Destiny 2 fashion fans are causing a ruckus over some ?edgy? wizard armor

After last week's vote on this year's Destiny 2 Festival of the Lost armor designs, Bungie has already published the winning sets. By popular vote, we've got Evil Wizard Hunters and Warlocks, and Good Wizard Titans, but the fashion community is not at all thrilled with the results.
For years now, Bungie has held seasonal votes for Destiny 2's Halloween Festival of the Lost events, allowing the community to decide which armor sets would eventually be made available. Naturally, not everyone is always thrilled with the results of the vote, but this year's results have riled up way more of a crowd than usual.

Destiny 2's Evil Wizard Armor wins
Following the announcement of the vote, a surprisingly widespread array of threads has popped up on the biggest Destiny 2 fashion subreddit. Some people are unhappy with the perceived "edginess" of the Evil Wizard sets, which is a fairly understandable take, all things considered:
Each of these threads has been positively inundated with comments from community members unhappy with the results of the vote: "Very sorry we exist in a community that is about 70% teenage boys who own hoodies with roses on them and they all have one syllable user names," said user pige0nzwastaken.
Naturally, many of the comments have simply been posted to oppose those who bemoan the voted-in armor sets. Epic_potato420, for example, said "Cry me a potion scarf boy," referencing the Good Wizard Hunter armor.
Of course, given the results, it's clear which armor sets have interested players the most, but it is quite fascinating to see how big of a disconnect there is between the DestinyFashion subreddit and the Destiny community at large. Whatever the case may be, it's going to be fairly easy to slap edgy or non-edgy Shaders onto the winning armor sets to tune them to look just right.
While many members of the community are pointing fingers and arguing over which armor sets should've won, others are taking a grander look at the situation as a whole. Gregermeister1, for example, has voiced their disappointment with "some people on [the DestinyFashion] subreddit" over this behavior.
"Let?s not be nasty to each other though over style differences," they said. "Let?s try to be the one positive destiny subreddit on here because destiny fashion is great and full of so many different style options! I for one am hyped to turn my titan into a paladin wizard and my hunter into an edgy, void arrow shooting witch!" An admirable take, for sure, but it remains to be seen whether this sentiment wins out in the end, or if everyone just keeps on pointing fingers.
