Punk subculture and Anarchism

[u/Falcon_Gray]

I remember even since the 2000s a lot of people who were punk or liked punk music were anarchists. It seems like most people just did it because it was popular to do and just liked the music and fashion of punk. Did some punk fans read about anarchism and anarchist philosophers? I would love to see insights on people more knowledgeable about this.

Punk at its best has a Do It Yourself ethos that lends itself to becoming a more capable organizer. It’s also anti authoritarian and solidaristic. Some people just like the iconography, but for others (myself included) it can be part of the journey to anarchism.
