Medieval people burning witches and modern courts trying punks are the mainstream tyranny of heresy.
In the small town in "Bomb City", punk youths wear cockscombs, play guitars, wear nose rings, drink big wine, and swear swearing.
Punk is anti-mainstream, but does not resort to violence. Most of the punk groups are teenagers. They are not gangsters, but a group of young people who use music to vent their dissatisfaction.
Punk's resistance is essentially a coquettish act.
The most outrageous thing the punk band's originator, the Sex Pistols, did was swear at the host on a TV show.
For the mainstream society, maintaining stability is the first priority. It’s okay to make a fortune in silence, it’s okay to make a fortune, it’s okay to reverse black and white, and it’s okay to solidify classes.
Punk music, open-mouthed, relying on three chords, scolding all the power.
This kind of short and fast form has great power. For example, in "Nine-Rank Sesame Official", Bao Longxing threatened the minister of ceremonies. If you don't agree with me, I will find two storytellers under the overpass and compile the deeds of the adults visiting the brothel. Storytelling is divided into nine episodes, which are taught in turns every day.
The sharpness of punk music is still better than the allegro of the flyover, which can be seen from the lyrics.
The Sex Pistols greeted the Queen's mother directly in "God Save the Queen"; the Crash Band shouted in "White Riot", all power is in the hands of the fascist government, do you want to control yourself, or obey others? The first line of Patti Smith's "Horse," someone killed Jesus, it wasn't my fault.
In mainstream society, on the side of the couch, how can punk be tolerated?
The strangulation of punk is consistent. After the Sex Pistols made foul language on a TV show, they were immediately condemned by public opinion and suppressed by politicians. Since then, the song has been banned from the radio, and the concert has been banned by the government, and can only be performed under various pseudonyms.
At this time, the Sex Pistols were not tolerated by the mainstream, and became a demon in the eyes of Taoists. Many extreme right people even rushed to the concert scene and drew their swords.
Punk is anti-mainstream, but with music, mainstream anti-punk is multi-pronged. Among them, the most ruthless one is to stigmatize punk.
In "Bomb City", the bald lawyer attacked punk and dug out many meanings of "punk" from the dictionary, such as hooligan, waste, prostitution, prostitute, violence, inferior, etc., and used stigma to target punk youth. Spilling dirty water gives the jury a preconceived notion.
In fact, the original meaning of the word punk refers to the marginalized people or victims of the adult world. But the knife handle is in the hands of the mainstream, and the dictionary definition is also determined by the mainstream. The hustle and bustle of punk can only be another kind of violent cracking and silence.
In the movie, another major crime of punk youth is their slogan - Destry everything. This sentence has been quoted many times by bald lawyers as iron evidence that punk youth are anti-social.
Friends who pay attention to the details of the movie know that this sentence is just a lyric of the Filthy band. The meaning of destroying everything is to cut off rotten values ideologically, not to destroy property and facilities, let alone destroy life.
In fact, opposition to power and violence is precisely part of the spirit of punk.
On the jacket of a punk youth in the movie, the words "anti-war" are written in Chinese characters. There is a scene in the movie where two punks meet, one with a cockscomb head and one with a bald head, and the cockscomb punk said to the bald punk, you know, Nazis like to have bald heads. The skinhead punks fought back immediately. History did not learn well. The skinhead party was established earlier than the Nazis.
The real abuse of violence is the police.
The police forcibly broke into the house on trumped-up charges, beat up several punks, and molested a punk girl. The police searched the girl, put their hands up and down, put the pistol into the girl's mouth, took it out after a few seconds, and said awe-inspiringly, if you follow these scumbags, your father will be proud of you.
The police's suppression of punks is good. On the cover of The Clash's classic album "The Clash," five members of the band, dressed in punk attire, stand in front of the camera, with police cracking down on a riot in the background.
The punks in the movie, as weak, are often bullied by mainstream youth. Once, a few punks were bullied badly. Faced with a crowd several times their size, they fought back. During the collision, a punk was run over to death by a car.
The person who killed the punk was obviously intentional. When the movie was replayed in slow motion, the smile on the corner of the killer's mouth could be seen.
In the courtroom, despite the solid evidence, the bald lawyer can turn black and white, describe the murderer as a hero who resists violence, and condemn him, and repeatedly attack the punk youth as an anti-social instability factor, and death is not a pity.
There is a meaningful setting in the movie. The lawyer who defends punk, although he is on the side of justice, seems stammered and has no confidence; the bald lawyer who defends the murderer is righteous and has no fear.
The punk who was crushed to death was flamboyant on the outside and gentle on the inside. He wrote Dylan Thomas' lines on a billboard: Do not go gentle into that good night; he was at the pet store with his girlfriend, looking kindly and lovingly when picking pets; he was chatting with his father, holding a football, pretending Doing forward, the ball landed on the ground, the father and son smiled knowingly.
Such a young man was killed twice. One was run over on the road and one was attacked for lifestyle in a courtroom after his death.
The mainstream society, which is in a state of turmoil, regards punk as a flood and stifles it, obviously looking for the wrong object.
Lu Xun said that the people who nailed and killed the "son of man" were more bloody and bloody than those who nailed and killed the "son of God".
