Maybe it's also just absurdism that found a market fit. When someone identifies as part of, quote "Based Retard Gang", they're not necessarily making some grandiose statement. Many of them are probably laughing at the juxtaposition of the title and try it on as a form of self-deprecation. Plus, the author doesn't really identify why the accelerationist perspective is correct. I consider myself pretty liberal, but none of the liberal appeals presented by the BRG or Milady communities make sense. I would characterize both mindsets as overly idealistic and focused on online community that isn't worth the hard drive it's stored on. Then they shoehorn in NFTs so somebody is making money off this delirium. Reading this, I'm reminded of Carl Jung's theory of the persona and the shadow. The individual person is driven by complex motivations that are in some way reciprocal to their desires. It makes perfect sense that people are driven into the fringes of cuteness to express themselves, and similarly that people would denigrate themselves with BRG for the sake of it. The cuteness and accelerationist aspects feel completely isolated, perhaps only connected by the relatability of cute art and anomie.
