What you’re seeing is their fundamental belief that subversion is a virtue.
At their core they resent reality. Reality is harsh and unforgiving and unfair, and they resent having to live by reality’s rules. This is why they love subverting everything so much… it’s a stick in the eye of reality.
They believe reality is a prison created by a false god
To break out requires tearing down reality to uncover the "divine spark" of the true god that underlies the false creation
How do they know? They "feel" like it is.
I think too engaging with stuff like anime on the level where they vividly imagine living in that world warps their minds to an irrecoverable degree. I think if they could hook themselves up to the matrix and just live inside a simulation of a Japanese high school they'd do it in a heartbeat.
