Don’t succumb to (selective) nihilism. Don’t give up out of some childish concern over seeming cool in front of the new popular kids. If this pivot from one set of culture cops to another can teach us anything, it’s the virtue of thinking for ourselves and not allowing some trendy clique to dictate how we behave. For one, that clique won’t always be trendy, and obeisance to extremists and assholes never looks good in hindsight. More than that, it highlights the importance of having values beyond “I want to be liked.”
