I'm starting to get the feeling that all punk (at least in my area) has a "pop punk philosophy" in the sense they strive for mainstream success with a very clean tone.
what do punks want to say with their music?
where is punk now?

Who cares? Do it anyways, that's real punk. With the kind of street punk philosophy your scene has, they'll probably think it's too pretentious, but there are people who like the simpler punk of RKL and the harshness of the Contortions simultaneously.
