      Don’t think I’ve seen a bigger oxymoron before… The definition of punk is being anti-authoritarian.

        It’s in reference to the Dead Kennedys’ song with that same title. There was a rise in far right “punk music” along with early skinhead (neo-nazi) movement when the song was written. Nazi punks were trying to flood the scene and people were not letting them.

        “Nazi punks” beat the oxymoron by being anti-authoritarian, just depending on who’s authority they reject.

          I won’t tolerate any boot on any neck (except if there’s my foot in it)

            Did you think this through? Seems pretty authoritarian to me (sounds like “nobody should rule but me”)… maybe it’s a quote so I don’t get it.

            I like this bettrr: Und weil der Mensch ein Mensch ist, drum hat er Stiefel im Gesicht nicht gern! Er will unter sich keinen Sklaven seh’n und über sich keinen Herr’n.

              This wasn’t supposed to be my opinion but a nazi punk slogan invented on the spot.
