We aren’t accelerationists, nor do we think Trump is a force for good. Trump is a symptom of a broader, systemic problem.

Welcome to Lemmy.ml the idea is that trump accelerates the decline of the west, which is more important than anything else here, including the lives of Palestinians, Iranians, Venezuelans etc.

Nobody believes this. We believe that the DNC is not meaningfully better for Palestinians, Iranians, and Venezuelans, because both parties are imperialist.

The argument is that it’s not as bad when Trump does it because “at least he’s not a hypocrite”.

Nobody has made this point. People have said that liberals hate Trump more because he’s more naked about his bloodthirst, because liberals do the same shit with a polite face to it.

Social issues in the west (lgbtq rights, worker’s rights) have no significance at all here, if anything the worse the proletariat has it in the west, the sooner they will instigate or at least support a revolution that will hail in the era of global communism, that seems to be the thinking here.

While true that worsening conditions does radicalize people, nobody here is advocating for strategically acting to make things worse, ie accelerationism, but instead organizing.

Edit: the other option is that it’s a far right US or Russian psyop because it’s hard to tell the difference but I say that jokingly as a lot of people posting do seem to care. Just not about the west

Communists are neither far-right nor a Russian psyop.
