Not to rehash the points already made about accelerationism. What would an ideal scenario look like for left organizing, given what’s been said? It seems that the best case is a false threat, something that radicalizes liberals to the left while not actually being that detrimental. A political vaccine. One could argue that Trump is that, an incompetent fascist who despite being actually destructive sometimes, mostly does things for show. The net effect being a political awakening for certain liberals who would have never got there under the incremental escalation that Biden maintained.
