A young video games and japanese culture enthusiast/shut-in unexpectedly inherits a great deal of wealth.

After realizing that this will forever change his life, he assembles a uh... rag-tag team of misfits, weaboos, furries, and whatever other deprived internet subculture enthusiasts he can find. A small group of journalists and drug dealers can always be found in tow as well.

The group plots a course of cringe-inducing destruction, travelling across the US, attending conventions and holding orgies, until they reach LA, where they hop on a plane to Japan. After an acid-soaked, barely-remembered weekend, our protagonist finds himself walking the streets alone.

He looks into a shop window and sees that the people consuming manga and anime are really just people. Japan isn't the promised land. He unsheathes his katana and throws it into a public fountain, then falls into despair.

The problem is that these people hear about "privilege theory" (or more widely, the postmodern, multicultural new left mindset) from tumblr or from an Intro to Anthropology teacher. They don't realize they're actually buying into an entire philosophy, because most of these people have never read philosophy. So they have no clue about the underlying assumptions that their worldview is based off. And what makes it worse is that their mindset actually restricts them from ever breaking this barrier because they've learned that reading "dead white men" is a bad thing.

It's like an accidental cult.
