Theres no such thing as subculture anymore because we dont have any real culture. What do these retards produce other than tiktoks? The original goth scene produced music, film, clothing styles, etc. But everything now is just a weak imitation by a generation raised on media consumption only. There are only slightly varied shades of the jewish monocult, and then racist nationalists who are essentially doing the same thing of imitating but at least we have something real at the base and a higher ideal above us.

99% of goth girls today arent goth but following a trend created by thots who use the goth look to draw in simps. Goth culture is basically dead, it was stomped on by the emo/scene thing in the 2005-2015 and hasn't reall recovered. Goths are generally kids with bad homes who drifted into a sub culture that surrounds them with loud music so they cant hear their mopey hearts. The dom-mommy thing is basically a defense mechanism to keep people away, today its popular because zoomer want to be called a fag while their dom-mommy pegs them
>>

For me, it was the poor trailer trash goth/emo chick's. The ones that smelled like ash trays and had true childhood trauma making them real easy to get into bed.
Unfortunately the goth/emo mostly faded away, but by love for trashy women will burn brightly forever

Goths are from a time when black referred to night and shadow and not a race of people. In that sense Goths were black people.
Blacks morphed from African Americans into black because they saw black was popular.
It was a time of sitting in graveyards telling ghost stories, they weren't nerdy enough to be geeks but they didn't want to be jocks. A lot of them were gamers, girl Goths unfortunately smoked a lot and it was gross.
What you wanted was that straight edge Christian girl that leaned into goth and made it a dark religious thing but most Goths would eventually either become shitposters or uppity karens.
>>
>>24600972
It was basically a funeral costume party for outcasts. At least in the 90's. The Goths of the late Roman and post Roman era were warriors and would have more in common with modern soldiers than spooky kids who like 80's rock.

Subcultures were a way to specialize by decreasing your sexual market competition and increasing your sexual market value. If you were a 5/10 overall you could pick a niche market to provide your product to and increase to an 8/10. It’s the same reason that a single balding 35 year old man travels to SEA.

That's not a goth but, it's more a kind of vibe you appreciate.

Strikingly accurate but a bit pessimistic. It's actually something of a white enclave culture, but there's a lot of scene politics.
>>24601031
The total opposite is true. It's one of the most racially exclusive scenes and you don't find normies in it. It's hard to explain but it's a vibe that is inaccessible to a lot of people. There's a lot of scene control and cock blocking though.

The women are hot

Anyways, I'm king of the edgelords. When you simmer edge and nihilism long enough, you get fun impish sorts that dont believe in anything, but are generally well adjusted and fun. I've walked around in death metal band tees all my life, and if it's authentic (read: something you actually like) most people seem to resonate. Lots of people love edgy anime and unreadable band logos and my experience is that tons of people love gore if it's tasteful or doesnt take itself too seriously. It signals a bohemian sort of refinement.

The aesthetic aspect is popular because it's like... early 2000s and things go in 30 year cycles, so the people listening to The Faceless and watching Cannibal Holocaust are being emulated by the younger gens, particularly because there is a retro internet revival. I get the best of both worlds; people who know are happy to discuss whatever I'm into, and people who don't at least recognize the time and curation. Had a great conversation about Francis Bacon (painter/faggot) the other day along those lines.

>>24600972
There is inherent suffering to existence, this is the noble truth of the Buddha.
This suffering is caused by human desire and need, which can never been satisfied.

How then should we relate to this suffering?
The Buddhist would say to relinquish desire, where the end point is to become a hollow shell of a person.
The Christian would say to accept the suffering, and trust in God's love and the sacrifice of Christ to forgive all sins.
The Hedonist would say to overwhelm the senses, to mask the underlying suffering.
The Nihilist would say that existence is meaningless and suffering is an illusion, so don't worry about it or anything else for that matter since you're throwing Love out with the bathwater as well.

