 When you realize you’ve already lost everything, accelerationism is the only option: you need everyone to realize they’ve lost everything too.

 Voting for an admitted ‘worse’ demonstrates that “we haven’t lost everything.” It seems like a contradiction.

 Because one devil is worse than another means we haven’t lost everything? 

On a serious note, I’m not voting for accelerationism, but only because Trump is running. But I’m awfully close.

 I guess the “devil” is in the details so to speak. I just wouldn’t be voting for people in a broken system who want to take away my and my kids natural rights/throw us in prison. 

I will vote this election, (1st since Ron Paul) but see more utility in most elections not voting/feeding the system. (As explained above) Agree to disagree though. Just can’t quite wrap my head around your perspective.
