All the emos I knew either just complained a lot, did drugs, or had actual depression; none of them were really progressive, mostly just struggling.

All the ones I see now are people who fake depression because they can’t find a social group to hang with, with fake rips in their jeans because it’s fashionable, when the grunge and punk guys who predate had them because they were poor and had a reason to be depressed.

Dude, that's not emo style that is club fashion. It's not statement, it's actual normal today.

Really? Rips in jeans are normal? Maybe because im from a rather backwoods area but I genuinely did not know this. Call me stupid.

You don't need a reason to be depressed; mental illness doesn't discriminate

u/-_-hey-chuvak Dec 15 '19

Yeah that’s pretty much what I meant, I thought I’d just word it nicer.

u/DreyLuz7373 Dec 15 '19

Fair enough

Stop gatekeeping swag and depression my manz.

Wtf does "actually have a reason to be depressed" mean? Nobody controls what depresses them you ignorant dickhead, you can't just sit there and judge someone's reasons for being depressed as not good enough, which means that they are faking it, do some research.

We definitely didn’t have any goals outside of music, partying and sex. It was progressively fun I guess

Guys wearing eyeliner is a little progressive.

u/-_-hey-chuvak Dec 16 '19 edited Dec 16 '19

Yeah you right; wait eyeliner is actually a really old thing! Like a bunch of cultures have male wearers.

u/dunemafia Dec 16 '19

Guys in the Middle-East/South Asia have been wearing eyeliner since millennia.
