Answer:

have different values from mainstream society

Step-by-step explanation:

The counterculture is a term that is used for a group of people that have and practice different values from those of the mainstream society. These groups can be small or have lot of followers. The mainstream values are not attractive to the people of the counterculture, and they think that other values are much better, so they practice those. Because of that, very often the people of certain countercultures are marginalized, harassed, or even physically attacked. We can take the Gothic counterculture for example. Despite it being very peaceful, open minded, and accepts all people as they are, the people often tend to be very harsh toward them because of the way they dress and and their make up, which are dark, and terrifying even in the eyes of the mainstream society.
