It is a mistake to assume that the huge punk rock and its side shoot movements only resulted in sky cryers. The punks got hit first. It was a working class rebellion against the cabal and got infiltrated by what was called gutter punks who were rich kids who wanted to rebel by refusing to work conveniently giving them plenty of time to get drunk or high and wreck lives then run home to mommy and dad when it got difficult on the streets. Too bad they also influenced way too many with their political BS. These are the asshats who “cleaned up” and went on to become professors. They destroyed a perfectly good working class nonviolent rebellion in the process and also stole the look. The OGs were early black pill dispensers. Seeing the problems hidden in the systems and refusing to go along to get along. They just didn’t have all the understanding of the back room engineers driving the mass consumption for profit and gain. So many blamed capitalism instead seeing the shape of the monster but misnaming it. Also I think there were controlled opinions pushing that view too.Unfortunately many did drink the koolaid later- but they were get your hands off my life big brother- before it was cool.
Well said fren. I think you can say that about other movements that end up being coopted and losing the plot. They morph into something else while still retaining the "look."
Truth. I have seen it happen again and again. I genuinely believe it is the nature of the enemy and spreads high and low. Mimic insert take over corrupt push out originals wash rinse repeat

Thanks for the explanation.
You are probably describing the hippie movement also.
