The video discusses the "Vinishko" subculture, a Russian internet phenomenon that emerged around 2017-2018. Vinishko individuals, mostly teenage girls, attempted to appear as "deep" and "edgy" by pretending to be depressed, drinking cheap wine, and reading books by authors like Kafka. They also had a distinct style of clothing, including black hair, glasses, and chokers.
The video creator mocks the subculture, calling them "posers" who didn't actually read the books they claimed to like. They also poke fun at the Vinishko girls' attempts to appear intelligent and creative, despite being shallow and lacking real substance.
The Vinishko subculture gained notoriety on social media and even caught the attention of Russian TV channel Russia 24, which featured a segment exposing the group.
