    Deluding themselves about what exactly?

      (this is only directed at the people who seem to have wanted Trump to win to “accelerate” the ushering in of a socialist society):

      Deluding themselves about how often there isn’t a glorious revolution, and ongoing, armed resistance by the oppressed isn’t guaranteed.

      Accelerationists have a weird hard-on for revolution, as if it’s easy-peasy to dismantle and replace all institutions all at once.

      This socialist thinks we ought to fight tooth and nail via disruption/extra legal actions, implied threats of the power of the masses (in the same mould that workers won rights by threat), AND ideally within the system itself.

      Because revolution is a roll of the dice.

      Yes. Make them explain their words. Deluding how, exactly? Deluded that women would fight for their bodily autonomy? That doesn’t seem very delusional to me.

        The percentage of white women voting for Trump says otherwise.

          This may not come as a shock, but not all women are white women. Even they would come around eventually.
