QUESTION: What does the world look like to a goth?

Over on !asklemmy@lemmy.world, someone asks:

(Assuming you are/were a goth) May I ask what makes darkness really appealing to you? I mean I guess we all enjoy some darkness and I've had my dark times so I can understand a bit but umm... Could be wrong but I feel like darkness speaks to those who have a lot of anger or sadness somewhere. Does that make sense?

I also have the preconceived notion that goth culture has to do with rebellion / reappropriation of ostracism / exile / Thanos aka desire for death / Demon worship? and similar drives. Does this sound right to you? How would you put it?

Just trying to understand how the world looks like for a goth.
