Spirit Culture

A culture that only exists in the spirit realm or another dimension, but not necessarily in the mortal world.
'Before the Greek gods called themselves Olympians, in ancient Greek times, they called themselves Etherians, because they were so ethereal and descended from the upper-air, Aether. Etherian was a spirit culture, because it didn't exist in the mortal world, but only in the gods' realm.'

Metrics Culture

A subculture gaining traction worldwide, brought about by the ever expanding technologies capable of monitoring performance and bodily functions. Metrics ostensibly meant to help individuals perform better, lose weight, sleep better or just feel better may impart helpful information but also feed a never ending spiral of performance obsession and weight loss fixation. Replacing intuition about one's own body with a set of numbers may move the individual further from reality than closer to it.

Karen Culture

A business culture that was created in response to the numerous "Karen" videos posted online in the early 2020s. Rather than listening to genuine complaints (bad customer service and poor quality of product etc) many employees began assuming that anyone who complained, regardless of the legitimacy of the complaint, was a "Karen" and would not put any effort in fixing the underlying issue, as it was assumed by the employees that it was the customer with the issue rather than the business itself. As a result, the issues within the business were never fixed resulting in a gradual exodus of consumers and, ultimately, the closure of the business.
People use to love that restaurant but the quality of the food and the customer service got so bad that it just wasn't the same. There were a ton of negative reviews of Google about these issues but there never seemed to be any effort to acknowledge or fix them. It was a victim of Karen Culture.

Culture Merger

Is when something on the internet leads to a new subculture being formed merging two.
It is the juxtaposition the internet has given us all. With the accessibility of every culture being publicly traded on the internet. These cultures are merging and forming entirely new cultures as one. Things that were once worse enemies before the internet are merging to become one. Namely Emo Rap and a slew of others.

Genre bending like Suicide Year and Waka Flockas gritty lyrics to a melodic not sinister sounding song. This dates further back to CrunkCore, Ninjasonik "Tight Pants Wearing Ass Ni**a", and The Hood Internet. Lil B was a popular proto-pioneer using VG samples and so was SGP in introducing hip hop to goth. It can be seen on all social media. Hipster cultures parodying and willingness to crossover became pop culture through the internet. Kanye West, Dipset, and Pharrell Williams were proto internet pioneers merging rock or in Yes and Pharrells case electronica and rock n roll/eurodesigner styles.

For contrast in the 80s like in the Compton movie Tears For Fears was frowned on by Ice Cube on the bus. In this digital age modern equivalents work together Ariana and 2 Chainz." Slang words like no cap is used universally and black twitter is not exclusive. The internet culture merger has shown the World really is a Wide Web and everything is connected. The internet has and will continue to introduce us to many sub merging of cultures and people of different backgrounds.
Lil peep is a culture merger mixing emo 2000s "sadness", "suicide", and "heartbreak" with typical rap motifs about "ice", "hoes", "money", and etc. Based on Soundcloud and internet popularity it is a internet culture merger. Propogated on Tumblr.

Ariana Grande a pop singer shares hip hop motifs like "Heaven is the same price as Red Bottoms." Name dropping shows the culture merger.
