What is counter culture?

When a group of people acts like people they previously tried to make fun of or call weird earlier in life, but they're actually replacing anything that is unique (or old) with something a bit more bubblegum pop (or new) and mainstream (but don't want their activities to be transparent or obvious to anyone) by claiming to be/posing as the raw person's kind of raw, the outlaw's outlaw.

He/she/they were a part of a secret society/organization trying to launch a successful counter culture coup that established counter surveillance on anything that represented anything left of the old counter culture to replace it with a new bland version of it, and a new guard to guard it.

Counter culture - definition

a counter culture is not a culture that is different from the main culture. its not emo, ska, hippie. those are called sub culture. COUNTER CULTURE is a culture that opposes the main culture and the main culture opposes it. this would include gangs, kkk, skinheads, etc.. By studying countercultures we can see what flaws we have in real culture.

Drug dealers choose to live in a counter-culture because that is what they know.

Counter culture - slang

A misleading term coined by the music industry and MTV to trick gullible, angsty teenagers into a false sense of rebellion, either against "mainstream" music scenes, society, or at least their parents.

Counter-cultures can range from obscure and "underground" (also another industry trick word) to being popular and mainstream.

When a counter-culture becomes mainstream (such as grunge in the 90's and most recently, emo), it is still marketed as being against the mainstream although music acts of that genre might be flying off the charts. Of course this leads to the more elitist counter-culturists who follow a counter-culture just to impress their friends by following obscure, unpopular and/or cult-favorite music acts.

Common examples of counter-cultures (both mainstream and underground):
Reggae
Punk(that includes you "hardcore" punk types. Don't give me any "but I'm a TRUE Punk because I hate Avril and pop-punk" bullshittery)
Ska
Emo
Raver music
Grunge
Nu Metal
Indie
Techno
Gangsta Rap
Any other offshoot of Punk or Metal in general.

Let me be to the point here:
You're not unique.
You're not profound.
You're not original.

You're a sheep that follows a smaller herd. That's all. I'm not any better but at least I realise it instead of being arrogant to people about my music preferences.

Counter culture

any group of people whose beliefs, values, styles, and attitudes differ from that of the prevailing culture. Counter-culture began with the hippie movement back in the late 60's and 70's. In today's society, counter-culture is most often seen in the alternative subcultures.

The gothic, punk, emo, skater, raver subcultures are all examples of present-day counter-cultures.
