Local is a term stans use to describe basically people who arent like them. in a more specific definition, locals are people who jump on the badwagon trend-wise and think they are unique. locals think that they are woke because they retweeted a tweet about global warming but really thats it; they have no real opinion/arent educated about other things (at least most of them). easily identifiable by their basic brandy melville or tillys top and american eagle jeans or lulu lemon shorts, they tend to only buy stuff they see other people wearing. locals seem to copy trends that non-locals start. you might also find them on instagram with a “photography account” that only has badly edited sunset pictures or shallow DoF plant photos. they also have very basic music taste such as drake, post malone, rex orange county, and ariana grande. to summarize, locals are the new basic white girl that probably gave you a dirty look when you pronounced billie eilishs name wrong and love emma chamberlain.
