It's sad when punk, which should be an inherently anti-'fascist' ideology, get taken over by 'your with us or against us' types instead of the 'gooble gobble's.


Yeah, I get a lot of the "you're with us or against us" crap. Just because I like making sexual remarks about Avril Lavigne, or I think PETA is full of crap, doesn't mean I'm unworthy.

And I really don't want to go through the whole skinhead argument again. Just look it up on Wikipedia or run a search on this site for previous mentions of it.

I know all about skinheads, nazis and SHARPS. The SHARPS that frequented the same shows as me in high school and college were generally complete assholes just looking for a fight. Kind of like hickies (redneck 'hippies' who love the Dead almost as much as caving in a skull).

I asked because one of the kids I hung out in college started losing his hair in high school and by twenty was proper, ring around the back of the head, bald. He shaved his head because it made him feel better, not because it was a political statement. The aforementioned SHARPS were always trying to start crap with him. A haircut does not a 'punk' make, not even a mohawk.

F***k all y'all. I'm punker than all of you put together, and I never needed a dress code or a hair cut to do it, and I never needed to learn any of your goddamn acronyms.
Let it die, ya fekking tosspots. Nobody gives a shit. Punk acchieved nothing and isn't something to get all worked up over. Just listen to the music you like and shut the f*** up aboout your stupid little imaginary club that doesn't even exist anymore. And never did, probably.
See? I told yaz I was punker than you.

Yes, using obscure Britishisms is the way to be a punk.

Yeah, sounds like SHARPs to me. We've had a few SHARPs pass through Seoul, and they are generally always looking for an excuse to make someone into their new racist arch-enemy, even here. Ironically one of them left because he realised he hated Koreans.

Most skinheads don't shave their scalps bare. When I see a guy like that I assume he's not a skinhead.

I've met a lot of boneheads in my time. Racetraitors certainly not one of them.He's one of the few skinheads I've met who really knows his stuff.
Including a lot of sixties Ska/Reggae.
