(this is a sarcastic post meant to highlight the absurdity of some of the “greater good” rhetoric we’ve been hearing, especially around leaving vulnerable populations like disabled people behind in case of revolution, basically accelerationism)

I know that you're really concerned about being stabbed with knives. But you just need to accept the Hard Truth that you not being stabbed with knives is losing political issue! Really, that's why we're losing elections. You can't have everything that you want. And you need to see where the other side is coming from...

vs

I know that you're really concerned about being stabbed with knives. One of these candidates is implicitly okay with you being stabbed with knives, and the other wants to personally stab you with even more knives. I recognize the injustice in this and will therefore vote for neither of them! (the worse one won and now you're being stabbed with even more knives)

Who will win? (spoiler: I don't know but certainly not you because you're too busy being stabbed with knives)

Good good, let the hate flow through you. Purity is what matters, not affecting change. Go now, inquisitor.

it feels hypocritical to post about infighting while inciting arguments and heated discussion, and not offer any solutions.

Tankies justifying slave labor "only 10% of industries were built with gulag forces" calling socialist countries that succeeded with market socialism revisionist "Tito is a revisionist prick delaying global Revolution" and then not even batting an eye to the worse state capitalism that USSR and china engaged in "it improved the lives of people! No, it wasn't authoritarian! And yes, the party members we sent to gulags and killed were DEFINITELY anti revolutionists and not trying to stop the state capitalism that was forming."

The entire concept of “accelerationism” is complete nonsense. First of all, none of the people advocating for it are willing to say, “Yes, I am perfectly happy to become homeless and starve to death in order to foment the revolution.”

And what are people gonna do? Take up arms? We’re just gonna wait until everyone is starving but armed with an AR-15 and then hope the state doesn’t crush us with nukes? It’s highly privileged absurdist faux revolutionary nonsense.
