Goths are pretty accepting. Punk thinks they're accepting, but they're filled with gate keepers looking for posers. Or at least imo.
The Dead Kennedys wrote about that in their sound, ChickShit Conformist.
Punk's not dead, it just deserves to die When it becomes another stale cartoon A closed minded, self-centered social club Ideas don't matter, it's who you know
If the music's gotten boring, it's because of the people Who want everyone to sound the same Who drive the bright people out of our so-called scene 'Til all that's left is just a meaningless fad
Hardcore formulas are dogshit Change and caring are what's real Is this a state of mind Or is it just another label?
The joy and hope of an alternative Has become its own cliche A hairstyle's not a lifestyle Imagine Sid Vicious at 35
Interesting! I think for me, metal heads were the most critical. You could like all the 'right' bands and be 'in' but if you admit to liking anything other then metal (or bands the don't consider metal) you're labeled a poser.
