I mean, it's almost like arguing with someone whether or not the sky is blue. The idea the NYC has no meaningful counterculture is not only wrong, but ridiculously wrong at that. The Stonewall riots happened there for Christ's sake. It'd be sort of petulant to dismiss the cultural movements that have come out of NYC. Actually, you'd have to be really,I mean, unimaginably out-of-touch with reality to dismiss NYC counterculture.

It simply didn't contribute to its broader/VC/tech industries like how Silicon Valley was shaped, rendering this entire semantically debate moot. Every place that wants to be the next silicon valley, or Silicon "lesser geographical/architectural structure", simply can't do it without the generational culture to support it.
