Reasonable post. I listen to all that old sh!t, punk, post-punk, new wave, and admittedly it was a bit weird seeing the Nazi sh!t when I first started exploring that stuff. Especially when you consider that most of that scene tends to identify with far Left political and social views. Funny thing about Joy Division too, was that their name was Nazi related in itself. Still, I think it's noteworthy that the artists from that time frame who flirted with Nazi imagery, cut back on Nazi sh!t when the National Front and Neo-Nazi Skinhead culture started to spread like wildfire in the late 70's. I suppose they didn't want to risk being identified with groups such as Skrewdriver, and as well to take a stand against views they found to be repugnant hence Rock Against Racism which sprung about in the late 70's. (then the fitting white nationalist response that was/is Rock Against Fascism). You still had individuals and people that flirted with both sides of Nazi imagery though throughout the years. Wattie from The Exploited comes to mind as well as Flanagan from the Cro Mags in later years here in the US.

Real Punks don't fukk with Nazi Scum.

Bowie was a racist but he never discriminated against any Black person for any opportunities like true White supremacist. He spent the next 4 decades advocating for, cosigning and breaking Black artist. Also leaves his filthy rich estate to a Black woman. I'm all for forgiveness if your actions align.

BTW he was acquitted of those charges of pedophilia. The same people who defend Cosby should understand.
He didn't deny fukking the underage girls tho :scust:
Same thing with Iggy Pop :scust:
This isn't a Bill situation, this is an R. Kelly situation :scust:

i knew all about that and still listened to his music, it's not a part of his past that should be forgotten at all but also it's not hard to have two opposing views at the same time
