      I'm a '90s punk kids too and I'm definitely not in the scene anymore, but I've brought my kids to plenty of shows, and it's changed a lot. Metal has gotten even more exclusionary over time, but some of the edges of the punk scene have softened while other parts have sharpened or hardened. Just wanted to share my experience from the Seattle area scene.

They were the punchline to jokes for me and my friends. I ended up meeting the Benji through friends and went to his house for a party. He was the nicest super humble guy. Extremely normal and super down to earth. Definitely changed me and made me less judgmental of people I haven’t met in real life.

Or Sex Pistols (along with many like Motorhead(Lemme was friends with ISD btw)) they can wear swastikas because they're just "being annoying." Right. The hypocrisy is deep.

    I agree with him on skrewdriver, thing is the most public former member is mark radcliffe is a British national treasure quit the band due to their politics later went to work for factory records and radio one. I applaud the guy because he actually became one of the most ardent anti nazi's in the uk punk scene worked with bands like chumbawumba(worked with), Magazine (worked with), cardiacs (worked with) and white town(championed them on his radio show) etc. apparently it was really heavy for him because the boneheads used to send him death threats for years etc.

    Punk gatekeeping seems to be much more of a thing in the USA, where many seem to have the attitude that hardcore is somehow the only real punk. To me Crass are punk, The Toy Dolls are punk, The Damned are punk, Rumkicks are punk, Blink-182 are punk, Black Flag and The Untertones are punk, and yes, Green Day are punk. They certainly don't all sound the same, and many punks might hate some of them, but it doesn't stop them being punk. Punk is about what they have in common musically, not what's different.

If proto-punk, the stuff that punk came from, is punk, then pop-punk, a genre that came out of punk, has to be too. How much a punk museum should devote to a sub-genre is a different matter.

    Im with mike here. He builds a museum of what, as one of the most experts in the punk scene, he considers to be worthy of showcasing. Not only with a musical criteria, but with having in mind what punk, as a left-winged ideology is. Those are two separated things. So following the ideology criteria, maybe Bob Marley is more punk than Screwdrivers. So Im with Mike, again, he puts in the museum whatever he thinks to be deserving it. I would include green Day for sure though.

I started talking all the bands and stuff and they're "yea we like Good Charlotte" I didnt have cable so I had no clue whom they were.
    Saw Benji and was "they must like Casualties and Exploited"

    I believe the term he's looking for is "exceptionalism" he likes a band, and wants to include them for personal enjoyment reasons, not always historical ones.
    The issue in that is it prevents context when explaining content vs. imagery. Or ideals vs. shock value. People throw around the term "separate the artist from the art" so casually, and never really circle back to it, seemingly to avoid self examination.

    I question the notion that punk is super inclusive and welcoming. At least it wasn't in the 90s. I like a lot of kids at that time got enamored by the music and wanted to be part of it. Couldn't get gigs for my band to save my life. Every band, every venue, every promoter was so guarded, determined to weed out posers that so many people never got a chance. Maybe the scenes were super saturated at the time, but the snobby attitudes we encountered from so many people was really discouraging. 88 Fingers Louie summed up such sentiment really well in their song "Punk Rock Rulebook".
