The problem with this take is that it assumes the leadership of the Democrats actually give a rats ass about winning elections. The people at the top care about two things: staying on top of the party, and keeping the donations rolling in. When they lose, the message to the left is how dare you, but the message to the normies is, omg the most evil of all evil republicans is in power and democracy is on the line you need to donate now! And they do, and the party bigwigs stay flush with cash. If anything it’s the sort of hyper majority the libs fantasize about that scares them the most because then they’d have no excuses for failing to deliver to those that imagine themselves the base.
Also, accelerationism is a fools gambit, no proletariat gamer moment is going to spring spontaneously into existence if things just get bad enough. Only organization, building alternative power structures, will set the working class up for seizing power.
Yep, the only benefit of the degradation of American hegemony is the harm reduction to the imperial periphery. If conditions actually got bad as to cause some sort of coup in the US, it will almost certainly go to some Pentagon ghouls that can appease the boater kulaks.
