Punks hated hippies. To punks, hippies were privileged kids that could always go home and get bailed out. Punks were treated like scum and fought for what they believed in.
I guess it makes sense. But I am not talking about capitalists.
I am talking about hippies, and punks. I do not know any capitalists, but I was raised by two hippies, with lots of hippie friends. And I am a punk with many punk friends.

I understand that the word punk has to do with some kind of revolution or non conformism. The hippies could be categorised as punks.
It does look a la mode in the Western World, but do you really need to label yourself something in order to carve out a self-identity ?
Sometimes this is better than jabber !!
In solarpunk just like steampunk and cyberpunk I donโt think the punk park hold much meaning.
It is similar to porn in unixporn or foodporn. It just signals that whatever you are talking about is alao an aesthetic.
Categorizing the hippies as a kind of punk ruined my day tho.
Uh, categorizing self-absorbed hippies as punks is about as wrong as it gets ๐
Itโs not about the lable, its just a shortcut to explain a common cause and idea how to interact with one another.

Thatโs new, because where l am, l understand neither punks nor hippies. I simply know that for hippies, sex and drugs were the order of life.
Punk life was more self destructive and art aligned. Politics, drugs, sex, art, poverty, and alienation made punk, at least in the early stages.
These are features of the Western World, which l would never understand.
If l say, โPoverty is the byproduct of capitalism,โ does that make any sense to you ??
Hippies look friendly on the outside, but are rotten and nasty at their core.

Are you talking about hippies or capitalists ??
Iโve never seen any hippi though.
I never said the word capitalist.
Replace the hippies with capitalists in your sentence and then read again.
Does that make sense ??
