This interview made me realize how toxic some online goth spaces truly were. People will always have different opinions on whether it's all about the music, whether fashion is an equally important part of it and what genres are part of the scene. I went to WGT last week and felt that in the end it's mostly about the friends I made there. With almost everyone you'll find at least one band you both enjoy. I don't gain anything by calling someone poseur for liking Agonoize. It's just childish.
