After seeing the success of I'm a Virgo and further back, The Boys on Amazon's streaming service, I've wondered exactly what is going on. Is this recuperation in action?

    Not really. They do something similar with actual historical radicals all the time. To quote Pat the Bunny:

    Malcolm X never lived to see the government fall/ But the state he opposed made him a stamp/ Maybe that's the best you can hope for if you never give up: Your enemies will teach your corpse to dance

    They do the same thing to our ideas via fiction.
