I HATE posers.

posers actually make me so gosh darn mad. "im goth!!" "im emo!!" "im punk" and they're the most basic person ever and they don't even listen to the music of the subculture theyre claiming to be, or even know the history / politics of it.. b so fr. like why is my style that ive had for literal years and have been BULLIED for since elementary now getting popular, and people who bullied me and still do ARE CLAIMING TO BE APART OF THE SUBCULTURE. it makes me so mad, esp the people who fetishize it.. "i want a emo bf / gf" "i want a goth dommy mommy" or like the ppl who claim to be goth or anythin else n fetishize themselves. b so frr...... like ALL of the subcultures that theyre fetishizing dont even support that typa stuff. im js SO MADD!!!!

Modern social media platforms and the trends that come with have been detrimental for unique subcultures. It's no longer about enjoying the music, dressing however one likes, forming an authentic community; it's the image of personality. I say carry on being yourself, hopefully they'll get bored. Isn't all too difficult distinguishing the imitators from those genuinely interested in something, so gatekeep accordingly I say

eu não faço parte de nenhuma subcultura nem nada assim, mas admiro cada uma. isso realmente é irritante! tipo, você nem gosta disso mano, no máximo tá fazendo isso pra chamar atenção, querer ser diferente ou porque a pessoa que você gosta disse que gosta da subcultura. Mas isso é só questão de tempo até outra tendência vir e eles esquecerem de tudo isso.

I cannot wait for the day it's not cool anymore so they all go away and flock to the newest trend

Subcultures are dead and have been for so long now.

This!!! I hate when people try to say that they can be goth/punk while conservative at the same time, ignoring the whole point of the subcultures. Politics makes so much of punk, it's whole point was to be anti-establishment and so many other things that fight against conservative views and fascism. And goth came from punk/post-punk so same thing applies. Punk and goth are about the music and ideals, not the clothes. It's just a costume whenever someone tries to say they are goth or punk just because they dress like it. Also hate when people buy pre-made crust pants or battle vest/jackets, that goes against the whole point. DIY came from punk, the whole point is to Do It Yourself.

Then someone gives you the "They're new just let them explore!" speech. So annoying and doesn't help at all. I'm pretty sure most of us can tell the difference between a damn poser and a newbie

i dont know much about subculture and i dont go outside, claim myself as something like that. but i do enjoy them, like music or clothing. overall, i just like the cloth because it feels good on me, my fashion choie, or i do love the energy that metal brings, and yes i enjoy black metal as well. lmao, anyway, sometime people just assume me into one thing like: "oh are you punk, emo, etc,..." its annoying and i have to explain to them that it just my fashion choice :v

THIS. I have listened to and enjoyed metal for so many years and I have gotten bullied for listening to it, and now its cool to do so?? it pmo so much, there's so many posers now and it sucks azz. the ones that primarily pmo are the 'punks' and 'goths' that are capitalists. like, WHAT??? or the 'clean punks' & 'clean goths' & whatever else there is. that's literally destroying the point. and don't get me started on the 'goths' that listen to a few the cure songs and already lbel themselves. I also H8 the overused jokes. 'metal is so satanic! *plays vicinity of obscenity - soad*' sybau. soad is barely nu metal, listen to raw black metal and tell me it aint satanic. nontheless, I could continiue for hours on what pmo

As metal enjoyer since childhood, I feel that. Or even just people talking down on other people for liking a genre but they like the most generic genres. (I mean generic can be cool but c'mon now at least give it a try or don't say anything at all?)

This is so real! And they're the typical people who listen to the most popular songs on TikTok. They literally don't investigate the subcultures at all, right? They're so basic and think they're different.
