      Nah, it’s now metastasized through culture that it’s lost meaning. It’s now just a “style” and that’s okay. The world moves on.

      Once upon a time, wearing blue-jeans or growing your hair long as a guy was considered a niche sub-cultural movement.

      You can find new things to feel misunderstood about!

      Just did a cursory search on what goth culture is, what it stands for, and so far only found explanations that are incredibly vague/none-conclusive, or like Wikipedia focus entirely on metrics, but not on what it means.

      So… Uh… Good luck to anyone else trying to learn what “goth” actually is outside of the established tropes or those cool guys that sacked Rome.
