In my experience, punks are pretty good at organizing stuff, often legit good stuff, but only on the local level and often mostly benefiting other punks and punk adjacent people. Like yeah they can throw together a pretty competent vegan soup kitchen but most of the people there are gonna be other crust-punk types. Which, hey great you're keeping each other fed but I don't see this blossoming into a larger movement anytime soon.
Having a pretty effective worldwide underground network just so broke people in bands can tour and for music distribution. There's a pretty small scene with a very good reputation where I am and we can haul in bands from Japan, Russia, Mexico, Columbia, Spain, England etc to our shitty Canadian burg which is a 12 hour drive to the next viable show cause we set people up well and generally bands make more than the travel costs, which can be rare.
It's cool and all but i think it has limited scalability
Nvm, punks suck. Went to a show where causenof whatever IT stuff thentourong band couldn't make it, no word was sent out about it and I laid down $20 and took a day off work and when I asked where my $20 was going I was called a karen
That is organizing though. The kind of shit we should all be doing. Honestly, what other kind of organizing is actually being done (in the US)?
Some of the pro-Palestine stuffs been pretty good, for the US left I mean.
