The sentence is poorly constructed and not natural, so it's not entirely clear what the missing object is, though it may be possible to interpret is as "their demands", or even something else mentioned earlier in the discourse. Where did you find it?

0fire1 and they're pressing their demands on me to accept on and on
I'm a bit confused with the verb "to accept" in that clause. Is it a transitive or intransitive one?
Does the non-finite me to accept in that clause mean I (have to) accept or I (have to) accept them?
