Last week, I linked to Hannah's piece about aesthetic and moral nihilism and value judgment. If you didn't read it then, I am linking it again here. Today, on my phone, I see many things like text saying if you put down your phone it's still 2003, overlayed with a photo of a river - sentiments which are kind of true and kind of annoying because they think they’re clever and they're not that clever and also, they are not that true. A few weeks ago, Ellie asked if there is such a thing as counterculture in 2024, and if so what is it? Outside of vague anecdotes and vibes, how would a contemporary counterculture be defined? I thought about this a lot, particularly in the context of downtown, heterodoxy, material vs aesthetic vs moral platitudes, blah blah blah but you get what I mean. In her GQ piece, Magdalene points out that "if Dimes Square really was some psyop to convert conservative-curious young hipsters into full-on Republican voters, it succeeded." Granted, most things you think are psyops probably aren't, people are pretty predictable, unlikely coincidences were probably actually pretty likely all along but I digress, because the question remains -- Ok, so now what?
