Being Straight Edge is punker than punk. It's more than a commitment to yourself, it's a statement against the machine, it's a big FU to the system that drives our society. The media (Left or Right, however you see it) and the government continue to push alchohol and cigarettes on the public like drug dealers. They put out commercials and ads selling these drugs. The Government is filled with lobbyists and lawyers that care more about the money they get from these industries than they do about the people that this government was founded upon and for.
Punks and Hippies and Yuppies have more in common than they realize. They all conform to Big Business and the Government's ties and bonds with the Alchohol and Tobacco Industries. Everytime you drink, everytime you smoke, you feed the machine, you give money to the people you say you hate.
Being SxE is so much more than being clean, it's a way to boycott, it's a way to fight and be PUNK.

Awesome statement!!! Great great blog u have here.. !!
Thnx. With so many punks thinking that drinking and drugs are a way to be deviants and punk and with so much of "normal" society and hip-hop culture and other sub-cultures acting the same, then there is nothing more punk than being SxE.
