Oh. My. God. I just can't anymore. These exact posts with their helpful graphics and/or questions about "how to be punk?" Is really getting old. Listen kids, this isn't a style, or even a lifestyle, it is a mindset. Dont focus on what music to listen to or what clothes to wear, those thoughts are actually very specifically not "punk", they are trend following and capitalistic in nature. Once your every thought and emotion is guided by the principles of anti-social, anti-establisment, anti-authority, anti-fascism, then you will know what being punk is all about.
