is cottagecore problematic
Account deleted




Before I even think about trying to write a reply even tho I don't directly consider it problematic, I just think it could be better u know - (And specific people\blogs might be problematic and general tendencies.) - I have to utter my confusion to even try to comprehend the amount of content presented as cottagecore. It seems to have moved away from being about cottages and into just a wild array of posts with certain common traits like color (green, white + a third color), nature-themed, berry-picking... It crosses over to so many sub-genres nearly all nature-reliant sorta minimalistic hobbies, life styles and dressing seems to be a part of it... yet the definition is that it is supposed to resemble "western farm life." but yeah there's barely anything farm in that anymore (And why does it have to be only western meh) and one person at least must have done farming as plantations and u know u r not wrong but also it's morally wrong... honestly it's just a form of escapism for city dwelling people. cottage care rose with 130% popularity on tumblr during the beginning of covid so that's pretty clear.

and my biggest stand is probably that if it's supposed to be about farm life, like try to actually support farmers and low-scale farmers around the world or locally that live in fucking poverty while youre out there loving a romanticized image of it.. and gets popularity and followers for it... like give it some depth

also it's pretty whitewashed, if we wanna bring up that part of itĀ

I have a 'cottage core' blog on tumblr technically but it's really just cause i vibe with nature aesthetics and miss having cows in my backyard lol

i think there are a lot of interesting and actually probably good discourse going on within the 'community' or whatever the fuck

but i also think it's like its really just people reblogging pics of cows and enjoying some escapism not every aspect of it is as deep as people make it out to beĀ

i just think its slightly cringy, cause suddenly when something is a tumblr aesthetic everyone wants it despite having absolutely no realistic idea on how that would play out in reality

honestly

also I despise the word like wtf is cottagecore can't we just say style? it's a style, an aesthetic if you want to be fancy. Core? No.Ā 

You watch it. You quote it. You wear it. You act it out for a few days or you just click that like button and dream about it. and then life goes on. I hate how it basically has become this term that's starting to embody all nature aes

idk what exactly you are talking about but there are these compost toilets ugh hard to translate but they have wood flakes and stuff that binds the poop and compostsĀ  pretty fast due to a special kind of bacteria, national parks use them here
