I'm not a firm believer that there is any one lesson we should learn from the Holocaust except for this: it CAN always get worse. You can't bottom out through acceleration. There is no bottom to the horror that can be done if we don't put up every wall to stop it.
Every time a fellow lefty online or in person gets all Itchy for some sort of BIG THING TO KICK IT OFF I tell them that Society doesnt need my help in crumbling It's doing that on its own, but the people left behind need my help to survive it, so chop some wood, cook some food, build community.
If you're going to be an accelerationist, you need to understand that you can't just tweet about it, you're probably going to have to actually use a weapon at some point. And yet nearly 100% of accelerationists I've encountered have soft hands.
Yeah because they understand the actual work that would be needed. Kind of like how many generals hate war but politicians love it. Easy to support something when you don't have to lift a finger
Very little historical precedent for it ever working and you have to have a belief in stageism (also really historically unsupported) bordering on the religious.
