It's a great response within some filter bubbles but among the general public there's no shortage of people who think that nothing will change until there are bodies that need to be explained away and that getting it over with sooner rather than later will result in less bad things overall.

I have the same feelings about climate change. Nothing's going to change until shit gets much, much worse. Too bad to ignore.

The big issue with accelerationism like that is in a crisis like climate change by the time the issues are so bad they're non-ignorable resources will be so tied up addressing the symptoms there won't be slack left for addressing the underlying issues.

Also for climate change specifically there's a huge hangover effect from already emitted greenhouse gases and carbon extraction is extremely difficult.

"Bodies that need to be explained away" ? It's a hospital, that's literally one of their core functions. The death certificate reads "cardiac arrest" due to "$underlying_disease", not "nurse responded to call 30 minutes too late" due to "MBAs optimizing away every bit of margin and then some".
