"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

How to avoid falling into accelerationism (lemmygrad.ml)

The collapse of the American empire would benefit almost every other country. I am starting to feel that since I live in America I should want to accelerate the collapse (or make sure one happens if things start to go back to business as usual). Can someone tell me why this is a bad idea so that I don't make a mistake here.

I will add one caveat to this which is that you will frequently see the term "accelerationism" used incorrectly by disingenuous liberals in an attempt to intimidate or shame communists and other leftists out of sticking by our principles. According to these people the definition of accelerationism is "when you don't vote for or support Democrats". That is of course ridiculous and people who say such things should be ridiculed.
