Voice of Treason

It is not “punk rock” to embrace the worst characteristics of the dominant culture.
It is not rebellious to react to a so-called politically correct trend.
You are not swimming against the stream in an oppressively dogmatic subculture
You are working in collusion with the systems we are trying to end.

NOTES (2015):
For some folks, affirming culture, religion/spirituality, gender, may be a source of strength and I don't mean to undermine or diminish that.
When I wrote the song I was a lot less aware of my own position, and a lot less aware of how other people may have a different relationship with culture, gender, spirituality, etc... It's educational as well to engage with my own premises underlying the writing of the song.

My target audience for this song is, to a great degree, myself and people like myself - white, settler, cis-male punks who in reaffirming commitment to and identifying with their culture or ethnicity, gender or religion are committing to and identifying with racism and white supremacy, patriarchal forms of masculinity and hierarchical religions - all of which are contingent on the domination of other people.
