The name being combination of sacrilege and hardcore, sacricore is partially an off shoot of trendercore and queercore with it focusing of reclaiming the notion that LGBTQ+ identities are sinful as well as borrowing visual aesthetics from catholicism and combining them with queer aesthetics.

The main goal of SacriCore is for those negatively affected by Christian religions to find peace in their queer identities or otherwise morally acceptable interests, lifestyle, or choices (people who are divorced, have had abortions, are mentally ill / disabled / neurodivergant, are pagan or wiccan, etc) that have been labled as sinful.

SacraCore can be used in an atheist sense or a "pro-Jesus, anti-christianity" sense.

Jack Ratt's post on his tumblr side blog called Gender For Lunch. It reads "SacriCore - an off shoot of trendercore for those focusing on reclaiming the idea that queer identities are sinful as well as borrowing aesthetics from catholicism" in large caps. It then reads " The name comes from sacrilege and "hardcore", so it's a punk or alternative aesthetic.It celebrates "sins" that are actually morally harmless or even fun - queerness, drugs, alcohol, disobeying authority, devil worship (ironic or sincere) etc. Though I never want anyone trying to pressure anyone into doing any of these things if they're uncomfortable! It combines a lot of trenderpunk with catholicism aesthetics, celebrating queerness and gender noncomfortmity. Mascs in nun costumes, feminine people in priest cassocks, etc. do not use sacracore to be antisemitic or xenophobic, this is for people healing from the pain caused by their own bad religious experiences." In smaller text.

Morals

What "sins" are considered morally acceptable to celebrate in SacriCore are largely based around leftist beliefs. If said sin isn't harming others, ignoring the consent of others, or based on bigotry towards minorities (disrespecting muslims or jewish people is strictly off limits, they hold no power over you and disrespecting them would be punching down rather than up) then it is safe to assume SacriCore supportsit.

Fashion

Although SacriCore is mainly based off of catholic aesthetics, DIY punk fashion, and has slight inspiration Nu-Goth, what SacraCore can be absorbent of any kind if alt fashion. The different elements you place in your goth-punk-religious fusion outfit depends on what part of your identity you are using SacraCore to celebrate.

Some elements of a SacraCore outfit could include a crucifix necklace, dirtied or tattered church clothes (modern or retro), pieces from a priest's cassock or nun's habit, crust pants / vests, bondage fashion such as harnesses and leather, 1800s gothic jewelry, fake thorn crowns, and accessories referencing demons and angels (clothing covered in eyes, fake horns, makeup that mimicks wings, etc).
