In my language, 'alternative' is somewhat synonymous with 'progressive' (though we still have the bullshit meaning of 'alternative facts', 'alternative medicine'). Is that not a thing in English, too? We rarely have an original thought when it comes to words like this.

in reply to rumschlumpel • • •That's a good point about alternative rock. I changed the title from usually to sometimes, maybe usually was too much.
I've never thought about the word alternative being synonymous with progressive, I tend of think of as meaning against the grain or against the mainstream but in practice sometimes it just means bullshit like in the title. For example RT calls themselves "alternative media" but they're really just propaganda slop.
