Are hipsters still a thing?

[Neighborhood Curmudgeon]

I ask because still see hipsterish people around, but not as much as I did in the 2000s and early 2010s. If hipsters died out, then I wonder what replaced them.

 

[Betonhaus]

it depends on how you define a hipster. I'd argue that they're all still around, but warped beyond recognition.

Saw one the other day I beeped my horn at him and he ran back into the coffee shop

There's that god-awful Australian "comedy" troupe Aunty Donna.

 

[Tism the Return II]

They're called redditors now.

Absolutely.

A lot of people don't know this but the person who created the Hipster movement back, like, a decade and a half ago was Gavin McGuinness. Look for the curled mustache, IPA, mini cooper, avocado toast, ray bans or pit vipers, plaid dress shirt, minimalist, aesthetic, or vintage tattoos, holier-than-thou attitude, coexist bumper sticker, small luxury-breed dog, etc etc.

You'll see em, the movement went from "staying ahead of the bandwagon" to it's own bandwagon full of the most insufferable stuck up assholes imaginable.

I don't want to be didactic, but it's a term from the 50's/60's similar to beatniks.

Those sound like things faggots have. Was hipsterism a psyop to get straight men to act like faggots?

I'm still here

 

[Neo-Nazi Rich Evans]

i certainly dont see them around here anymore, but i didnt see too many of them to begin with. i went from seeing a few to seeing none. i guess they either grew out of it, or they all moved to portland/washington/vancouver or some other overpriced hipster city.

I've heard it used sparingly in literature but that wave is always referred to as "hippies". Hipsters are most definitely a millennial movement. I have a bit of experience in this topic and Gavin was at his peak as a Vice co-creator when he made this movement, originally focused on metrosexualism and being cool, ahead-of-the-curve as it were. By the time Gavin was hanging out with Milo and making the Proud Boys punch eachother while screaming about cereals he had already fell off, but if you want to find out more about what we know today as "hipsters" follow 'aughts McGuinness's influence.

The worst of them trooned out or completed their evolution into utter bugmen SJWs.

So the remainder still exist and are kind of annoying but not the plague they used to be.

Yes

Pretty much. Before the big bushy beard craze they were called "metrosexuals".
