Anti-monarch, but anti-accellerationist too. I’m sure you can see what part I was responding to.

Destroying systems isn’t necessarily accelerationist.

“Destroying” has a pretty obvious connotation.

The connotationof fundamental critique? That the system is beyond reform? I’m not sure what you mean, so it can’t be that obvious.

Maybe not a necessity, but it’s there much more often than not.

Everyone talks about destroying the system, but not nearly as much about the systems that are to be built in its place or how to transition between them without mass violence that is wanted and encouraged by accelerationists to take down the system. Sure, community self defence networks help, but you’re still at the mercy of whatever shithead takes the reigns in the inevitable power vacuum. Especially if you can’t make/keep a large enough coalition to keep everything from falling apart into everyone’s personal fiefdom.

How are people supposed to solve these issues if they don’t feel like the current system is beyond reform? Defending the status quo will bring us nowhere.
