Watching Fishtank over the past 3 years has been the most revealing look into Generation Z, they are all emotionally stunted and immature.
I think the generational divide was clearest in season 4. The only people who talked and could keep a real/normal conversation going were Direc and Freddy, both the oldest fish I believe.
On an unrelated note, I really like the variety of the cast this season. I don't think there's anything wrong with 8/10 fish being fans with the caveat that they need to be different types of fans, if that makes sense.
I think the issue many had with the season 2 fan casting was how samey everyone felt. They were almost all kind of autistic, overly online MDE sycophants.
This season, I think the 8/10 who were aware of the show all stem from different subsets of the fandom. Emma is a red scare pod type of girl, a community with a not insignificant amount of fishtank viewers. Landon and the Twins are clearly the classic low functioning autistic MDE fans. Bezo is probably the closest to how a KF or /tv/ viewer may try to act on the show. JD knows a good bit about the show but I feel like he is more in the reddit normie sphere where he's seen a lot of clips. I'd guess Anisa is similar. Vicky is a sort of Rachel or Sylvia type, big MDE fan who thinks they would walk on and crush it, then has constant meltdowns.
The only one I can't nail down is Muhammad/Bashir. He's pressed production numerous times and instantly tried to fuck with Landon as soon as he came in. Despite being a white Minnesotan man, he is a seemingly devout Muslim and also a japanophile, yet the only contestant he reminds me of in his social dynamics is Simbal. He has the same manipulative and arrogant manner that anyone can see through immediately, and where he would have come from in terms of the Internet I can hardly even guess. I think he reminds me of Simbal because they both at some point clearly tried to "socialmaxx". You can clearly tell when someone isn't just normal and had to learn socializing from some kind of red pill content where everything is a veiled battle for masculine dominance and izzat protection.
