool tho! Magically, all the evils will somehow skip over me, and voila... the ends justify the means! Crap like this makes me believe that the horseshoe theory of politics might be a least a little bit accurate.

Yeah it's wrongly assuming things can't get worse. They can. Much worse.

The argument used on me yesterday was "If we vote for Biden, we'll just be trapped in this endless cycle" Yes, every four years Roe is overturned and SCOTUS rules that it's legal for Republicans to break laws. It's a cycle

"accellerationism" is a nice pose for rich kids/nepo-babies who assume "daddy's money/connections" will protect them from The Event.

If your theory boils down to “everything is terrible so we need to speed up the rate at which shit is collapsing—and encourage that collapse as fast as we can—on the **chance** of something better replacing it,” then I cannot say this emphatically enough: You are a fucking asshole.
