No but this isn't actually a joke???? Like punk has been whitewashed to be about cishet white dudes when it was basically started by POC/sex workers/queer ppl? Like it's not okay. Not at all and I refuse to see it as a laughing matter

go back to the faygo puddle u crawled out bro

^ I agree. Not cool. Juggalo needs a history lesson.

I think a lot of the queer community within punk rock has shifted more towards indie rock over the years. There's a lot of stuff coming out lately that kinda fuses the two- bands like Hard Girls, RVIVR, Shannon and the Clams, Sourpatch, Mika Miko... I could go on. Maybe it's just because I live in a very queer friendly city but most of the recent punk/diy shows I've been to over the years had pretty diverse crowds. The sound just isn't what you'd call... I guess traditional punk for lack of a better description. And the values/politics are a little different.

Unless you're talking about the more commercialized bands? **** like Rancid and NOFX? In which case... yeah. Suburban white dudes is pretty much the most you'll get at those shows.

Hmm, not sure I know what you think I said?

I'm pretty sure I said I thought it was a good thing hip hop people are wearing punk merch?

I know my favorite rapper Blowfly went punk.

Tr!

Just reading the title, I'm a nerd with a punk-ish girlfriend, so yes haha.

this is 2014, not 1977...it doesnt matter what it started out as, 35 years later a whole new generartion (and even another one) defines it for themselves....I can even go further and say that music is an "individual" experience: what matters is the perception and emotion to each individual listener, regardless of its social status impact

I have a lot more respect for a person that listens to bubblegum pop because thats what he/she likes without any influence from peers or social groups as opposed to a person that claims to like a music style because of what its supposed to stand for within a certain social circle
