Visual Kei was, and pretty much always will be a counterculture movement with a cult following. Things come and go in popularity. That's been the case with Nu Metal, Eurodance, etc.
 
Part of it is the fact that Harajuku culture is dead and J-Fashion is so toned down, and a proper J-Fashion revival is possible, but no matter what, Visual Kei isn't going to be the mainstream phenomenon it barely even was at one point. Its always gonna be a niche movement with niche music tastes. Japanese people and Americans always have, and always will be mainstream taste-wise. Thats the nature of things. No use getting mad about it, because there really is nothing you can really do about it. Just enjoy Visual Kei while it's still a thing. 

Also, there are a ton of people, regardless of their political affiliation, who wear colored hair. Dyed hair is arguable more popular and accepted than it ever was, and so are piercings and makeup on men. 
The current social climate is arguably the best for Visual Kei, because alternative fashion is becoming more normalized as people just stop giving a fuck. I mean, Scene fashion is seeing a revival in 2020, and in recent years, Gothic Rock and Post Punk made a mini comeback. People are finally starting to no longer giving a fuck what you look like, or what you wear.

They actually do. I'm not joking. 

Japanese cops are notorious for being useless and corrupt, such as letting high collar crime go unnoticed, and ruling murders as suicides.
Wouldn't put murder past them tbh

Well there is Seo Taiji and Boys, which in the 90's, did a mix of Hip Hop, Pop, RnB, Rock AND Metal depending on how they were feeling that day lol

Kaiki trying to revive Soleil in 2020.
I support this (mostly). But it ain't a proper Soleil revival without La'Mule

pedophilia is cancelled 🙌🙌🙌
