"Punk" as a word has lost all meaning. Like so many things absorbed by capitalism, it sells the concept back to consumers with with dangerous bits stripped out.

The empire entangles you with its demands, formed and settled centuries before you existed, and pulls you into a mold that strips away the sharp, jagged and incompatible teeth of your world view, shaping you into a unique but compatible gear ready to be slot into its great engine, to ensure it's forward momentum. This process leaves you with the presentation of a radical anti-empire outsider, but to the careful observer, it is clear your movements are synchronized with the interlocking gears.
You might even be convinced that you haven't changed, but everyone changes under the weight of the empires demands.
