Why did hipsterism die out?
You hardly ever see it mentioned as an identity or an insult anymore.

everyone wants to be black now, nigga
The guy who invented being a hipster has other interests now.
Hipsterism became diluted, and then more popular. Normies in general are now quasi-hipsters
Exactly, hipsters became normie-fied to the point where manbuns, waxed mustaches, and under cuts are everywhere
It didn't die out, but it changed as all fashion trends do. The depression era look (suspenders, beard/curly stache, vintage sailor tats, undercut, etc) is sort of mainstream now, and you see microbrews at Wal-Mart.
2019 hipsters are riffing off late 80's hip hop mashed up with pop. Old sports brands coming back like FILA, fat sweaters, fanny packs, folded beanies, etc. Long hair is also back in style, not to mention vaping. Lots of overlap between hipsters and hype beasts.
t. hype beast
Genuine hipster trends started dying out once big companies started cashing in on it with bands like Mumford and Sons. Hipster trends either got folded into larger more mainstream trends (pitchfork & TMT becoming rap blogs), or just folded up and died (American Apparel bankruptcy & Hipster Runoff sale)
you should kill yourself
it's too white, too problematic
Seems like a lot of people still fit the look, there's just a couple more flavors now.
why
Better question is, why did this show just encourage hipsters rather than make them feel embarrassed?
trump won, fagets are to sad to be quirky for the sake of being quirky
Because people calling other hipsters were actually jealous of their looks. Look at people now, everyone has a manbun and "weird" music interests.
It’s laughing both with and at. Carrie Brownstein was in sleater-kinney and the show frequently had cameos from like J. Mascis and others. Watching the show is being in on the joke and encourages more immersion with the trends

[i[le sigh[/i]
“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.
It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.
Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).
You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.
The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.
Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.
I'm honestly not sure if you have pride in having the grammar and spelling of a special needs child or not. I honestly don't know anymore here, "I was only pretending to be stupid"
2019? These shits look early 2010's af

mainly because of how accurate it is

In the show or what? Are you living in a delusional state?
Because it took over mainstream culture. Every urbanite in their mid 20’s to early 30’s is a “hipster” these days. Yuppy-ism is dead
Hispter things became mainstream normie shit. The definition of a true hipster is always changing. Trend setting contrarian/counter culturalists are always evolving
>The first hipster ever became an alt-right figurehead simply because it was getting too popular to be a liberal
Why were the last couple seasons so bad bros?
It used to be so kino.

They all tucked off to their own independent timeline where they have an independent music career on tour. They believe they are all alone the same way "you or I" do, via the artificial fertility of the simulacrum "society". Also airBnB underwrites more money for them than anything so there's no reason for you to really see them. They ascended into Bandersnatch and I guess they all joined the CIA to harras mediocre society until Buzzfeed fires them. But Again, their in their own private reality as "society" I guess always intended. Maybe it's like porn, maybe it's like the priesthood.
My only problem is that the show makes fun of this decade, but the sing goes back to the last one.
/x/ is leaking again
Didn't they all become sòy trannies?
They're just called soi boys and SJWs now.
When you put it that way, it all makes sense.
Truth but horrible truth
Unironically it became unironic. How ironic.
I miss it, and I miss those years where insecure North Face wearing kids in college would get so upset about "hipster" culture
nowadays everything has shifted to just political culturalism and racial identity culture. Fucking boring, yawn, fuck this decade.
My anus WAS leaking. You WANT to know why hipsterdom(not ism) appears die?
First I will tell TEHLLL you why you're even mentioning Hipster in a reality I get to experience. It's because I put in the effort to tell another person what I call these things, and if you can guess what I call these things I may find the comfort and motivation to tell you how hipsterdom in (I guess "our" "shared") 'reality ' appears die.
spooky stuff just happened when I typed that ' on the front of the word reality FUN!
Ok, so inspired by that here maybe you can answer me a second question, how many art school graduates does your state have every year?
What was hipster became normal.
Anything with this guy is great

Because hipsterism became mainstream when companies got behind it as a way to sell their product.
This is called assimilation. The culture assimilated the subculture. Like when a word assimilates its subtext, and then represents, on a textual level, what was once only subtext.
>being this far behind
>TFW in 2009 & 2010 you had a hipster tumblr blog that was consistently in the top 25 most visited tumblr blogs
Shit was so stupid
