'punk' and 'plinth' in the same sentence?

Punk was certainly about striving to become objectified and placed on a pedestal, wasn't it?

Once a gluebag racist wanker, always a gluebag racist wanker eh? I'm sure you'll be equally 'devasted' by the fact that nothing in your post is even remotely surprising.

Just a punk


Nazi Punks Fuck Off

16.07.2010 14:52

Punk ain't no religious cult
Punk means thinking for yourself
You ain't hardcore cos you spike your hair
When a jock still lives inside your head

Nazi punks
Nazi punks
Nazi punks-Fuck Off!

Nazi punks
Nazi punks
Nazi punks-Fuck Off!

If you've come to fight, get outa here
You ain't no better than the bouncers
We ain't trying to be police
When you ape the cops it ain't anarchy

[Repeat chorus]

Ten guys jump one, what a man
You fight each other, the police state wins
Stab your backs when you trash our halls
Trash a bank if you've got real balls

You still think swastikas look cool
The real nazis run your schools
They're coaches, businessmen and cops
In a real fourth reich you'll be the first to go

[Repeat chorus]

You'll be the first to go
You'll be the first to go
You'll be the first to go
Unless you think

DEAD KENNEDYS


Lol nazi punks get lost:)

;)

POUM


spam?

16.07.2010 23:05

Isn't this just spam? Looking at the video on the link in the post the sculptor (on Dragon's Den) seems to make hundreds of thousands of pounds a year and sells sculptures for obscene amounts.

I think this post should be classed as commercial spamming and doesn't belong on Indymedia.
