Accelerationist view has always been that you need a fascist driven collapse to shift the pendulum back to progressive peace.
The US empire shifting to more explicit domination of its colonies instead of wars it cannot win, is provoking the CIA/establishment world order to double down on CIA enemies list, potentially embracing US extortion with massive weapons purchases to fight US enemies on its own. The brainwashing in service of US empire domination is so established that evil and hatred is our new identities, because of our misplaced trust in the CIA owned politicians ruling our colonies.
The reason accelerationism isn't an actual solution is that revolutionary change it might breed/catalyze will be based on reactionary hate more than reason/shared prosperity.
Still, the war on US colonies and Russia was always a deeply anti human US empire move, and it would be surprising that no mental clarity from colonies can arise to free themselves, even if that takes more time than a week. That breaking US empire fascism was so easy without a civil war, is a big win, when time passes for you to understand it.
