    I think you’re looking at this the wrong way. They’re in a death cult. They want this. They want anyone who is opposed to them to suffer as much as possible even if it means destroying their country in the process. This is what “owning the libs” is about, and it’s all they have left because their pathetic ideology can only make things worse for the working class.

      I don’t think most of the cultists actually want it to crash. Sure, there’s a subset of accellerationists, and for sure they want to teach their enemies a lesson, but I think for the most part, they think that everyone is lying, overreacting, or it’s just temporary and things will be much better afterwards. The problem is, they can’t ever get out of that modality because of the sunk cost. No matter how bad things get.
