Plot twist: they've always been conservative.

wow surprised there was no mention of gavin mcinnes. he's considered the godfather of modern hipsterdom and co founded vice magazine back in the 90s. he maintained that OG hipster aesthetic after he left vice, started the proud boys, and became the neo fascist everyone knows him as today. he was doing this kind of thing before it was cool lol

The term āYuppieā was created in the 80ās by mass media to contrast with the āHippiesā of the ā60s. The common trope was that the hippies had grown up, rejoined mainstream society, and become materialistic. BTW, the term āHippieā was initially a diminutive of āHipsterā implying that they were just kids who liked to play hipster as opposed to the serious, deep, artistic hipsters of the ā50s like Jack Kerouac.

I've been thinking a lot lately about the hipster friends I used to have who've gone down the alt-right rabbit hole. One other reason I might add is that hipsters and conservatives find value in some idealized past. Hipsters and conservatives are both equally likely to pick a decade past, point to it, and say "see, things were better then."

In my country,Argentina,the hipster aesthetic is associated with quasi-liberal pretentious millenials that think they're eco-conscious when they're really not and live on a daily dosis of speciality coffee and IPA

I never really thought of the hypocrisy of the 2010s hipster. Theyāre so obsessed with being different that they all become carbon copies of each other. They become exactly what they despise.

I was absolutely noticing this trend in the 2010s and particularly in churches. When the Lumineers, and Mumford and Sons achieved peak popularity was when Contemporary Christian Music adopted a similar sound (much in the same way they tried with U2 and Coldplay before it.)
I specifically remember the MOST rigid-calvanist churches picking up on this the most. These were the churches that would go to bat for hell, and God's plan to make people predestined for eternal damnation while also framing themselves as the "cool church."
Tattoos became okay, talking about how much you loved coffee and beer became cultural signifiers, and every man tried to adopt the beard and glasses look of a Gavin McGinnis. It really sucked and I think at the time it showed how toothless the aesthetic was.

I feel in many cases itās less a transformation and more an expansion. Now that itās been over a decade, the āhipster aestheticā has gotten so mainstream that suburban conservatives have also adopted it.
The trends escaped Brooklyn and Portland years ago, every city in the Midwest and south now also has a craft brewery run by guys with mustaches and forest tattoos and a dozen old warehouses turned into brick loft condos.

The Hispter lifestyle is something that requires a lot of free time and disposable income. Only the kids from wealthy families become the what is the most popular or familiar versions of what a Hipster is. Underneath the pretentiousness, they always knew that wealth was what made it all possible. With aging out of their 30's, they aspire to be more like their 1%ers parents.

My experience with "Hipster-dom" (as an observer of the subculture here in America) leaves me with the impression that it has always been a somewhat derided and mocked aesthetic, with most people finding its adherents to be insufferably smug, self-congratulatory, trying way too hard to be "cool", and ultimately very superficial. It's no surprise, therefore, that Alt-Right conservative personalities have taken the lifestyle onboard, as many of them are much the same.

Conservatives adopting slightly more "hip" attire doesn't make them a hipster, nor does economic nationalism- which they've always espoused.

As far as leftists wanting to buy local, I think it's much less to do with a distaste for globalism as it is just knowing that it's easier to know that things are ethically sourced when they come from local distributers within our own communities. I think we want globalism in the sense of an interconnected and united world, but still with locally sourced and grown foods, goods, and services for ethics and sustainability purposes. I think this also simultaneously helps fight big corps and monopolies in certain ways as well.

Could it just be that hipsters are getting older? Like when a lot of boomers who were a lot more progressive & anti-establishment when they were younger, over time became more and more right wing? Maybe it could also be related to how the word "libertarian" shifted from a left-wing term into a right-wing one in the US? It started around the 50s but I still feel like there's been a pretty dramatic shift in the past decade.

I knew a guy in my friend group years ago who was the epitome of hipster. He was obsessed with picking all of his consumption habits to differentiate himself from others around him. It was infuriating to interact with him because he was so focused on showing how cool he was rather than building friendships with our group. I haven't thought about him in a long time, but it makes sense why no one wants to be called a hipster now.

A similar thing happened with the hipster's parents, the baby boomers/hippies. Their nonconformist subculture turned into the first tech bros (e.g., steve jobs) of the world. So it makes sense that the hipsters would go down a similar path.

Hipsterism is definitely very close to yuppieism and conservatism. If we consider the definition of hipsterism to be the obsessive cultivation of one's "brand" and image, that act is something closely related to privilege. Their ability to cultivate their image is closely tied with the maintenance of their privilege and the power structures that support it. Otherwise everything comes crashing down. A lot of these "tech bros" pretty quickly can rally behind fascism, or the rigid enforcement of the status quo, all in service of their egoism.

Way back in the early 1980s, I had an energy executive come outside to where we were protesting plans for a nearby nuclear power plant. He said, "Let me tell you what's going to happen. We're going to buy up all your "flower power" nonsense and then use it to make you all look like clowns. We'll flood the marketplace - which means your voice will be lost and you'll never heard from again. It's called win/win. We love you guys now."
Appropriating ... and then modifying until it is unrecognizable ... is a ploy. Pretty much an evil tactic to irradicate opposition and alternatives. You'll see whenever a group gains enough of a following to present a threat to the status quo.

I'm a veteran communist in my 60's and have seen many social trends and fashions in music, clothes; indeed all manner of lifestyle/image things aiming to project progressive views.
I've never been able to afford to follow any of them but have seen how they create divisions, often violent, between eco-warriors, anarchists, communists,socialists, ethnic groups, lgtb+ etc. At the fundamental level our fight is the same but these divisions via phoney appropriation of progressive causes are immensely profitable for conservatives.
