d00dz… Mexican Emo Violence!?
I hadn’t realized that Mexico was having a huge problem with Emo. It seems that mainstream squares along with Metal Heads, Skaters, Punks & Goths (not certain if this includes Hip Hoppers) have all formed an alliance against Emo in Mexico! And as one online Anti-Emo proponent puts it “they do not drink, they do not have sex, they do not have fun, they go to concerts just to cry, they go to parties just to sit in a corner and cry, and they feel victims of everything, it is really, a very stupid behavior.”
The Anti-Emo sentiment has even gone so far as to spur pro violence Anti-Emo Movement that has been involved in 3 attacks already! But as you can see by the above clip (if you can understand Spanish that is) the Mexican Emos won’t take this lying down and are fighting back against all the Emo hate! This is getting major news coverage in Mexico and while I have to admit I find this humorous, it’s also really fucked up! When Skaters, Goths, Metal Heads and every other outsider subculture gangs up against you, well then you know you’re in serious trouble! Even the VJs have begun fanning the flames! Even if you don’t understand Spanish you’ll still clearly make out “Fucking Bullshit” & “Screamo”! hahaha.
Thanks to the Daily Swarm & The LA Weekly for this bit of enlightening and disturbing news. Please head over to either of these sites for more in depth coverage on the Emo/Anti-Emo Revolution!
