What happened to scenes like emo, goth, punk, pop-punk, skater?

It seems everyone is cookie cutter as fuck nowadays, merely following every latest trend and listening to all the same shitty music.
>>
Nah they're still around

The scenes are just a lot more mixed up today than they were before.

For example here in germany at gothic meetings you will also seey emo, punk, metal and a lot of otakus

They got replaced by hipsters and tumblerina types.

That's the same way it's always been. Emo/goth was the mainstream back then. They were the cookie cutter teens of their generation.

Shut up and go play your Nintendo 64 and drink your fucking surge you pathetic 26 year old beta male

>>37234318
It has been replaced by geeks, nerds, otaku, weeaboos, etc...
But not the weirdo ones, the normalfags ones.

Emo isn't the same as goth, in fact they're almost polar opposites and neither were ever mainstream.

>>37234356
Close, I'm 24.

>Emo isn't the same as goth, in fact they're almost polar opposites
I wasn't claiming they were the same, the stroke was for succinctness.
>and neither were ever mainstream.
You must not have been paying attention 2002-2007.
>>
>>37234318
they were phased out in favor of tumblrinas, transfaggots, and sjws

And all those faggots weren't? Skaters in particular always stunk of corporate-cool, but all of that shit was composed of obnoxious faggots trying too hard to fit a stereotype.

take off your rose-tinted glasses, kids were still fags back then - just a slightly different flavour of fag

The black hair/ one eye cover was a classic. It did irritate after a while though, since my hair was so greasy.

Fads and memes have a super short shelf life now thanks to the internet. they're being measured in weeks, days and even hours now as opposed to years and decades before they're cast off for the next trendy thing.

Goths and Emo was popular for what? 5 or 6 years in the early 2000s just as the internet was cementing itself into everyday life? These trends spread like wildfire thanks to that is a super short amount of time and people get very tired of these trends much faster because of it.

Those trends got co-opted into the mainstream media, flew over the world in an instant and burned out shortly after as they simeltaniously got exposed to the kinds of people that are more than happy to take the piss out of those people for dressing funny. Only a few true beleiving hardcores still stick to them in an unironic way, as the rest of the crowd grew out of it in some way or just moved on to different interests, even more so when they start hearing about the worst examples of their particular interest (ie, hyper-cringe inducing myspace posts from angsty 2hardcore4u emo kids) and they start to distance themselves bit by bit without even realising they're doing it.

The alt-right became the new counter culture because being non-conforming wasn't special enough anymore.

This.
It is crazy but the current counterculture has similar beliefs to Jack Thompson.

People moving to the right is natural considering what's happening to Western nations, it's just white's looking out for their own interests in a world where their nations are being turned into 3rd world shitholes by high levels of immigration.

Everyone & their mother had a big dumb fringe & liked My Chemical Romance in the 2000s.

These faggots were insufferable at their peak, but scene/emo/goth girls make me hard as a rock. So fucking hot.
>>
The emos these days are all about "muh depression" and listen to things like suicide boys and wear chokers. Quite easy to spot
>>
>>37234318
Why do you need to express yourself goyim? Just stay home

Thank social media for that. Kids nowadays don't have small friend groups, they have to impress the whole school on instagram and get likes.

There's a chasm between those who live for the ideology and those that can afford the associated gear bit don't really follow the idea, more the fashion.
