Punk is coming back

That image is a lie. You can be punk and lie about this. a

Punk isn't real

Progress is always counterculture because the mainstream can never reach the cutting edge

Christianity is the now the new punk. Christ was the most punk of all. Think about it.

All the good punk bands sing in Spanish now

When did punk come to be seen as a state of spiritual enlightenment or whatever? People talk about it as if dressing up like a 1970s street urchin and screeching “we live in a society” into a talk boy microphone is the highest aspiration a person should have.

Is it a cult of Kurt Cobain thing since he was definitely a huge believer in this mentality, or did this shit exist in the 70s and 80s too?

Complete misinterpretation of what punk is really about. It's just about anti-authoritarism, anti-system dialectics and anti-mainstream ethos. That sometimes aligns with the feminist, communist, whatever-ist ethics of some bands, but most punk bands are completely outside of said dialectics. Examples: The Cure, Bauhaus, Joy Division, Thursday, Poison the Well, Converge, etc.

punk is supposed to have no rules

cant even say niggerfaggot

Disagree. These traits aren’t exclusive to punk. You can be punk and be these things but it doesnt define you as punk.
To be punk would be to be anti-authoritarian and anarchic.
Trumptards and contrarian windowlickers claim they’re punk because they’re racist and homophobic and conservative etc but this is disingenuous and stupid because there is nothing less punk than kissing The Man’s ass.
True punk is rare now. The movement was all too easy to co-opt

even black metal bands are afraid of being called nazis these days, cant make this shit up

Christianity is the now the new punk.

Nearly 2bn Christians in this world, anon. They outnumber atheists and non-believers (1.1bn)…so no.
American Christianity is also huge corporate ass kissing with a victim complex and no actual adherence to Catholicism (the real Christianity)

This guy gets it. On another note, is Avril Lavigne trve punk?

Niggas really be thinking that it's based to end your life saying you're a nazi on social media. Yeah, right.

No religion is punk, even though Jesus was a punk

If religion isn't punk then why are there a ton of communists in it?

This is what my conclusion is.

I always think of something like this when I think of “anti authoritarian” and “punk” bands like RATM or Dead Kennedys
All that shit they say? Ruined by their own protracted legal wranglings. You could never be punk signed to a major label

Thanks man, yknow what I’m going to say Avril is a true punk at heart despite her mainstream leanings.
Shes never gave a fuck about what people think and she married a handsome literal chad Chad Krueger who everybody hated
Plus she’s so emo, cute and trve punk. Huge fan

Yes

Punk died when everyone started larping as Sid Vicious. McLaren won. It's over.

jesus was a punk

He was. Hated by authority figures like the Pharisees and treated indifferently by the Romans.
He turned shit over in the temple. He mixed with and reached out to thieves, liars and prostitutes to teach them about redemption.
He was a Jew sure but he was the original anti authoritarian figure.
He’s since been bastardised and his teachings warped and co-opted by governments and The Church. It happens to all anti authoritarian movements

Punk has been dead for 40 years let it rest

My thoughts on that too. The Sex Pistols were manufactured. McClaren auditioned them to be in his boy band. The punk scene was merely a trend that commercialised

False correlation. "If burgers aren't meat, why is there a lot of meat in them?"

You could never be punk signed to a major label

I pretty much agree. Converge still play to small audiences in small clubs. Even the punk bands that went big (The Cure) still retain artistic control, releasing music of high quality when they see fit (see, their new record). The sellouts like Green Day or Blink 182 lost all soul in the process of getting money. Such is life.

I think there is some punk in her, like, she actually is what she says she is: just a pop rock songwriter with punk aesthetics and sometimes lyrics. I respect her honesty. Plus it was a giga Stacy move to marry Chad.

kek

This, so much this.

False correlation

No it's not, these fags literally sound like you're commiting blasphemy against them, you'd get less pushback if you went to a church and said god is dead or satan is the true messiah.

But that's not what I was saying...?

Literally gives people the same emotional responses as a religious awakening and mirrors the writing of christianity.

But that's not the point of a false correlation, anon. I also don't agree with what you said.

Okay so it’s just being anti authoritarian? In America at least, you can either vote for one of two parties, or you can be outside the Overton window in which case Punk Rock Veronica in the OP tells you that you, by definition, aren’t punk. How can you be anti-authoritarian but still be punk under these conditions, it seems like “ITS IMPOSSIBLE!!!”.

I don't even know about all that politics bs, because I'm not el americano, but I guess authenticity is also a part of being punk, so you could be a punk right winger or something. Same with the left, even though most punks are left wingers. Actually, wasn't Jello Biafra right wing now? He strikes me as a complete hypocrite anyway.

My point is that the last decade was the progressive answer to the 1950’s, with all the social conformity and repression that entails. But punk is, as the op said and I think most people inherently sense, anti authoritarian from a cultural left perspective. You can’t be a culturally dominant punk, and you can’t be a punk right winger according to OP and popular consensus, so at the end of the day it’s just a consumption habit. An aesthetic. People know this already, it’s not really a new observation, but what kills a few of my brain cells every time I make the mistake of thinking about it is wondering why people give a fuck about what is real punk and what is fake punk, and why does this take up so much of the phrenological real estate of the white millennials and gen x’rs?

phrenological real estate

Yeah, I don't get what this means, but responding to your reply, I think only a few punk elitists really give a fuck about what is or not true punk at a deep level. I think there have been some famous right wing punk; if I remember correctly, didn't Ian Curtis vote for Thatcher or something like that? I think, at the end of the day, punk is about anti mainstream, anti autoritharianism, and depending on one's POV one can consider the left just as authoritarian and mainstream as most leftists see the right, therefore creating right wing punks.

I know, but it's such a bizarre one, lol. Oh, I just got it, you meant the head. Right. kek
