"The most important thing to a lot of people, is to belong to something that's hip or whatever. To be a part of something that's not society, just a clique"

Ric Ocasek, American musician and songwriter, is explaining in this quote the growing fad among people to choose social teams or societies that are thought about "hip" or fashionable, instead of to feel like component of conventional culture. It appears that lots of individuals prioritize belonging to these teams over locating a location within the larger context of culture. This might talk with the human demand for connection and identification, in addition to a desire for status as well as acceptance among peers. However, it is very important to note that this way of thinking can likewise bring about exemption and the perpetuation of societal divides.
