With the digital and technological age, people are more inclined to gravitate more towards the music and content they prefer to engage with, rather than what they are supposed to like to based on skin color and racial stereotypes or other types of stereotypes. This has led to the formation of online communities, pockets in the Internet, a characteristic of Web 3.0 and a key component of the Metaverse formation. This is how BTS Armys all over the world move in congruence with each other from a shared love and support for BTS, even though we are all geographically separate.
In the technological era, separations between people are dictated by intellectual tastes, rather than compulsory rigid structures dictating what each group of people should like.
And this can be seen in the existence of Armys worldwide. With the emerging nature of Web 3.0 and Industry 4.0, one must understand that processes of community formation are more data driven/ data oriented, than culture/ stereotype/ oriented.
Here are a few recommendations to navigating this era of the internet
Actually offer something of value
Build a community around that
Grow the community
