i dont care if people hate me for saying this or whatever but the ultracurated version of emo/scene revival that current tiktok teens aspire towards goes against the moral fabric of true emo/scene culture of the 00s and probably many of those ultracurated kids would be the types to bully emo kids back in the day. back then the bullying and 'uncoolness' and the embarrassingness was part of it. now the 'coolness' of it and picking&choosing bits of the subculture to elevate as 'high fashion' is at the forefront. and furthermore Wednesday (2022) created a monster by cementing the vibe of curating an (barely) 'alternative' mainstream. ok send post
