You need to define it first, it is not academically very accurately defined term and even the Wikipedia definition is a dumping category of everthing.
If you mean accelerating ANY current insanity (not just technology or capitalism) towards a revolutionary breaking point, then I'll give you an example from history:
Jacobnism
https://www.britannica.com/summary/Jacobin-Club#:~:text=Jacobin%20Club%2C%20or%20Jacobins%2C%20Political,known%20in%20Paris%20as%20Jacobins).
It worked for those who used it as a tool. It was pretty fucked up for everybody else.
Good example. The excesses of the French Revolution resulted in Napoleon. But things didn't go back as they were before, he was in many ways, a product of the Revolution himself.
a) How does one define (affix) acceleration without contradicting it?
b) De-fine aka division (de) end (finis) implies the division of beginning (inception) and end (death) for those in-between (life), hence those in-between need (origin) and want (outcome).
Why gather together that which nature sets apart?
Can form (life) accelerate flow (inception towards death) or only diminish self, hence feeling accelerated in demise?
What if the break implies beginning (inception) of sentence (life), while being moved towards point (death)?
What if a point doesn't break apart but dissolves each partial sentence back into origin?
Jacob/Ya'aqobh - "one that takes by the heel; a supplanter"... https://www.etymonline.com/word/Jacob
Hence not a follower marching towards extremes, but the Achilles' heel most ignore to take advantage of aka the one suggesting the -ism, which others follow towards their demise.
It's few who suggest, which use consenting many as tools, within the box of reason, where many fight each other.
