Biggest Alternative Hot Take?

xXJustJoking8P 4/4/2022 08:14 pm 9719

I'm about to piss myself off with this but lolz- x_x BEFORE I GO TO BED >:3 What's your biggest alternative hot take? O.o Mine is that is bugs me when people are like "We have to bring the 2000s back! Rawring 20s!" yet at the same time go "Normalize not vibing to the social construct of fetishizing systematic toxic stimulationing gaslighting so you can retrieve non-problematic mental vibes" like if your going to parade "Living in the 2000s" around then drop that 2022 talk. And if you aren't... Still drop it, it's stupid and you just sound like your trying too hard to sound smart, lol
I'll take my unfriendings now- X'DD

@gummilud: yeah i didn't really enjoy using ethnic cultures as an example either because i felt like i was comparing a big umbrella term i disliked to racism but i couldn't think of a better example off the top of my head

@SleepinqZzz: i have to disagree, we really cant compare people's ethic and regional cultures to the clothes/polotical/music culture that would be considered alt. i get what you mean, alt is a really wide umbrella term and doesn't really specify much but i don't think its problematic or offensive to generalize with stuff like that

alternative is a stupid term. you're generalizing many aesthetics and cultures into one term. they're all very different and there's no need for it rrly. i think it's too broad of a term. i dont rrly think you should put them all in one group. it's sort of like saying someone is dressing 'asian' because they're wearing a barong, and then saying it's the same (or basically the same) as someone wearing a dobok. they're very different and labeling them as asian as opposed to filipino and korean is hurtful to both cultures involved. i think that it's the similar with the term alternative. idk idk :')
