I think the Indonesian punks would do well do ditch the uniform..maybe if they tried dressing as individuals they would be less likely to attract the unwanted attention of the authorities.

Idiot. A repressive and brutal government is detaining and punishing kids for dressing how they want to, and all you can do is make a trite point about punks' 'uniform'.

Well read this carefully, you odious moron, and think carefully about what you're saying. That 'uniform' is so pervasive because it is a shorthand way of expressing an attitude that people happen to share all over the world. It is like any other tribe throughout history, and there is real strength in feeling part of something like that, especially when you're expressing revulsion against such a fucked up state as Indonesia.

Those kids have more courage for dressing like that than you will ever have to muster in your entire smug and cosy little life, and now they are suffering for it.

Good point passionately made.Well,the bit where you're not name calling.

I still think a few colourful t shirts wouldn't do any harm to the cause.

 

[oh shit]

thanks for acknowledging. i hereby retract the name calling!

 

[GO]

And harmony is restored to Eirecore.

I once knew a girl that went to Indonesia backpacking and ended up marrying the chief of a village and is there still.

This whole situation is truly fucked up and a serious breach of basic human rights-1984 in 2011.

A small gesture but for anyone interested: http://abortedsociety.com/2011/12/mixtapes-for-aceh/

How about a flash call tomorrow to the consulate? I'm in and will suggest on fb...

If you have time, this seems like quite a good read to get an idea of the bigger picture in the province of Aceh
