>>19215102after emo and hipsters, subcultures ceased to exist because there wasn’t really any active subcultures. I mean variations of hip hop nigger bop were around but that was kinda all.
Then after a decade, it somehow morphed post covid 19 into this weird shit where they rediscover shit and pretend it's brand new.
I have a theory why this is such a big thing. Zoomers were not taught anything growing up. They were shoved in front of technology and told to figure it out. They maybe had a nirvana album or two from their parents, but overall they were never shown or evolved a new culture off what they were shown.
To be fair I don't fault them for not knowing about the past. What I fault them for is not caring or using the technological advancements to find answers and actively be curious. This has lead to Zoomers not learning cursive in school then doing a tiktok "write name without raising the pen from the paper challenge" only to rediscover cursive.
Bro... while everyone was preoccupied with social media we let an entire generation be psychologically experimented on for the sake of tech profits.
