 I’m tempted by accelerationism too. But as that necessarily involves bloodshed, I remain grounded in the political process to kill tyranny peacefully. For now. There is always a limit beyond which bloodshed becomes necessity & duty. But we aren’t there yet, imho. 
 I don't think accelerationism has to involve bloodshed.  Covid was accelerationism, unrealized capital gains tax is accelerationism imo.   
 I think the only end game of permitting the march to tyranny is armed revolution. Our country has made this a fairly regular thing. Shots have been fired and lives lost in lawfully fighting federal government overreach.
