Because, statistically, they are a larger group that could have helped but selfishly decided not to and inaction is a choice that only serves to help the oppressors. Anti-electoralists and other accelerationists have been helping the oppressors win for over half a century, to intentionally cause human suffering to try to ignite a hot class war in the hope of achieving their utopia.

That there is not a shred of historical evidence of accelerationism successfully resulting in societal improvement or that said utopia it would be built upon the blood of the oppressed never seems to matter. That seems rather worse, to me, than those who simply want to oppress - using the suffering of others who did not volunteer as a means to an end.
