Eh if it wasn’t astrology it would be something else for that type of person.
I largely agree, and I think it often fills the spiritual hole left by being pushed away from organized religion and is frequently a more positive alternative.
I do worry because to me it seems to be in the same territory as those "ironic" subreddits birthed for the purpose of mocking hatred then turning into fash cesspools within a short timeframe (obviously not trying to equate astrology with hate, just noticing similar patterns of initial irony drawing in true believers who poison the well)
And definitely noticing more dudebro type reactions here that I thought we'd be a little more mature about.

Glad we agree that hating astrology is mostly based in misogyny though, pretty surprised by the knee jerk response on this from other users ngl.
