For me, it's alt/goth fashion. I'll compliment a good outfit when I see one, but I also know that 80% of the scene consists of people who tend to be catty, spiteful, and judgy, and therefore better to be kept at an arms lenght. Sadly, those are my experiences.
Totally agree! I thought it was just me seeing this scene as being so toxic, but your comment was very validating. I just do my thing in solitude now... Which is actually a very goth thing to do :D
