It's a fair bet that anytime someone breaks out "hipster" as a general insult, the person doing it doesn't have anything worth saying

It's this generation's version of "you kids"

Often, they use "hipster" to mean "trend follower".

I'm not sure it's always not worth saying; being too focused on trends is a valid criticism.

If you can point out the human being who follows no trends at all, I'll accept that your definition has use. I don't believe that you are correct, however.

I'd that's what they mean, they should say that. "Hipster" just means "someone I don't like" and so has no value in a public forum conversation.

"Hipster" is far closer to my definition than yours.
