Bastardcore is supposed to strike your fight or flight response. It consists of friendly images along with shock humor themed captions or images that seem out of place and are uncomfortable to look at. One could argue that Bastardcore is an extension of the "cursed images'" meme. This aesthetic is commonly used by people who would refer to themselves as "feral".

Visual[]

Bastardcore visuals are designed to be shocking, mildly offensive by nature, and "cursed" by nature, all in an attempt to make other people as uncomfortable as humanly possible.

Fashion[]

Bastardcore fashion can easily blend in with any other fashion-based aesthetics, common clothes and accessories include ripped jeans and graphic tees, hoodies with strange quotes on them, handmade earrings, and platform shoes or combat boots.
