"I spent a good part of my teenage years running with a punk crowd, and the mortal enemies of any punk worth his salt are Nazis."
So did I. But, today, a fair number of self-styled "progressives" associate the punk scene with NeoNazis. I have gotten into many near-arguments trying to get the point across that the two were diametrically opposed. But, there's no harder head than a self-righteous liberal on a soapbox.
Too right! Trying to explain that not all punks are lefty socialists gives me a headache.
