Also I think this definition of Acceleration just came from Zizek saying he would vote for trump to shake things up.

Normal left acceleration seems to be mostly about thinking the technological or social changes under capitalism have been good and should continue at faster rate after capitalism. The Accelerate Manifesto’s action points are basically make left think tanks, reform media to be under more popular control, and organize the working class.

Right wingers use the term to just mean doing terrorism.

So I don’t know what pulling yourself down onto the shaft means. Voting R instead of D?
