The plan is to dismantle democracy if Trump wins. They're putting up with him to gain full control. We don't get another chance after that.

Hence the 2nd amendment and civil war. Unfortunately, you do get a second chance, but it will be ugly and costly.

That's an incredibly privileged take. Who's to say that you don't end up a victim under the genocide Trump and friends wish to enact upon the American population? Or your friends and family? Coworkers? Peers?

Accelerationism is not the answer. It will not lead to anything except an unstable country filled with strife and infighting, and it certainly won't lead to any sort of social progress. Positive change happens slowly, you cannot force it through violence.
