    The US just elected a fascist dictator. Millions of people are now at risk of being deported and millions could be killed by fascist policies. Your argument is unsuccessfully minimizing how badly this election has fucked us. The people arguing against voting Democrat are the accelerationists arguing for a strategy to make society collapse.

    Why are you lying about the accelerationists that are supposedly everywhere?

    I recommend paying attention. The results of this election could impact us for decades to come and may lead us to some of the worst outcomes of climate change. Accelerationists have fundamentally misunderstood the lessons of history and have demonstrated they do not care about anyone but themselves. Things get better when we learn from our mistakes not when we repeat them. Watching things burn is useless. We have to do the work to make things better. edit: typo

      You’re very blatantly just calling people who voted in ways you disagree with accelerationists. You’re intentionally misrepresenting them to portray them as evil because if they don’t Vote Blue No Matter Who they must be evil and want the world to end. Please get your head out of your ass <3

        Your argument is what is known as a straw man. No where in my argument do I claim accelerationists are evil. My argument is that accelerationism as a strategy is useless.

        Your argument isn’t based on the discussions on Lemmy or anything in the argument you are responding to. If you aren’t going to engage with either of those then there is little point of continuing this discussion.

          Every conservative accusation is a confession. This applies to liberals too apparently. How in the heck are you gonna say I’m strawmanning you while literally calling people accelerationists when they don’t claim to be xD fuck off l*beral, from the river to the sea 🇵🇸

            From the river to the sea. I’m a social democrat.

            If you actually cared, accelerationism would bother you because they left the Palestinians out to dry. Trump being president may have killed Palestinian statehood. Israel is talking about annexing the West Bank. These election results have undoubtedly extended the genocide in Gaza for at least the next four years, assuming anyone lives that long. Israel wants to build a greater Israel out of Lebanon too and Trump is going to let them. Accelerationism is useless.

            🇵🇸

              Keep referring to Muslims and immigrants who want a president that won’t kill them as accelerationists, surely this time shaming people will get them on your side
