POR FAVOR ABRAM LÁ A PESTANA!!!
5. There's a lot of confusion with the word Punk amongst the youth. Many believe it's about those pretty boy bands like NoFX, Green Day, Offspring or Blink 182. What do you think about these bands and what do you understand by Punk ?

When we speak of punk rock, we're not just talking about music, we're talking about a way of life; we're talking about a conglomerate of ideas, attitudes, dreams and principles. We're talking about a large stream of moral values, ethics, and of an important emotional and artistic fortune. We're talking about a revolutionary movement that was born from the ashes of various other counter cultural currents, like the beatniks, part of the most politicized and activist hippie movement; as well as from the incorporation of other activists and individuals who belonged to several philosophical and "contestatarias" currents, like the situationists and the movements that happened in the 60s; as well as the pacifist movement and the struggles for world disarm, the environmentalists, y and many other ists. Of course, without forgetting about the anarchist movement, which was perhaps the most important of them all, and the one who found more followers among the punk movement.

Aside from the ashes of counter cultural movements, and the philosophical and theoretical ideas already mentioned, the experience of everyday struggle and the search for new forms of artistic expression, new ways of making politics, Punk by itself started forming it's one identity and developed as a movement. Punk is not born in the simplistic manner many say. Punk is the cumulus of counter cultural, radical, revolutionary and artistic experiences. There's a very interesting phrase from Victor Garcia: "Anarchism hasn't appeared by spontaneous generation, nor has it been the creation of some genius thinker, spontaneous generation, in ideas, is so discarded as in biology". The same, we think, can be applied to the punk movement. Punk, today -at least, a great part of it- has taken a very militant course, highly committed with social struggles. It's a movement that's very alive, in action, and in constant resistance.

We're in the zapatista movement; we're with Big Mountain and their struggle for preservation in the U.S.; we're with the Siux in Canada; we're with various indigenous peoples from all America; we're with the unions, like C.N.T. in Spain and France, I.W.W. in the U.S., F.A.T. in Guanajuato and D.F., Mexico; we're in the UNAM (Mexico's National Autonomous University); we're in Food not Bombs; we're with the Black Panthers, who in some places are taking openly libertarian headings; we're with the Animal Liberation Front; we're with the Hunt Sabouteurs; we're with Earth First!, as well as many environmentalist organizations (yes!, many punks are eco-warriors); we're in the struggle form animal liberation; in feminism and in the gay movement, just to mention some of the ones comes to our memory as an examples,

Music is, perhaps, the most well known part of the punk movement, but not the only one, least the most important. There's poetry, short story and various other forms of writing, there's painting, photography, theatre. For us, talking about punk, and specifically about anarco-punk and it's various libertarian variants, is not just talking about music. So, those groups you refer to in your questions, we don't consider them part of the punk movement. Some of these bands are part of that fad created by the stereotypes of mass media. In other words, they're plain and vulgar commerce. They're make up, posture, image, superficiality, what is prefabricated, what is bought and sold by the large corporation. These bands, they have lost what is most important, what is essential to the punk movement, that is, if they ever had it an recognized themselves in it: their ethics, their principles. They have turned their backs on their own history. What about DIY? What about liberty of action? What about the constant necessity to reflect, to question, to propose, to fight? What about inconformity? Where's the struggle against passivity and everything else they promised and said? Maybe they still do, but now as automats or hypocritically instead of doing it out of sincerity of conviction.

Bands that sign complicity to big corporations or that are playing in gigs set up by governments or political parties in power, like PRI or PAN (in México), are not punk to us, they are nothing more than a contradiction. For the most part, punk was born as a movement against large multinationals and the groups in power (that are destroying the earth). Who but they are the ones that manage large capital and cause most of the social problems (wars, poverty, unemployment, hunger, violence...). These same social problems are the reason most of us joined punk in the first place, to fight them; hence our rage, our ideas, our efforts, our criticisms to the authoritarian system we show in our lyrics, in our everyday life and in various other activities we do. The movement has gotten bigger, and multinationals see the potential there to do business; then some "punk bands" sign a contract with them and, like magic, they're now using us for their benefit and selling kids in punk their own rebellion.

1st. They fuck you over (social, economical, and politically);
2nd. You rebel.
3rd. You sign complicity.
4th. They're selling you your own rebellion.
5th. Multinationals are happy because it's really good business,
the system's happy because they tame you and your helping tame others,
you're happy because they pay well. What else could you care about?
6th. Everyone's happy (everyone?, Fuck!!! No way! Not everyone!),
7th. They even dare call it punk.
8th. The conclusion is obvious, isn't it?

This isn't punk anymore, it stopped being punk ever since it degraded to the mere commercial aspect. It's just a product, a product that functions as a buffoon to large capital, just like those guys did for kings.
