The punk movement of the 70s was a coarse, gritty reaction to the hippy utopian peace and love movement of the 60s, so while it still had aspects of counterculture and anti-establishment sentiment, it couldn't help but incorporate some rejection of leftism.

As I recall, Johnny Ramone was an outspoken supporter of both Reagan and Limbaugh.

Joey Ramone and yes, punk was a right wing movement whether they planned it or not.

The Ramones hated long rock songs and wanted to go back to a guitar, a bass, and a drum and make two minute songs.

Purists.

The Sex Pistols were a boy band created by Malcolm McLaren. Johnny Rotten was the only real musician in the band. He’s always been right wing anti establishment, because since the 60s the establishment has benn left wing.

I just hope he does a king Tampon song.

He used to wear a shirt that said “Kill a Commie for Mommy”.

Agreed. Just as the grunge movement was to the big haired spandex wearing adrogenous BS late 1980s rock scene.

Hear me Dee Snyder you freaking maggot!
