  • No. As much as there are cynical takes about accelerationism by us tankies, no.

    Capitalism in a state of crisis cranks up the dial on fascism. Shit is going to get really bad for a whole lot of people who don’t have the power to survive the violence of an unashamedly fascist state.

    People being snatched up and disappeared to other countries, is a bad thing.

    People being unable to get a job or healthcare due to being a member of one minority group or another is a bad thing.

    Destroying the systems that try to keep our food and water safe(ish) to eat and drink is a bad thing.

    Destroying universal vaccination programs and seeing outbreaks of diseases that were considered contained to the point of being erradicated is a bad thing.

    There is not enough of a coherent “left” in the USA to be the vanguard that marshalls the workers you think are going to be comrades against Trump, Fascism, and ultimately Capitalism.
