Anti-Flag rules they help let the youth know what is happening to the world and how to help it change for the better.

[Happy Emos are Hot]

i like anti flag.

[DrabGrey]

they wear stupid bright red ties, like all the other poseurs out there. too poppy sounding to be called punk as well.

[I eat worms for breakfast]

Billie Joe wares one of those "stupid bright red ties."

Shut the hell up you fuxxing poser, go listen to shitty bands like the Casualties and call yourself punk rock.

[Anti flag blows]

Too Bad Anti-flag and Some of the Lackey's especaily (one metal clown from england they know who he is). who follow them are just two face pieces of shit just like the band themselfs..
well what do you expect from some fake phony two face poseur so called punk assholes from pittsburg pa.
and that goes for rancid too who have ruined band friendships and scenes all over the world..they couldn't roll with the real deal punks i grew up with in nyc (oh why?-because they know what would happen to them.) they are all just sellouts. who might as well be closet corrupt rock jock infiltrator$ & metal heads in disguise. selling our scene out to the international mafia to undermind our movement for "$" fars i'm concern.

I do like what Anti-Flag says though but there are plenty of other bands that say it better musically and lyrically, sometimes A-F gets a little whiny, and they have picked up a very whiny oh I'm a depressed hard luck teen fan base. The sucky thing with Rancid is that they like you said have caused ties in band relationships wow I used to listen to them years back then I saw them and it's just dickworld. The thing with hardcore Anti-Flag fans is they are a bit judgemental (the straightedge thing) and they say war sucks but that's all they know about the world and their statements and beliefs come from the lyric booklets word for word if you know what I mean, but they only like the fuck war stance because it's cool to say and makes them look punk and they put Blink 182 right on their tops of fave punk "rawk"? I don't absolutely hate Anti-Flag, I do like some of their songs I just don't think they are the most influential or best. I also don't agree with the whole voting thing either, they encourage kids to vote, because it means you are voicing your opinion. I think it's bull because majority (Dem and Rep) win there's no minority party (Independent) that breaksthrough and they say we are giving this right well then it's our right to not exercise it. Just because you don't vote doesn't mean you know nothing about what's going on you just decide not to take part and help (vote) into any of the bullshit. You know what I mean? So Anti-Flag blows half of this has nothing to do with this forum, but prepared for very angry internet "punk rawk" kids to call you names and place you as a poseur dipshit. That's what's amusing I put down on a forum that I believe the Sex Pistols were a marketing tool and someone got mad then on some other site I said The Casualties suck in my opinion and someone got really mad.

[ABM]

I guess I was wrong about the whole angry kid poseur rant thing, well this is sort of a dead topic anyway.
