Who on earth still believes in Hipster culture in this day and age?
On the surface, a lot of its elements never really went away: vinyl’s still spinning, craft beer keeps flowing, and farmers markets are thriving. What’s changed, though, is the vibe. Back in the 2010s, so much of the culture felt performative—like people were into things because it made them look unique or “cultured.” That’s what I remember about the stereotypical hipster: ironic mustache, obscure band tee, $9 pour-over, and a constant need to be just ahead of the mainstream.
But now I actually feel like the people still clinging to vinyl or weekend markets are doing it because they genuinely love the thing, as it’s no longer a trend. The social currency around those choices has faded, so the ones sticking with it seem more real. Less curated, more lived-in. It’s kind of refreshing. Anyone else feel this way?
