Accelerationism refers to the idea of intentionally making capitalism the worst version of itself so that people have to revolt. It doesn't work; it makes everything worse without accomplishing the end goal. Generally, the people making these arguments aren't coming right out and saying they're accelerationists, but they get there indirectly.

People won't bring the revolution just because things are bad. You need class consciousness first.