In modern times we are accustomed to talk to someone, but a psychologist is hard to get, expensive and unavailable when you need them. A friend is difficult because most people do not want to engage in another persons suffering, or they do not know how and would instead make a bad situation worse. Most people won't do either and instead deny or suppress their trauma, until it breaks them.

The Goth handles the suffering of life by micro dosing it every day, to speak "I am in pain" a little bit all the time.
Not hiding or denying it, not seeking salvation from somewhere else, but to wear it on their literal sleeves and externalize the pain. They break social conventions when you are expected to put on a smile and pretend everything is all right. They take agony and transfigures it into art. Goth, Emo and Expressionists are all part of the same continuum of trying to express the turmoil which can't be said in words.
I think it's the healthiest option really.

Plus chicks in black with a collar is hot as fuck. Every time I see a woman with black lipstick I need to have those around my dick god damn.

If that's what the Christian would say, he didn't read his bible.
Jesus taught 1 thing more than anything else: you too can be God incarnate just like him.
Luke 9 is dedicated to this fact. The 12 apostles gain all of Jesus' god powers there and use them to do the same miracles.
Deferring divinity to the church is satanic.
As such, the Christian who knows his material would say to fight the suffering with righteous benevolence and violent retribution against all those who do harm intentionally.

Goth these days is merely an aesthetic
They like the style these people wear, their dressings etc
There is no political msg tied to it (anymore), its just an imitation of the original without ideals though goth inluencers will tell you its a leftwing anti establishment bs whatever. It has no ideology anymore and is purely an empty shell of the original.
Its dead, essentially, kept alive via social media and small enclaves that are there purely of the aesthetic.

I hate your prose, but agree with your statement at the end of the day. One minor tweak:

It's the postmodern "hippie"; someone who is self aware, but received the cold shoulder when they tried to save the world instead of drugs and success. Someone "goth" who became successful did so in spite of nihilism and rejection, which imbues them with the "magic" of postmodernism, that ineffable triumph and transmission of feeling that cannot be grasped or known from the surface without commentary. Not that it's deep, you can psychoanalyze the archetype accurately, but someone in a suit at work but walking around in a Death hoodie on their days off is marked, and visible. To handle scrutiny for 20+ years changes a person. So in a society of constant observation, people want to emulate that carefree confidence: look at me I'm obviously standing out, and either I've learned to handle the gaze, or I'll be consumed by it then discard it.

So, instead of microdosing pain, it relates the content to the absurd. Liking this instead of that when your hamburger came from a slaughter house is just as absurd as live laugh love on your wall made in a hell factory.

Nah that's a common Western misunderstanding of Buddhism. Ridding yourself of "desire" and attaining nirvana doesn't mean you become an indifferent statue.
It's often described as a state of pure bliss and especially in the Mahayana tradition you'll be filled with compassion and want to help others attain it too.

Goth originally came out of the post-punk scene of the late 70s/early 80s. Most of the original bands don't acknowledge the label for themselves (The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Sisters of Mercy) but most of the bands directly inspired by them usually do. Being from the post-punk scene, some bands were a lot more experimental than others. Topics could range from love, to drugs, family life, isolation, or even just the macabre and horror
Emo is a bit more complicated but the short answer is that what most people see as "emo" is the third wave of emo, which became popular in the 00s. This came out of the pop-punk scene, which is partly why it was a lot more accessible to kids/teens. Lyrics tended to focus more on broken hearts/relationships/fights with parents, but that's a generalization

i only like the music and the dark atmosphere of goth clubs but all the women there are simultaneously "look at me" but also "dont talk to me I am too cool for you to talk to" pretty to look at but they are kind of stuck up narcissistic bitches. i always had better luck meeting girls in legitimate punk rock clubs.

goth is a failed kikes attempt to peddle trve to normless. they eventually succeeded with metal/deathcore nonsense.

>girl Goths unfortunately smoked a lot and it was gross
A lot of them smoked those godawful stinking clove cigarettes too. There was one brand that was popular because they were solid black cigarettes with gold bands that looked very fancy and Gothic. I tried one and it made me want to vomit.
