No sense, but I'd like to see the morons who kept bullshitting that there is any kind of sense in not voting. The dumbest fucking people anywhere
It's hard to understate how fucking awful the accelerationism was this last year.
Given the results of the election, it seems that the accelerationists might have had the right idea.
Accelerationists have never been right, their argument is self-defeating.
The heart of the accelerationist argument is equating red and blue, claiming the blues' inability to completely undo the damage of the reds is intentional and makes them no better -- that the purpose of a system is what it does.
But by that logic, the purpose of accelerationism is to enable fascist ascent, and that makes them indistinguishable from fascists.
If the purpose of a thing is what it does, then accelerationism isn't for anything. Recognizing that things will inevitably get worse before they can get better accomplishes nothing.
