Woke chronically online weirdos. These are your transcotherkins, bronies, redditers, incels, etc. They know nothing of life outside of the internet because they barely interact with other people irl. They only care about one thing: revolution. They seek to burn society down to the ground for excluding them. They have no sense of humor and take everything as a personal attack due to their fragile egos and extreme insecurity. They are radicals of all political persuasions, but the one thing they agree on is burning everything down and killing the rich.

Chuds: these are usually apolitical people working dead-end jobs who essentially shun current pop culture and embrace older technology and media. These might have been hipsters back in the day if they had any money. However, this subculture tends to highly value free speech, hates AI and surveillance, and loves edgy offensive humor.

Rhinestone normies: all the people who make listening to pop country their personality and aesthetic. They love Morgan Wallen, light domestic beer/seltzers, trucks, college football, etc. There’s a subset of trads here that idealize a 1950’s style nuclear family and have turned it into an aesthetic. These are your frat/sorority kids these days as they’re basically the only zoomers with the means to party irl. They are vocally right wing and nominally Christian. Like the chuds, they don’t care about offending people.

Booktok: these folks are all about pop music that isn’t country. Their fashion is very influenced by Korea and Japan, but is often fairly modest. They tend to love k-pop, k-dramas, boba tea, and anything Asian that isn’t anime. They embrace modernity but aren’t as hyper political like the rhinestone normies or the chronically online weirdos. They just want to dance and read and see movies but often can’t afford it. They also tend to like renaissance festivals, edm, and dream about living in a cottage (but not in a trad wife way). They don’t like offensive jokes or sex in media, but you better not slut shame a girl’s outfit! Also, don’t ask them what romance novel they’re reading. These women are often porn addicts who read nothing but smut romance novels about women getting captured by and impregnated by monsters. But they are offended when guys like pretty girls in video games.

Performative male: this dude has only one goal: to sleep with as many women as possible. However, he accomplishes this goal by adopting a fake personality that mimics what women like. He carries the coffeshop totebags, reads feminist literature, listens to women indie folk singers, wears earrings, acts like a sensitive man, etc. 10 years ago, he would have been a hipster and 10 years before that, metrosexual. He’s not gay, but he acts like he is because he’s figured out women respond to it. He’s basically the funhouse mirror for booktok, and their natural predator.

Black twitter: it’s exactly what you think and exactly who you think doing exactly what you would expect.

Hustle culture: it’s the companion to black twitter but prioritizes long term gains over living for today. It’s all about self-improvement through rejecting tradition and working endlessly towards making money (by any means) and improving one’s physical appearance. These tend to be narcissistic or deeply insecure people. They don’t actually care about building anything like a true entrepreneur. No, these are just as likely to be get rich quick schemes, scammers, MLMs, and guys who use a playbook to pick up girls. They have no interest in building a foundation for success, family, or religion. They only care about the trappings of success, hoping that if they achieve the signlers of success, that they will earn the social capital and prestige associated with that success.

Tech bros: these are essentially futurist utopians who view AI and technology as keys to a post-scarcity future. They fully embrace technology and surveillance as a way to improve people’s lives. There is nothing they can’t see an app helping. They are chronically online like the woke weirdos, but they’re actually making things and developing technologies. However, they also have no concept of privacy or personal property. They’re actually communists at heart looking to create Star Trek irl. However, they see themselves as the new high priests of science who will lead the chuds and others to paradise. AI is their God, Elon Musk and Steve Jobs their prophets, and they are their missionaries.

Rented a Chevy Trax once. It's small, and I wouldn't want to drive across country in it. But it was a lot better and nicer than it had to be for a commuter.
