As people have said before, it's fun, relatable, simple, anyone can do it and it makes the listener feel empowered. Plus it's a mixture of two genres that play off each other pretty perfectly.

I'm not part of any folk punk scene but I think the genre has some of the best story telling songs. I also just flat out enjoy the music. It's often upbeat, catchy, gritty with ,for the most part, honest, no bull**** lyrics.

Default Violent Femmes
The Violent Femmes certainly fit the category of folk punk. Perhaps one of the first to be called folk punk.
