What utter nonsense. "Hipster culture" is a myth, and a poorly defined one at that. The author does not seem to know to what he is objecting. Clearly it's not anything so-called hipsters do or wear, since that is apparently everything. And it's not the people themselves, since that apparently includes everyone, including himself. The word "hipster" needs a break so that it can come back some day and have real meaning again. In the meantime, we'll have pointless complaints like this one setting this phantom category up as a cultural bogeyman capable of "co-opting" literally anything.
