But doesn’t that mean Trump is accelerationist, then? Because he would make it all crash and burn quicker? I think I don’t quite get what accelerationism is, since I thought it wasn’t about the magnitude of destruction, but the speed at which we arrived at it.
They’re all accelerationist, TBF. Not a single one seeks to change the issues inherent in the system, hell, they all make their living off of exacerbating it.
Trump being a perfect example of a vile human being, incredibly alienating to the rest of the western lackeys, and seeming to have a bit more self-preservation and less interest in plunging the world into WW3 goes a long way in being “less accelerationist,” that said (IMO). Not that anyone should support either.

Yeah I think this is the bit I don’t get, because I read that as being “more accelerationist”. I know it’s a lot to ask, but would you mind explaining what you understand accelerationism to be or point me in the direction of some good reading?
