2/ Like, how many cultural sub-groups could you enumerate given just a few minutes? My guess: a lot. Now, how many of these can you accurately model, mentally. As in, accurately anticipate their needs, beliefs, norms, and how they allocate their attention? My guess: very few.
I think that's what's motivating me interest (well that, and my dissertation model). Like, take it to the individualist limit, everyone is a unique identity. But that's too cognitively expensive for collective action and political evaluation. So, we use identities as clustering.

But, if that's true, given our socialization and habituation, are some exposure patterns more likely to induce animosity than others, kinda like you said about mainstream consumers? As n tends to infinity, no one is close to you anymore...
