Well yes, China has their own TikTok pushing a different algorithm/recommendation

But the western world has been trending down in culture sadly... I was a teen in 2005 and it was grim even then. Everyone wanted to be black for some reason.

the west is in full scale culture annihilation mode. links from the current generation to their ancestors are constantly sabotaged, forcing the repetition of societal mistakes, thus producing generational suffering to be mined for profits. I wonder how youths behave in the east, and what they consider to be cool. it would be interesting to compare cultural methods of societal programming (eg. the west stifles youth uprising by promoting gangster rap & idolizing petty crime)

Despite having preppy parents I had to rediscover music and fashion. For music, go classical and folk.

For clothes, despite having preppy parents I never adopted it until now. Pinterest is suprisingly good and white european women in their 20s and 30s have not adopted the jeans & hoodie gamer fashion I was so trapped in as a man.

But it has to be discovered and there is a hurdle there. The codes are oxford shirts, pleated trousers/trousers, coats, jackets.
