    Dumbass accelerationists are probably responsible for this mess.

        For staying out of it and trying to convince liberals to stay out of it, so that the motivated fascists outvote the staying-at-home liberals.

        That’s the whole goal of accelerationism; it’s not an accident.

          Ah, yes, those dozen or so accelerationists, not the systemic problems plaguing America for decades, the weak and/or complicit ruling class or the useful idiots defending all of the above, are the cause of this totally not inevitable collapse of the American status quo. Go on, I’m listening.

      Late-stage imperialism is what’s responsible. The Empire is dying, but capitalism and imperialism aren’t sustainable in the long run. “Accelerationists” are extremely fringe and have no real impact.

      Most of these “accelerationist” probably aren’t living in US, anglosphere, or EU, and live in 3rd world nation. So they couldn’t care less about the collapse of the US and whoever are the world hegemon is. Since it probably won’t have any effect their (already hard) life, 'cept economy ofc (dollar being fucked means everybody gonna get fucked).

      Literally. The rich will cut off their own nose just to short their face.
