Nope, it's not working for me i'm afraid.
I imagine these "right wing" punks have a lot more in common with libertarians than they do with republicans. If their cause is to limit governmental control--the primary focus of libertarianism--then I don't think it would sound much different from traditional punk music at all...

then call it libertarian punk...calling it right wing punk implies something else to me.

Left and Right refer to liberal and conservative, not Democrat and Republican...

Why do people always assume you're talking about America all the time?

Americans are just more culturally ignorant and have a harder time translating the same broad political theory into a different country's political structure.

However, as it regards America's political system, I do agree completely with violent & funky.

I think Americans' propensity to be viewed as "culturally ignorant" is directly a byproduct of our isolation by two large oceans and belief that we are the best and will never need blend to our culture with anyone else's. Yeah, this country was founded by immigration, but if you move here you better be living the American Dream...
