This is almost certainly a campaign to defend Xi Jinping. In Chinese, 'Accelerator in Chief' (总加速师) has been a common nickname to mock Xi and his harmful policies. Critics have also often commented 'accelerate' (加速) on posts about Xi or the CCP taking measures they perceive to be negative for China and hastening the demise of the CCP if not the PRC itself. Whoever is running the campaign probably isn't aware that the English translation of these terms are almost never used to criticise Xi, which is why it seems rather bizarre.
