im so confused i cant tell if this reblog was meant with hatred or agreement
tumblr.. please tell me you understand that i wasnt saying punk isnt music based.. also no hate to u homie im sure ur epic
anyways elaboration on the original post, i was talking about some people ive seen that will try to discard all of punk's politics then replace it solely with music
if the reblog was meant with hate, then to answer the final tag, i know about punk historylol, i got into the history of punk and a bunch of its subcultures before even listening to the music because i fixated the biggest fixation i could on it for like a few weeks and learnt too much. i love wikipedia! my favourite community resource.
anyways i love learning about punk history and the subculture as a whole its so awesome.
"punk isnt political! punk is mainly music based!"
ok how about i go and drink approximately 217.23L of wall paint. how about that.
i cant explain it but the biohazard symbol has a grip on my brain like no other. this is me this symbol is me. im a biohazard im going to fucking explode. i feel the need to paint this symbol or other associated symbols on everything i create.
i think im hyperfixated on the fucking biohazard symbol.
PUNK PSA:
Please don’t put anything too political on your back patches— especially about your own marginalized experiences.
This has been a long standing rule in punk communities, passed down for generations. People do get jumped and experience violence as a result of this. You can’t see who is behind you, you can’t tell if they’re far right, and you can’t prepare yourself for sudden violence from behind.
So many people are new to the scene, introduced via social media, and don’t know the weight of walking with something on your back (literally and metaphorically) that immediately outs you as marginalized. If you’re able to defend yourself, or out with friends who can watch your back, by all means go for it and wear whatever you want on your back patches but if you walk alone at all ever, please be safe.
Also this is why punks wear spikes and studs on our shoulders especially. Makes it harder for someone to grab you and works as self defense (but also never wear spikes at a small show or if you plan to mosh— people can get hurt!).
hot take but as someone with a uterus i think i should be able to talk about reproductive rights and reproductive healthcare because, despite being a trans guy, it still affects me.
Hello friends!

sadly i cannot donate, but i will share this. if you are able to help in any way then please do consider!
THIS IS SO REAL THOUGH. EITHER THIS OR PEOPLE WILL COMPLETELY TWIST THE MEANING INTO THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT IT IS.
like the songs Take Me to Church and Hallejuah. mfs heard them and went "yeah im sure these songs are pure and holy! theyre definitely not about gay people and sex. awesome!"
back on topic but still slightly off topic, have you guys seen conservatives using Green Day songs? LMFAO like they seriously went "yeah this guy totally isnt talking about us... we arent oppressive or mainstream!!!!! clearly we're the oppressed ones here and this song applies to us"
its genuinely insane like bro you need to either turn off the Green Day music or take that trump flag off your wall. pick one. PLEASE
"punk isnt political! punk is mainly music based!"
ok how about i go and drink approximately 217.23L of wall paint. how about that.
i love the stereotype of punk just being purely scary and insane. like ya theres definitely some odd balls here (love u guys) (most of u) but im literally making myself a belt bag from an old pair of jeans!!!!! im over here doing arts and crafts for the sake of the environment.
fuck capitalism i wanna sew a bag. that i can attach to my belt. with loops. a belt bag. for my little things. fuck you!!!!! ill go listen to my political loud music too!!!!!!!

i feel like one of the most punk things you can do nowadays is be a furry or therian/some form of alterhuman. theres nothing more punk than defying society as a whole and taking an interest in or straight up identifying as non-human beings.
like fuck yeah! wear your tail and mask! wear your fursuit! shits punk as hell and it does good by creating positive experiences for kids and really anyone that can find joy in these things.
i will never understand the hatred towards them, to be fair i grew up around the furry community and am apart of the alterhuman community but even then im not too involved in either. shits awesome
