Watching everything burn isn’t praxis. Their strategy is to let fascists win, so they aren’t even anti-fascist. It’s self-defeating because it helps no one and gets us further from progressive and socialist goals.

I argue with a lot of people arguing for accelerationism so there is my comment and post history. Alternatively you could go through the Political Memes, politics, News, and World News communities. Political Memes would probably be the easiest to find relevant posts and comments.

The search bar is a helpful tool for this. Individual communities can be selected to be searched. Searching on accelerationism is a good place to start. Once you find some users arguing against or for this rhetoric you can review their comment and post history.

I have been participating in and following along with the political discourse on lemmy. Lots of other people have to. I’m not the only one who has noticed the prevalence of accelerationism rhetoric or the only person arguing against accelertionism.

He’ll yea let’s call people unwilling to vote for someone who won’t stop the genocide accelerationists!

People are claiming to be accelerationists, arguing that accelerationism is the answer to fascism, making pro-accelerationism memes. The memes have been in the lemmy.world Political Memes community but the rhetoric can be found in political discussions all over lemmy. I would say it’s commonplace at this point.

Their one issue was pretending to care about the Palestinians. After recent discussions I’ve had today and yesterday, it seems more obvious than ever that accelerationists don’t care about anything but being the most morally pure person in the room.

Have you seriously not seen anything related to that? Having the self-evident political discourse on lemmy pointed out to you is really the straw that broke your back on hating the libs?

it’s an asshole move to call Muslims and immigrants

Are you kidding? It’s mostly white people as far as I can tell. The Palestinians and Muslims I’ve heard from urged people to vote for Harris. Accelerationism seems to require a privileged mindset so a person can turn a blind eye to the actual plight of minorities.

edit: It’s Political Memes community not politics community for the memes.

I’m really surprised of the responses to this comment, I find this to be a common sense

The closer a person and the people they care about get to the chopping block the less common sense it seems.

We’re not dead yet. So we’re still fighting.

Without industrializing the North could have lost the war to the South as they would have been more evenly matched. The North needed to win the political battle, the war, and then after the war, the culture war. They won the first two, but we are still fighting the culture war.

This is what the incoming Trump administration wants to do to the US.

My point is the North employed violence in the form of a successful military campaign to maintain the Union. Where the North failed was following up with a re-education campaign to squash southern propaganda, such as the myth of the Lost Cause.

The Federal Government’s current preferred medium of communication is UAVs. They leave little room for further discussion and semantics.

Also, the North’s industrialization which allowed the North to outman, outgun, and outrailroad the South.

A jaywalker doesn’t petition the town council to cross the street illegally. They jaywalk. A state seceding could involve as little as a governor declaring their state left the Union. At that point the ball would be in the Federal Government’s court to set the record straight, to clarify that the state in fact did not secede.

They can be North Texas, West Texas, Central Texas, East Texas, and South Texas.

As we learned from the American Civil War, the southern states were incapable of seceding. However this isn’t the question at hand. The above user asked this:

What’s the process like?

There is no such process.

States can not secede from the Union. That was Lincoln’s rational for reforming the Union. Since states didn’t have the right to leave, they had never left to begin with.

And before anyone brings it up, Texas cannot secede.

Unlike Biden, Harris was not a life long Zionist.

When Joe Biden met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his war cabinet during his visit to Israel, the U.S. president assured them: “I don’t believe you have to be a Jew to be a Zionist, and I am a Zionist.”

She even chose Tim Walz over Josh Shapiro, another Zionist.

For years, he has been a steadfast supporter of the Jewish state.

That is the publicly stated plan of this most recent Trump administration.

Biden wasn’t running for president. Harris was and as VP she doesn’t have the power to change the US’ relationship with anyone.

It wasn’t useful for Harris to call it a genocide, because it would have hurt her chances of getting elected. Even Bernie refers to it as a war, probably so he doesn’t get censored by the Senate.

Harris called for a ceasefire multiple times. Here’s a comment that said it best.

https://lemmy.world/comment/13069715

She’s taken a stance, multiple times. The left doesn’t want to hear it.

Despite your argument’s attempt to conflate the two, it was evident from examining the evidence that Harris wanted a ceasefire and would be better than Trump on this issue. To end the genocide we need a president who wants it to end before all the Palestinians are dead.

Harris promised to do everything in her power to end the war in Gaza.

“This year has been difficult, given the scale of death and destruction in Gaza and given the civilian casualties and displacement in Lebanon, it is devastating. And as president, I will do everything in my power to end the war in Gaza, to bring home the hostages, end the suffering in Gaza, ensure Israel is secure, and ensure the Palestinian people can realise their right to dignity, freedom, security and self-determination,” Harris said to applause during a rally in East Lansing city of Michigan, home to 200,000 Arab Americans.

Trump wants Israel to finish the job.

Yet Trump has repeatedly urged to Israel “finish the job” and destroy Hamas — but hasn’t said how.

Harris was running for president, not Biden. All the information we had suggested that Harris’ presidency would be vastly different than Trump’s second term.

I read your comments and watched the video. This isn’t my first time watching this video.

I’m trying to call attention to these useless attacks that disregard Palestinians.

The attacks, your argument refers to, are against accelerationism. Not everyone is going to use that term, but it’s clear based on the statement that is what they are referring to. Gaza was the single issue accelerationists focused on. The accelerationists and this meme are disregarding the Palestinians.

The commenter’s message and the video’s message are the same. We need to leverage power to help minorities. Arguing against that message is more accelerationism.
