I feel like Accelerationism is something the traditional Marxist left is very content to accept caricatured dismissals of (and that this should be remedied). Not sure if the constant framing of the other side as blithering morons helps the dialogue though...https://twitter.com/realMaxCastle/status/1041967196686221312 …

Replying to @cloutsky
The other side is not blithering morons, however this particular person commits some very basic argumentative errors. There are legit critiques of accelerationism to be made and some are even along similar lines, and any position needs intelligent responses. This ain't that.

I do agree. I think it's just because I'm vaguely acquainted with the author from FB and know that this is one of their first published pieces that I'm inclined to be lenient and a bit defensive. But agree that as an intervention it adds little/nothing.

Don't wander into a debate you aren't prepared for. Do the work. Get away from the cliches. Hit folks hard. That's the method of any true Marxist.
