I think you are onto something here. So much of the class turbulence we're experiencing today doesn't get acknowledged at all in the corporate media or broader pop culture (Trump briefly threw a monkey-wrench into this silence, thus the infinite screeching from PMCs), thus the byproducts of this turbulence find a release in these various mutated forms.

Something fascinating that just came to mind: I was thinking about the founding story of our old Puritan culture that hails from East Anglia a la Albion's Seed, and the eugenic process that brought this group together into its recognizable form. It seems quite similar to how European Jews got their collective character as a result of centuries of selective breeding. Our Puritans are the founding stock of Moldbug's "Brahmins" (our PMCs) and their similarity to AK Jews are not hard to notice. So today these PMC rebel kids don't want to look too hard that the traits of their own class, thus find the easy and obvious scapegoat to externalize their angst onto.
