"Right-wing anarchists" makes me wanna puke. I think libertarian freestaters is probably a more accurate name.

Anarcho-capitalists have been around for a long time. I think they usually call themselves libertarian.

I get the hypocrisy, but they don't.

Not relative to anarchism. "Anarcho-capitalism" is a very recent recuperation/oxymoron of an ideology that has been anti-capitalist from inception. They'll try to recuperate people from the 1800s or whatever but that's just more nonsense.

Hypocrisy, like I said. I know it's an oxymoron, you know it's an oxymoron, but that doesn't stop them from co-opting the term and confusing people.

Maybe "Societal Collapse Accelerationists" would have been more clear. But accelerationist is the key word here.

I wanted to make it clear I was not talking about Marxist Accelerationism (the OG)

Fascist is the word that you're looking for.

Not just techno fascists. There's a lot of these people who watched way too much Mad Max and think that when society collapses, they'll get to be Immortan Joe. They fantasize about being warlords with their own little fiefdom.
