Most new words start in socially isolated communities and radiate outward as those outside the community are exposed. Generally this also causes a loss of original context that can lead to a drift in or loss of meaning from the original use in its origin community.

Both based and maxxing come from the alt-right / incel community originally, I believe.

Linguistics Nerd on YouTube has good videos on the origin of many modern slang words.
