After seeing all those mask off moments in recent week I sorta start understanding their argument.

Accelerationism as a philosophy is generally pretty bad. Accelerationism is a tool, you must have the ability to seize the moment of acceleration to make change, most accelerationists on the left do not have a real answer for this, they merely believe that once everything is broken they can say "Told you so" and people will listen to them. It's childish.

Right wing accelerationists on the other hand have Peter Theil.
