Absolutely. They hate technology and modernity and want to live as subsistence farmers, a lifestyle they romanticize endlessly (see the part about "growing your own food," "learning to fix things," etc).
So many people fantasize about moving to a farm in the country. Collapse-advocates want events to force them (and everyone) to make that change. A collapse is ideal because they will be forced to do something they fantasize about and not miss out on anything new that modernity creates (because modernity will be gone).
