You forgot to mention both have accelerationists willing to make people's lives worse to hasten the ~~Rapture~~ Revolution.

Comrade, this time it’s really late stage capitalism comrade, trust me comrade. Revolution is imminent, the workers will rise up. / repeat for 150 years.

Accelerationism isn't a policy, it's a coping mechanism.

"Actually, I love that things aren't going my way, because it'll all work out in the end" is what you say when you're down bad with no clear hope of recovery.

And complaining about acceleratism is just scapegoating. You're not in this position because a secret cabal of extremists is sabotaging your milquetoast efforts because they think losing harder is good.

Accelerationism is definitely also a policy.

A lot of these bastards tacitly favored The Idiot during the 2024 election, essentially on the basis that everyone dying horribly would turn out better in the long run.
