Cop- Sub-Cultures

Subcultures start edgy but become conventional and commodified.

Punk- anti-capitalist anti everything- changing fashion, music, 

Different to be a punk and buy punk. Capitalism has turned a threatening movement into a joke

Death of a Loyalist Soldier -Robert Capa 

‘At that time [World War II], I fervently believed just about everything I was exposed to in school and in the media.  For example, I knew that all Germans were evil and that all Japanese were sneaky and treacherous, while all white Americans were clean-cut, honest,fair-minded, and trusting’ Elliot Aronson in Pratkanis and Aronson, (1992), Age of Propaganda, p. xii

 
‘Whereas representation tries to absorb simulation by interpreting it as false representation, simulation envelops the whole edifice of representation as itself a simulacrum.  These would be the successive phases of the image:

1.It is the reflection of a basic reality. 
2.It masks and perverts a basic reality. 
3.It masks the absence of a basic reality. 
4.It bears no relation to any reality whatever : it is its own pure simulacrum.’ 
Jean Baudrillard, Simulacra and Simulations, 1981, in Poster, M. (ed.) (1988), Jean Baudrillard: Selected Writings, Cambridge, Polity Press, page 173
