That bullshit would only hurt the leftists who survive. Capitalists are only the high priests of capitalism, they are replaceable. The effective ruler is capital itself.
I think it would hurt us in the eyes of civil society, but not in the eyes of the disgruntled and apolitical. Seeing some of these business elite actually be targetted would be unprecedented, it would be immense publicity. I think the mainstream media would froth at the mouth with hatred but the undercurrent everywhere would be one of approval.
I agree that it is the system, not any individuals, but it would be a modicum of justice and would perhaps be inspirational to everyone.
I will admit I have an accelerationist bone in my body and I would say this could probably be called accelerationism.

Accelerationism in such an overwhelmingly rightwing country with no organized left is necessarily to the benefit of fascists.
