Are there any highschool subcultures that are cool now? Speaking from a US perspective:

  • Jocks are now finance/crypto bros, or clueless managers.
  • Nerds are building bombs or AI or spending their days trying to get people to click on ads.
  • Theatre kids are imperialist hamilton libs who think the US is "a nation of immigrants", and not a settler-state based on indigenous eviction.
  • Hippies are pacifist color-revolution-supporters.
  • Goths are probably eco-nihilists.
  • My experience with modern day punks, skaters, and stoners is that they're mostly some kind of libertarian who believe in a lot of reactionary conspiracy theories.
  • Hipsters are almost always some flavor of western-chauvinist / white supremacist.

Do any of these high school subcultures even still exist?
