“爷青回”:青年群体的自恋主义、身份焦虑与集体怀旧

“Ye Qing Hui”:narcissism,identity anxiety,and collective nostalgia in young people

网络怀旧是青年亚文化形态之一,通过对Bilibili年度弹幕“爷青回”的兴起与青年群体自恋主义心态、身份焦虑以及渴望情感抚慰间联系的探索,力图呈现充满敌意和冒犯的边缘性文化如何被主流文化吸纳并为大众认可的过程。一方面,“爷青回”式的网络怀旧形成集体情感空间,集体性缅怀行为回应并抚慰青年群体当下的焦虑,对疏导社会负面情绪有重要意义;另一方面,青年群体的怀旧行为,也具有消费主义对“爷青回”亚文化的意义消解和自恋主义的极端化倾向,在应对时代症候中有其负面影响。

Network nostalgia is one of the subcultural forms of youth.By exploring the relationship between the rise of“Ye Qing Hui”in Bilibili’s annual bullet show and the narcissistic mentality,identity anxiety and desire for emotional comfort among young people,this study tries to present the process of how the hostile and off ensive marginal culture is absorbed by the mainstream culture and recognized by the public.On the one hand,the“Ye Qing Hui”type of network nostalgia forms a collective emotional space,and the collective behavior of refl ecting on and soothing the current anxiety of young people is of great signifi cance to channeling social negative emotions.On the other hand,the nostalgic behavior of the youth group also has the meaning of consumerism to the“Ye Qing Hui”subculture and the extreme tendency of narcissism,which has its negative impact on coping with the symptoms of the times.
