On second thought I read that there is a high risk of suicide related to both groups. I say roll on douchebags, survival of the fittest. As long as you're not breeding go ahead with your make-up wearing self.

jingarelho Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 this is just a media stunt for making a $ selling sh*t and keep the masses distracted from the real problems of the world. Haven?t you noticed that from time to time some event is "associated" by the media to some pseudo-cult, first was MTV, then its was the Video Games, now there are EMO's, its just a way to sell you crap and keep you distracted from the REAL problems.

Angelic Marge Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Exactly. In the same way that people in this thread have the right to listen to whatever they want to, and dress how they like.I really cannot believe the attitudes of some people in this thread. I'm not going to point out individuals, however, if you don't want to look at somebody, nobody's forcing you. If you don't want to take notice of what they look like, nobody's forcing you. Just because somebody doesn't look like/dress like/listen to the same music as you, it doesn't mean it's wrong. Exactly, my dad had a strong stereotypical view of my daughters boyfriend and friends till he actually met them face to face and found out you should never judge a book by it's cover. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Skin tight trousers have been around long before most of you people here, my dad wore than in the 50's /60's and I wore then in the 80's, they were unbelievably tight and if they had even a tiny tiny little bit you could pull we'd refuse to wear them calling them baggy :| Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/651756-emo-and-goth-to-be-made-illegal-in-russia/page/5/#findComment-589589618 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BilliShere Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I thought they went away in the 70's. :) I thought so too once.. oh yes.. they still lurk around in the deepest darkest mukiest areas of the society we live in today. Of course this is best illustrated by Eric cartman as you can find hippies in your attic, in your walls, etc. lmao.

dysmatik Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 (edited) I grew up with lots of goth friends and none of them were whiny or suicidal. Most of them "look" the way they did because they were angry at the world, not themselves, and/or did it to rebel against parents or normal standards of beauty in society. And by the "world" I mean government, or corrupt elements of society, or whatever was bothering them. It was a way to express themselves and make a statement through personal tastes. The music was always meant to be spooky, haunting, or whatever dark description can provide and not self loathing. Besides goth is just a stupid label anyway. I mean think about it; does the Cure sound like Marylin Manson? No, but the media would tell you that they're both goth. That is why the stereotyping is really garbage. It's just like the media made out all raves to be drug-fests in the early 90's, which is a total crap. I used to be a "raver" and have seen more drugs at a concert-hall seeing smashing pumpkins than I ever saw at a rave. And I went to raves every weekend for a few years in the 90's. It's all fictitious crap spewed by the media that way too many people consume. Don't Believe the Hype.

Arkaic Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 (edited) What about my right not to have to see people that look like complete tools?That's not a right. That's your judgement/perception.There is not a fashion trend in the past 100 years that looks so stupid. Again your judgement and perception. If it bother's you that much look the other way. I say we put a stop to it not only so the rest of society doesn't have to look at them, but for their own good as well :p You come off awfully ignorant, and selfish, almost like a prick! Do you realize that? This is not fair at all. They should ban all ugly, depressed and scruffy people. What about those overly happy people too? they make me sick. :x My point is, you shouldn't be able to outlaw how people feel and express themselves, unless it cause physical dangers to others. And don't give me bull**** about "pain and suffering" or "emotional distress".... Hell I've had people that upset me in the past because of their attitude and treatment of others. That doesn't mean its right for me to control them. Oh boo hoo my ex dumped me. It upsets me to look at her, throw her in jail or make the government steal her rights in the name of my "rights".

It's astonishing how many close minded people have showed up in this thread. I don't like jocks (few exceptions) but it shouldn't be up to me or even the government if they are outlawed. IMO, that's just wrong! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/651756-emo-and-goth-to-be-made-illegal-in-russia/page/5/#findComment-589593495 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trauma Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 The ignorance and arrogance and the sheer stupidity by the majority of the people in here makes me sick to the stomach. You know who you are. If you are against everything that is melancholy and dark, don't ever read shakespeare. Those who label themselves as goths or emos chose to do so, because it is right for them. It does not matter if they're confused teenagers who have not yet found their place and meaning in this world or not. As long as they do not run around hurting other people, they have all the right to proceed as they wish (within the law). All those of you who judge them for what they are (humans) must feel like you are a god yourself. It's quite honestly sickening. Why didn't this topic get closed yet? What if your government would ban HipHop look, Skateboarders or whatever subculture you are part of? Does not seem right, now does it? You guys need to think for once! :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/651756-emo-and-goth-to-be-made-illegal-in-russia/page/5/#findComment-589593524 Share on other sites More sharing options...
39 Thieves Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 You know, most self-respecting subcultures would say screw it, we'll do what we want, illegal or not...not just whine about it on the internet. I guess those tight little pants make it difficult to grow a pair.
