punk isn't really real anymore.

It seems these days as though people don't really understand what real punk is. It is because real punk rock died many years ago. With the death of Joey Ramone, and Sid Vicious. The ideals of the original punk movements were to throw out the norm and say fuck the man. The man could be your boss or the president, or your parents. Another Ideal of the original punk movement from the 70's and early 80's was to live in a minimalist manor and Anarchy. Now many young people talk about anarchy but do not really know what it is all about or truly support it. You will not find the answers to what anarchy is on the back of a green day album. Anarchy is the belief system that there should be no government or rules and that it would basically be the law of the jungle where the weak and poor would not survive. So before you go writing anarchy all over your school binders, do you really think that it is a good idea to not have a government? Although mostly corrupt they are more than slightly necessary. Many of the punks from that era have dropped their anarchist beliefs due to the realization of the unrealistic nature of it. My mother was one of those punks, she hung out with the Dayglo Abortions and I get the pleasure to hang out with them. My mother has taught me what the old school punk rock belief system and I thought I should share it. Here are a few bands that you need to look up. They are bands from the good days.
