Great read until "intersectionality" showed up.

Please don't bring up the most irritating detail you encountered in an article. Discussions here are supposed to be driven by curiosity, and that's not curiosity. This is covered by the site guideline: "Eschew flamebait. Don't introduce flamewar topics unless you have something genuinely new to say. Avoid unrelated controversies and generic tangents."

This is especially important when there aren't any comments yet, because threads are so sensitive to initial conditions.

You mean the phrase "intersection of Southeast Asian refugee identities and punk music"?

Are you seriously so angry about feminism that just looking at a word that resembles a word you associate with feminism makes you dismiss a whole article?

The article was great, I will be interested to see the documentary especially if they've got video footage from some of the shows.

You should check out The Decline of Western Civilization, definitely video footage of some of these shows (LA specific) in that documentary.

Edit: The full documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gc4yrcdAok

Another fun fact is the director also directed Wayne's World.

There's a video of a Dead Kennedys show at Mabuhay Gardens and at the end the owner or someone working for venue gets up on stage and, exasperated, tells people to go home even though the crowd is still wired.

Please don't take threads further into flamewar, or make gotcha comments about obvious errors. That's not curiosity either.
