''Jiasuzhuyi'' was popularized on the Chinese-language forum Pincong in the late 2010s as a form of resistance to the CCP, and has since spread across Chinese social media platforms. Frequently invoked by Chinese liberals and pan-democrats, ''jiasuzhuyi'' has no fixed definition, but generally follows a certain logic: If the system is beyond saving, then helping it move along, rather than resisting or trying to fix it, will hasten its demise. In other words, things will not get better until they get worse.

jiāsùzhǔyì | 加速主义

The concept that Xi Jinping is hastening the demise of the Chinese Communist Party by doubling down on his authoritarian rule, often referenced by the mock-title Accelerator-in-Chief. In its original sense, accelerationism holds that strengthening the growth of the "techno-capitalist" state, not resistance to it, will bring sweeping social change. While jiasuzhuyi is used satirically, in the West this fringe political theory has become closely tied to white supremacist groups, which hold that violence and discord will topple the current political order and pave the way for their vision of the future.

Jiasuzhuyi was popularized on the Chinese-language forum Pincong in the late 2010s as a form of resistance to the CCP, and has since spread across Chinese social media platforms. Frequently invoked by Chinese liberals and pan-democrats, jiasuzhuyi has no fixed definition, but generally follows a certain logic: If the system is beyond saving, then helping to it progress along its current path, rather than resisting or trying to fix it, will in fact bring on its self-destruction. In short, things have to get worse in order to get better.
