One interpretation is that it's saying "we don't care that astrology is fake. It's fun and we like it"

I disagree with this interpretation, though. I think it has to be something else

It seems like that is what the cartoon is trying to convey. What else do you think it is?

When I see people post the meme in response to others, those people don't seem to be into astrology for the pure fun of it. They actually think astrology is real. The author of the meme may or may not think astrology is real, but the people who resonate with the meme don't seem like the type of people who would be willing to concede that astrology is fake.
