      Lydon stated in an interview that the reason he became an American citizen was Obamas health care, singing it's praises. Now he sits poolside in LA prattling on about the British working class and Trump being Americas only hope. He knows nothing about where Trump would lead this country..when you start saying a Nation's only hope lies with one man, you've clearly lost the plot.

    I love it. I was a punk up until about 35. John gets it. Many of you just don't get it. Instead of being angry and hateful maybe you should try to understand why John and people like myself feel the way we do. I havent cahnged at all. But the left did. I'm still about love ,honesty and answers.

      I have a great book called 'A Modern Symposium'. It's very old now but has a great take on how intellectual conversation used to be conducted. The meeting is fictional, but consists of individuals from every walk of life. There is one person who is titled as 'An Anarchist'. This person is not furious, offensive or totalitarian. The character is exploratory, open to possibility. I like the approach of questioning the way things are, but in a constructive way. As in, sure this is how things currently are, but could this be a better way of doing it. I'm not a punk or anything, but I get the ethos. I used to think punks looked aggressive for the sake of offending the cotton wool crowd, but then I eventually understood it's born out of a frustration to make the world a more accepting and fair place. Very inspiring to me. But yeah I'm more of a Fleetwood Mac / Crowded House kinda person lol

      The punk rock movement was all about inclusivity, but today now that the radical leftist wokie’s have joined and assume you can’t have your political difference from theirs or else you’re considered a boot licker. I’m still a punk in heart but if people wanna say I ain’t punk because of my conservative views then fine, I’m with you brother

      @@isaacmontoya9636 I'm with you 100%. It really just goes to show that the punk movement may have not been worth the time to begin with. It's certainly not a place for people who favor intellectual pursuits like I've always done. Or whatever, scholarly, whatever the word is. I've always liked writing, philosophy, ie., however that applies.
      The punks I've talked to, except for the ones like you who saw the fallacy on their side, are all down and ok with the authoritarianism, the lawfare, the double standards, the racism, you name it.. Going along with every point right on down the list..

      @@hiverbleu8878 I think you went off course somewhere if you are talking about me. I did change some, that's one reason of many why I couldn't continue with the left. That and the racism and antisemitism and the authoritarianism. Yes I definitely don't wish for my country to fail. I never have actually. I didn't say that or any of the things you are suggesting here. It's all good, I'm sure it wasn't intentional. 😊

    You either love or hate John Lydon - personally I love him not just because I share the same 'punk' sentiment as him, but he really speaks with complete honesty and truth and is not completely one sided - he calls the positives and negatives on both ends of the spectrum which is quite rare when asking people of this kind of stature.
