It's a consumer brand. You have consumers that brand or self identify as 'goths' and they use that to sell them ****. There's even elitist battles of who's more goth. IDK which goth loses, but I do know that who ever is in the market of selling goth music, clothes and accessories is going to win.

I know some real Goth goths, and they are stylish af and it's generally all DIY

If goth weren't a brand it wouldn't have a name and people wouldn't be copying it four decades later. ****ing joiners.

Isn't there a 'goth' club that you frequent? Everything there is free?

You have artists that make 'goth' music.

You have clothing stores that make 'goth' clothes (though most you'd probably avoid because you're more a of a niche early goth type)

Man, if you don't see my point I think you just maybe blinding yourself to the truth that these cultures are nothing more than easy marketing for companies to exploit.

Maybe? Trying to get something through elph's head has about the same success rate as trying to convince Chula of something and if I didn't know he had a personality disorder I'd think he was retarded.

No, Hot Topic became a joke because it was a clothing store targeting shallow edgy teenage angst. Hot Topic caters to goths, juggalos, emos, what ever edge lord trend is permeating the high schools right now.

But there is a distinct style to goth and there are definitely stores that cater to that so you don't have to thrift around for it. Most online. And yes, there are stores that cater to your old school goth tastes. Plenty of leather coats and bat shirts out there on these sites.
