I don't really care about Disney's business. The Disney adults, as people, are bleak. Take their money, who cares.

> That said, it sounds like you are dismissive of Disney-fanatics when in reality everyone is hypertargeted by their specific subculture. Doesn't matter if your a Tater, a ranked MMO gamer, Boardgame addict, fantasy football aficionado, CrossFit enthusiast, etc.

does everyone has to have a "specific subculture" that they consume? i feel like that way of looking at things is bleak. im a heavy fitness enthusiast and i hardly spend any money besides a basic gym membership and the cost of trail/camp permits

Everyone already does. It's called hobbies. Some people make their hobbies their entire identity, others less so.

Most people don't base their personality on their hobbies

a "specific subculture" really elevates "hobbies" beyond what they are, maybe

hobbies don't have to be about consumption. In your post, it seemed like they did.
