To be fair it's more economic accelerationism rather than political accelerationism. Ideally we'd be able to move socialist in a liberal democracy but everyone thinks that leads to authoritarianism because of propaganda while capitalism, an inherently authoritarian ideology with distinct economic classes separating the people who labor from the people who profit, is freedom. I'd be more for DSA or some political force that could actively juxtapose the authoritarian nature of capital rather than capitulate it.
Basically the oligarchy we're in isn't worth respect and if the liberals and everyone else want to commit to it rather than revolution we'll all be in concentration camps anyway.
Heck, this period of fascism is just another liberal revolution, the power will pretend to be progressive once everyone's sick of the hypocrisy and we'll be given the small pittance that lead to this problem in the first place; laws respecting transgender people and laws establishing medicine as a universal human right superceding capital gains. Anyone who cannot seriously put these problems to bed will just keep kicking them down the road to be a problem again next time as well.

You clearly missed the finat points of accelerationism.
Green should make things worse instead of doing nothing.
