- cal85 3y agoMy sense is fewer Zoomers are interested in the grimy/underworld/rave vibe compared to Millennials and Gen X. It’s all the same to them. My theory is that when Millennials were growing up there was still a strong ‘default culture’ that helped sustain a thriving counter-culture. One could move decisively between the two when bored/frazzled. Zoomers have grown up flailing around in a devolved soup of ideas. Everything’s edgy so nothing is.

- BananaPuncakes 3y agoI'd have to disagree this time. I'm in nearly early 20's and there's not really a prevailing and counter culture. Just two dozen different intercting culture. The lack of a overbearing monoculture does make it hard to effectively rebel.

- tekla 3y agoSo what is the counter culture these days? I go to underground parties all the time and I actually don't see many people that seem younger than mid to late 20's. Mostly late 20's early 30's millennials, and the crust punks of the 70's and 80's/
