can someone tell me why (left wing but also in general) accelarationism is hated (image unrelated) Anonymous 19-06-25 19:52:48 No. 24499
Is it seen as too idealistic? Misguided? Does it come off as playing into capitalist or nihilist logics? Or is it about how some factions (like right-accelerationists) co-opted the term?

>>24501 if by 'shit' you mean, breaking the ruling institutions' toys, that is much better than just jerking off to things getting worse.

Capitalism had two centuries to collapse, it just won't do it on its own.

>>24500 >>24502 Irony is, "accelerationists" don't really want things to change for the better. They wanna benefit from the system without having to square.
Accelerationists are attack dogs for capitalism.
They can be dismissed as lumpenproles.
