Call me pedantic, but my response to any and all "radical kindness is punk" type posts is still that you should just call yourself a hippie. Like that was the actual radical kindness movement. I'm not even saying that to be derogatory, I think the hippies were cool! I'm Californian, I owe a lot to those guys!

It's just weird to me that there's such a strong desire to ape the aesthetics of what's seen as a "cool" subculture that people are constantly try to revise the core of it when one there's a much more closely aligned one right there. Hell at this point I think I'd argue hippie fashion is a lot more repulsive to the modern conservative than punk stylings

#i think people are struggling with the fact that being contrarian for the sake of it isn't counterculture anymore#also (and this is more spitballing than fact) but i think people associate punk with being cool and masculine#and being a hippie with being cringe and feminine

@shesgonnachangetheworld being spot on in the tags

The reason hippies gained a reputation for being cringe and uncool is because punk displaced them - most hippies were in truth middle-class white people who cleaned up and abandoned counterculture when the movement faltered, and those who didn't often became punks themselves (like Joe Strummer, John Lydon and the Crass collective) because they realised that this chill "radical kindness, hope is resistance" bollocks was a resounding failure that didn't accomplish anything.

The punk movement as a political vehicle was also a failure that squandered all its potential and failed to instigate any meaningful social change, but the people of Tumblr are hung up on it as the ultimate expression of cool rebellious counterculture from the dispossessed because the movement which actually picked up that torch in the wake of punk's decline was hip-hop, and the people here who say this stupid shit refuse to listen to it because, indeed much like hippies, they're a bunch of sheltered crackers roleplaying rebelliousness from their neat white suburbs.
