"Perfect is, in fact, the enemy of good, and if we can't have perfect then we shouldn't settle for good!"
I do so wish their fucking around would limit the finding out to just them, but alas.
Am I correctly interpreting this to mean you think tankies threw the US presidential election? If so, do you have evidence that this is the case?
I don't think that is what OP is referring to. I interpreted it as the strange measuring stick tankies use to compare the democrats and the republicans. Even accelerationists agree that the Republicans are way worse than the democrats.
100%, republicans are way worse than democrats. To be clear I'm not an accelerationist, I find it repugnant.
Prior to the second election of trump. I would wholeheartedly agree with you.
But as time goes on, it's looking like we don't have a democracy but a fascist dictatorship or oligarchy. In which case accelerationism may actually be the lesser evil.
