It's like when everybody started wearing Joy Division shirts and people who like Joy Division were like 🤦. Someone also told me the Hot Topic kids thought SLAYER was a clothes brand.
I grew up in my teens in the punk scene and they were always anti establishment so it amazed me how hard they petition against trump and now shill for the establishment. punk rock is dead again.
Funny how back in the 90s even though I was in the scene, I never dressed the part - no leather jacket with spikes and no colored Mohawk, I stayed true to myself - and a handful of haters would call ME a poseur for not conforming. Now they are all the conformist poseur scum.
Punks that dress this way are called fashion punks and are always posers. Punk is rebellion and not conformity. Hilariously enough, it's more punk rock to be conservative today, because you're rebelling against the mainstream. Oi oi oi!
TFW the entire educational, entertainment, media, and corporate world supports and funds your political ideology, but you still somehow consider yourself counter-culture.
Nope, traditional conservatives are the counter culture, not fucking Starbucks and Nike.
It's funny, because even when I was a teenager in a punk rock band, the system that I rebelled against was always big government telling me what's good for me and how I need to be taken care of. Fuck THAT system.
Bullshit, they ARE the establishment and pro-Trump pro-American is now the counter culture. Once again proving the left is both low IQ and oblivious to the ground swell.
This is what punk has become. Complete conformity. If you don't have the right label, or the right accessory, you're not punk enough. Now you have to tow the party line...or you're not good enough.
Those who are hard working, and don't want to succumb to draconian governmental overreach are the true punk now.
Wearing blackout clothes, with random holes in them, sleeve tattoos and gauges in your ears just means that you're trying too hard to be hip.
We need a good MAGA IS THE NEW PUNK meme and turn it around on them. Id be willing to dust off my docs and go back to curb stomping racists. Although I dont want a mohawk again. Too much work
"If your not a conformist, youre not a non conformist." - says the largest group of conformists.
All the sub cultures have devolved into the same carbon copy bs as the old hippies....only difference between, goth, punk, metal, pop, etc these days is the fashion....thats why none of these groups have any influence anymore.
Knew this was the case when sell out rockstars all got on their pulpit to tell me to be nice to each other and wear a mask
Somebody with more time needs to take this cartoon and make them all Antifa/BLM idiots

Thank you for stating so eloquently that which I came here to say. You deserve gold and beyond.
When will the culture realize?
I buy all my clothes at Hot Topic, I'm as real as it gets.
Cross the isle of the mall and you can stock up on butt plugs at Spencer gifts. They're always right across from Hot Topic.
Kek.

True Slayer fans skip the middle man and just carv it into their forearm with a razor. As seen on the inside of their Divine Intervention album.
True Slayer fans listen to Slayer.
Conform or else you're a non-conformist poser!
I've run into gangs of punks before. If you don't wear the cliche uniform, they don't want anything to do with you.
As with so many things, south park mocked this phenomenon what feels like a lifetime ago.
A poser. Haven't heard that little bit of shaming for like 3 decades now.
Lol.... Conformist
Reminds me of a picture I saw once, graffiti read, "Raise Anarchy!" Graffiti was then written underneath reading, "Don't tell me what to do!"
Is this satire?
That’s an oof from me
I'm literally a screamer in a metal band... they can get bent!
Metal is just as cucked dont pretend
oh do tell what music we should all be listening to
Mallcore revolutionaries.

dude listen to the song "fake punk" by strapping young lad...its about this very thing.
Yeah but we apparently still have St John Lydon on our side, so we win.
And the ramones were anti commie so there’s thay
And Ian Curtis was a loyal Tory.
It's not punk rock if they're in league with the establishment. They're posers. 100%
Punk BLM supporters be like
"I threw my soy latte on the GROUND!"

Yeah.....only thing feminism has taught me is that women are as stupid as men.
Walmart is so punk!
Punk In Fashion Only
This brings back memories of my punk rock days: Collectivism rules! I wanna be just like you! Embrace fascism!
You have a friend that posts things like this? Might want to rethink your friends.

Thats real? The picture looks like they stole one of our memes?
"be a rebel, support what every big corp and big government supports"
Leftists - “”Ill take “how to be purposefully stupid” for $500 Alex “”..
Alex : BLM movement was founded by which political party?
Democrats? ,
Communists?,
Radical Homosexual Socialist Fascists ?,
All of the Above?
Leftists “Ummmm. Who is the oppressed minority, pansexual transexual cis gendered African black Americans who are killed by police officers?”
Johnny Ramone was a staunch conservative 😂
conformity is the truest form of rebelling
Punk is having the same politics as Procter and Gamble

If your most radical opinions could all be said on the Ellen Show without controversy you may not be punk rock. -Ryan Long
Anyone who is a goth, punk or "alternative" in current year is pretty much a poser already.

Goth™, Punk®, and Alternative© have been corporate since Eddie Vedder
Is that supposed to be a boy or a girl? Or are we not allowed to care any more?
Stop appropriating my culture!
Is that Joe Jorgensen?
tattoos used to be counter culture...but then everyone got tattoos. Now it's unique not to have them.
I look at blue haired girls in crop tops and think, could they be trying any harder to fit in with hipster Brooklyn?
