I know accelerationism is wrong, but honestly, I feel like Americans deserve a taste of fascism and imperial misrule. The Democrats are way too competent in their evil—cold, calculated, and insidious. At least with Trump and the Republicans, the evil is blatant, in your face, and easier to hate. I want Trump to gut NATO from within. I want him to tariff the U.S. into the ground. I want him to drive the usbeconomy straight off a cliff. I’m at the point where I want this whole rotten system to collapse under its own internal contradictions. The world would be better off without the U.S. pulling the strings everywhere.

🧚 Your wish is granted!

You can't accelerate beyond terminal velocity and when the wings have already come off, Trump can move the joystick whichever direction he likes and it's largely irrelevant. The economic problems are fundamental and Trump tariffs are meant to SOLVE them but they won't.

American goods are too expensive. How can America service its debt? Other countries aren't going to buy American stuff. In most cases they're already dealing with inflation AND their own currencies are falling.
