Astrology is actually based on a system. This isn’t based on anything. I can just decide I’m a sigma one day and then I am. There’s actually a method behind astrology, natal charts and horoscopes, even if much of it is bullshit. There’s nothing underlying this.
Look, I'm not sure who created LGBTQ, but I'm trying to figure out how we can get them to LGBTQueue at the polls
but really I honestly don't get this big focus on the difference between generations. Maybe it's because I sort of straddle the line between millennial and gen z and have good friends in both camps, but gen z is not really doing that much that's new. Even gen alpha and their "skibidi toilet" that everyone is suddenly up in arms about is not really that different from the things that came before. Most of the characteristics of these generations that people are focusing have been around for a long, long time. Like three-quarters of their slang (which is really just Black slang) I've been using since at least 2010. You can even hear a good deal of "gen z slang" in old 90s hip-hop. And nearly all of their music and shit I can hear the beginnings of in all the shit that I used to listen to. Anime, fandom, cosplay, none of this stuff is new. Maybe because it's all more mainstream now, I don't know. But people treat gen z as this radical departure from some imagined norm, but if you've been paying attention for the last decade and a half it's not really new.
hey look i hated my parents' generation, i hated my generation, i'm not gonna let up for this new generation just because they're kids
A cosplayer is not celebrating their favorite characters in the same way someone in the distant past would be honoring their heroes, ancestors, gods or the dead. It's a completely different relationship.
I'd assume the argument would be that Aristotle and Plato were trying to illustrate some philosophical argument, myths and religion were on some level about understanding the world around you and why it came to be the way it is. Fandom doesn't really have that same importance. Maybe if you are moved by a character or story and want to use the characters and/or setting to illustrate some deeper point about the human experience, but that doesn't really encapsulate the whole of modern fandom. Cosplaying at an anime convention does not make you Aristotle.
I don't think there's anything wrong with fandom or cosplaying, but I assume this is what the main difference would be.
