Punk ideology is a distinctive system of thought associated with the punk subculture that began in the late 1970's.

The philosophy is concerned primarily with an individual's intrinsic right to maximum freedom. Devotion to the idea of freedom tends to create strong beliefs in concepts such as Individualism, anti-authoritarianism, political anarchism (though not necessarily), free thought, and ethics. Punk ideology takes a hard view of the world because to a punk, most modern day societies place extensive artificial limits on humanity. Punk ideology usually achieves its expression through punk rock, fanzines, and spoken-word albums.

Punk originated as a movement of shock, rebellion and discontent, it has evolved into an overt socio-political movement for some. Bands like MC5, Discharge, Black Flag, The Stooges, Dead Kennedys, Bad Religion, Anti-Flag, Crass, Conflict, The Blood, and the Subhumans helped to contribute to this ideological climate. In their lyrics, these bands expressed serious discontent with the systems and institutions that organize and control the world. They also offered analysis and potential solutions to the world's problems. This spirit is active to this day in punk music and has matured and expanded in its range.

The political ideology most often associated with punk is that of anarchism, however punk has been associatied with other ideologies, including libertarian, left-liberal, socialist, communist anarchist, and even neo-Nazism. When punks engage in activism, their demands can usually be described as progressive. Despite the similarities punk may have with the left wing, some punks perceive the efforts of the left as ineffectual, and sometimes just as objectionable as the right wing. This article provides a rough generalization of the philosophies of groups who identify themselves as punks, and doesn't completely represent the views of all of those who do so.

For example; The Cardinal singer and writer with punk band The Blood argues that 'Punk ideology, is a subcultural movement, that challenges defiantly the smooth-clean-dream of un-freedom that, political philosopher, Herbert Marcuse wrote about in his 60s classic 'One Dimensional Man.

The Cardinal expands further on his argument of the punk ideology as a contradictory phenomena by referencing to another contemporary political philosopher; 'Marshall Berman wrote that to be modern is to be both conservative and revolutionary at the same time. Punk ideology was the chameleonic spectre of this paradox in action. Berman's 'All That Is Solid Melts Into Air' is, paradoxically, a stealth-tempest that whispers hope to those who might, in futurity, be annihilated as a result of religious fundamentalism. The Blood, were/are the iconoclasts of the inconoclasts who live/d and breathe/d the punk ideology; the subculture it unleashes onto the urban streets; the neo-political theatre of shock rock it generates.

The Cardinal concludes that 'Punk ideology, reflexively, challenges the barbed-wire-clad-mummys who repressively choreograph humankinds' civilizing process. Bob Dylan wrote; 'mothers and fathers throughout the land dont criticize what you cant understand'unk ideology demands that we dont understand what we cant criticize: that we dont bow before the mesmerizing zombie thrown.
