How do you think the 2020s are going to play out with regards to the life or death of subcultures? For example there seems to have been a real contraction and homogenization of goth, emo, alt scene, and in some cases juggalo subcultures over the 2010s. Think a variety of new subcultures like we had in the 90s into the 2000s will emerge or is that peaked in your opinion?

“subcultures” at all were really an 80s-90s thing, a pluralism after the older culture/counterculture thing as the cultural apparatus developed enough bandwidth for multiple channels but was still coherent enough you’d be made aware what the others were. Can’t really see through the paradigm shift there.
