Punk is god!

This isn't punk! This is pure garbage!

How many OG CBGB's bands are actually political? I'd say the political aspect of "punk" is as stereotypical and unimaginative as the three-chord ****, and likewise dooms the genre. Punk in the creative sense should be about doing and saying whatever you want with the music, so making it about specific politics is just lame. A punk band should be able to talk about libertarianism, communism, or tits and ass as much as they want to. Or else it's just generic punk fascism.

Leave your anarchist organizations with their singular, unified ideology out of punk, elphenor!

I'll stop trolling for a moment and say that I agree with this whole heartedly.

In other news, the phone was ringing and I picked it up and got dial tone. I was so confused.

That point would make sense if anarchism was a coherent ideology beyond being anti-state.

I was gonna comment about punk in the 70s but then realized it would be akin to me getting slashed with a scalpel a few times, and then getting tossed into a tank of piranhas's.

You guys continue on.
