While hipsters thrive on being individuals and differ in beliefs, attitudes, and looks, there are some key elements that all hipsters share. Even though hipsters act like they don’t care about their looks, they actually try very hard and put a lot of thought into their appearance. They try to express themselves through dressing creatively in hope that their appearance helps them stand out. Hipsters despise the corporate world. Malls, big businesses, and large, environment-damaging cars are all on the hipster hate list. This is why you can often find hipsters supporting small, local businesses. Politically, this subculture is very liberal. They rely on the first amendment and are very involved in social and environmental causes. Along with being involved in politics, hipsters are culturally aware (Lanham 12). They are curious, enjoy learning about other cultures, and often try to immerse themselves in a different culture than their own.
